Hmmmm, well, I'd say try Porcupine Singers (they have 8 or 10 tapes I think). Also, there is a book/tape set byt he thitle "Songs and Dances of the Lakota" written by Ben Black Bear Sr. and R.D. Theisz. Mr. Black Bear was a singer with the Ironwood Singers (also a good Lakota group), and Mr. Thesz is/was (?) a singer with the Porcupine Singers. Another good Lakota group is the Badland Singers. If memory serves, these three groups also have the words to their vocable songs in the liner notes. Hope this helps!
