Message from a Drum

Message from a Drum is the third album by Native American rock band Redbone released in 1971. It was released in Europe under the name The Witch Queen of New Orleans with the same track list and a different cover.[1] The CD version released in the early 2000s has the European cover and title of the original LP and includes the single version of "Chant: 13th Hour" as a bonus track (the full version being from the second LP Potlatch). Message from a Drum would be the last Redbone album to have Pete De Poe on drums/percussions as he officially left the group.
