Here is a review from the psyche van het folk website:
VanguardRobbie Basho : The Voice of the Eagle (1972)****°
After hearing his first album in re-examining his work I think I realise it sill has a certain roughness despite its great ideas. If I think of Steffen Basho Junghans "Songs of the earth" developing the same style I realize how an advanced technical skill can enrich the original subject. Now having heard Robbie's 1972 album I realise there must be much more unknown potential in Robbie's records. The singing of Basho which is very individual but which is clearly influenced by Indian singing, Yma Sumac and much more might seem odd to some. If it weren't so professional this could be a questioning, but the advancement in the searching of the voice with the accompany of the guitar becomes very adventurous like this. Basho had experimented so much already with every kind of string based ethnic musical foundation that any further exploration done on this album is so spontaneous you might forget how much new areas has been opened already open to new and fresh sounds, in fact binding all kinds of people and its creativity fundaments in freedom of expression together.
For not being related at all to American Indian music Basho made out of curiosity and self expression a real gem for progressive music based upon American native elements.
