Willie Dunn, legend, icon, Grandfather of Aboriginal music

The late Willie Dunn, legend, icon, Grandfather of Aboriginal music. The album that started it all "Akwesasne Notes". His last album Son of the Sun (2005). Nothing has changed for Aboriginal people as Willie informs us. Many of the issues he highlighted in 1880s to the 60s and 70s are just emerging. Albums were produced in Germany.
