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

Wow. Famous Canadian author Thomas King recently discovered that he is not indigenous.

King grew up believing his father was part Cherokee. His acknowledgement of this newly learned truth in Monday's Globe is a sharp contrast to Buffy Sainte Marie's refusal to address conflicting genealogical records.

But these stories are all so damaging and painful to both Canada and its indigenous communities.

Spent the weekend off my face on painkillers (taking my ear to the doctor tomorrow) but thinking of this song each time I swallowed a dose ...
