A tribute to the musical and cultural legacy of Jim Pepper, a contemporary Native American jazz musician. Pepper is one of the innovators in jazz-rock fusion as well as world music. He learned peyote chants at his grandfather's knee and then went on to successfully fuse Native American music with jazz. Witchi Tai To, based on a peyote chant, has become a jazz classic.
