Thesis title: Songs of Our Grandfathers: Music of the Unami Delaware Indians (UW Music Library)

Related materials: field collection of Delaware music (76-19.1-11)

Contents: Tape was incorrectly recorded - most of side 1 erased when side 2 recorded (1/2 tr. mistaken for 1/4 tr.). What remains is as follows: side 1 - Vision song 1, versions a-e (see detailed list in doc file) (version e cut-off abruptly) (at this point side 2 is heard playing backwards); side 2 - item #20 (on list in doc file) - 10 War dances through item #29 - Fun songs (NOTE: See collection 76-19 for items that should be on 76-20.1 but were somehow deleted.)
