Notes

Blood Sweat and Tears welcomes listeners to the Monogram Hunters’ Sunday night Indian practice at the First and Last Stop Bar. The chants and ringing tambourines of the Black Masking Indian tribe were recorded live at the 7th Ward establishment, capturing the authentic spirit of this long-standing tradition. The sound represents the closest one might come to experiencing the passion, power and fun of practices where unmasked members of the tribe hone and pass on their rituals to the next generation.
