Various artist compilation, featuring the track "Slow War Dance, Vietnam Song" (New World Records # NW 343), released in the post-war 80s period. This particular track was recorded "live at the sixth annual Kihekah Steh Powwow, Skiatook, Oklahoma, in August 1975". The lead of the song was credited to Jack Anquoe. Notes on the record, about this track, said: "The honoring of veterans is an important part of the powwow. This stately song is dignified and less exuberant than most war dances".
