The long awaited follow-up album to Kokopelli's Cafe. Features Nakai's cedar flute virtuosity, the Eco-spiritual jazz vocalizations of bassist Mary Redhouse, the sun-fired sax and keys of Amo Chip and the pan-global percussive pulse of Will Clipman to fuse diverse traditions into a jazz expression haunted by the experience of Native America.

CD Reviews
Excellent CD - one of my favorite Nakai CDs

"A little while back I had the fortune of listening to the Carlos Nakai Quartet when they played outside under some trees at a native american art sale being held at the U of A. I was already a fan of Nakai's solo pieces... After they played a selection from this album (Crow Canyon) I knew I'd have to jump up and buy a copy of Big Medicine. I was not disappointed. Lots of great music on this Album - several favorites. I'm not sure if the short clips available for online play really show how good the music is on this album."

"Being a large fan of R. Carlos Nakai, I am very familiar with much of his work. This is one fun and fine piece of work and shouldn't be missed."
Seemless union of Indigenous and Jazz music.

"When the heart and mind open and express it's true feelings in no matter what country or culture, nothing but pure art flows out to a receptive one. That is the case here with some of the most Soulful music I have ever felt! One of the favorite cd's to play on The Blues Power show and Jazz show at 1490 KOTY AM Yakima Nation Radio in southcentral Washington state."
