Comment:
Merriam and d'Azevedo (1957) is one of the few sources on Washo music in particular Vennum also cites a 55 minute film entitled "Washoe," produced by Western Artists Corporation (Santa Barbra, California). This recording was originally entered in the database as Series #105, but it has been changed to Series #106 in accordance with the Keeling Binder.
