Four Mexican guys from east LA that speak Spanish, look like Julio from Sanford and Son and Richie Valenzueala of LaBamba fame, put on a skirt, go-go boots, make-up, a feather on their guitars and ALL claim they're friggin' Injuns. WTF? Only in America can Mexicans claim they're anything but Mexicans.....unreal......VIVA LA MEXICO!
kinda fast, hey but i LOVE LOVE LOVE whatever that indian language Lolly was singing and i give recognition of it Lolly, i Love it. Oh yes. i don't know about all the cherokee in my family only told about it, but Lolly does something for me with his eyes and that language. im thankful. i enjoy Lolly. thankyou Lolly. Thankyou REDBONE. THANKYOU.
This is a little side take version of the song, some of the words are diff too. THe synthetic addiditon is cool, never heard it befor. thanks for posting. Vegas brothers have an interesting history, Anyone looked at the interview? ( Interview Redbone 2004) Interesting if you are a fan.
Understand the music of Redbone, enlighten yourself on the concept of "Manifest Destiny" (Wikipedia). Mexicans are Mayan/Aztec Indians. They share the same DNA of all the original people, natural born heirs, of North, Central and South America.
By the way....the Vasquez brothers were only a small part Indian. They mainly hispanic. They just played up their Indian heritage which was only a small part.
What exactly constitutes small? Being hispanic in a large part can mean you are Indian (mayan, zuni, etc). By saying they are mostly hispanic could mean anything from 1/2, to even 3/4 indian. It doesn't mean they are mostly white.
I interpreted that person's comment was they assumed being hispanic was something other than indigenous, implying what I assume to be caucasion. And what was only the 'small part' of their Indian heritage? Only 1/16th or something? I'm not entirely sure what their definition of Hispanic is. Hispanic only means Spanish speaking peoples, which can include any blood quantum of any race. Usually in Central/S.America many Hispanic peoples have significant amounts of indigenous blood.
what money would they do that with ? and what motivation would they have when almost everyone they know doesnt ever leave and alchohol addiction rate is higher in indians than any other race in the world?
i told him the QUALITY of the video was bad, and he starts talkin about i dont understand as he does the words from thier lips and they are beautiful people as he is? sounds like a fuckin wannaba medicine man....that had nothing to do with what i even said? both yall are fuckin dumb but i guess in ur eyes when someone says somethin that not even a proper respeonse 2 the person hes talkin to, then thats "truth" haha im an indian to.....and both yall sound like wannabes
Seems you are a black bird, as I have suspected. Well black bird are you from a tribe in Oklahoma one that your people say is not recognized? I have spoken to many black people (AKA)black birds, and 90% say the same thing the other 10% say they are Blackfoot. so where may you say you are from black bird?
why the harsh words, whats wrong with his talk? if u dont have anything nice to say then dont say it at all, he is speaking the truth...u dont understand,go for it whitewingbuffalo.
what wrong with his talk is i didnt say ANYTHING about how good or not the band was....."They are beautiful people if one would only take the time to listen to what is being said, then maybe one will understand the words that are spoken of their lips and their tongues as I do." i also said nothing for this stupid ass response? ur a fuckin idiot to? what truth is he speaking? that u randomely tell people that tell people stupid shit that has nothing to do with what u just said??
can u even fuckin read??? or know how to speak english?? quit trying to sound like some smart old medicine man....." you would understand as do i and hear them as do i and live in peace and be beautiful" what the fuck are u talking about ??
They are beautiful people if one would only take the time to listen to what is being said, then maybe one will understand the words that are spoken of their lips and their tongues as I do.
why are you being a video hatter, can you do any better? if not then do not watch what you do not want to see. I love them and not just because they are of the same race as I, but because they are beautiful people as so am I. Love yourself; and live in peace...
u dumbass i want talking about the video..... i like the song or i wouldnt listen to it....the QUALITY of the video is horrible...just plain horrible.....and im an indian to so stop with that beautiful people shit to
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, you can look it up.Redbone was an American rock group that was most active in the 1970s. The band was formed initially in 1968 in Los Angeles, California by the brothers Pat Vasquez (bass and vocals) and Lolly Vasquez (guitar and vocals). The name Redbone itself is a joking reference to a Cajun term for a mixed-race person; the band's members being of mixed blood ancestry
i read it there, and i also know the drummer, personnel, pete de poe, he comes from my home town. I asked him and he said yes, they interview them, and than he also was given time to answer questions
No, whites don't ALWAYS cheat indians. That is like saying that indians are ALWAYS content with choosing to sit around the reservation everyday in a drunken stupor instead of getting an education or a job.
LOVE THIS SHIT BAD ASS BACK IN 70S

This is from Redbone's "Live" album of 1977 with Pat in control of proceedings.
Wonderful extended version with Lolly scatting in his own unique style.
