Redbone "Potlatch"

[Maria Pascua]

Pete’s grandparents were teachers here in Neah Bay.  He’s Siletz I think.
Some of his siblings married Makah Tribal members, so he has nieces and
nephews that are also part Makah.  He is a most excellent drummer and his
late father was a wonderful piano player – really talented.

On the best radio station in the world (WFMU of course), I just heard a song
by the early-1970s band Redbone titled "Potlatch".  After a bit of googling,
I found that one of the band members was from Neah Bay.
