It's My Way! is the first studio album by the folk musician Buffy Sainte-Marie. It was released in April 1964 through Vanguard Records. It was later released in Britain in early 1965 by Fontana Records. The album would become influential in the folk community. It is most famous for two widely covered folk standards, "Universal Soldier" and "Cod'ine", as well as "Now That the Buffalo's Gone", a lament about the continued confiscation of Indian lands, as evidenced by the building of the Kinzua Dam. The cover features a mouthbow, which was to be a trademark of her sound on her first three albums.
Writing for Allmusic, music critic William Ruhlman gave the album 5 of 5 stars and wrote "This is one of the most scathing topical folk albums ever made ... Even decades later, the album's power is moving and disturbing." - Wikipedia
