    When the Guardians of the Galaxy movie came out, my son fell in love with the song and I told him at the age of 11yr the song Was played by Native American. we are Australian Native of far North Queensland of Warrungu. (Rain forest tribe) We love this song and redbone tribe. Thank you for sharing this.

      Sorry but Redbone is a name, not a tribe. The name is not that old and is a discription of a red painted pipe thus the name redbone. Oldman Redbone it's where the name came from. Its also Apache in origin.

      @@JamesBuggemo It's called respect my man. Plus, in case you weren't aware, there is some significant history of pain and suffering of Native Americans. It's not talked about, but it's honestly on the level (and, while not a popular opinion I believe surpasses) the atrocities of slavery. We are talking genocide here. So, yeah, have some respect. The OP knows a little about genocide since Australian indigents have been struggling for centuries against abuse and genocide. It wasn't until the 80s and some enterprising people, including Midnight Oil, who brought the rest of the world vision into those atrocities. The lead singer of that group went on to serve in some political capacity as well - I don't remember the details now - so it wasn't just a bunch of young men letting out their angst.

    My BFF was dating the Road/Tour Manager of Redbone, so we saw them often is 1971-72. Those concerts were a lot of fun, one of our best friends (still) is 100% Navaho, she and her 10 siblings were good friends with me and my siblings. Fun memory of playing ping pong with this guy, Glenn, at a Redbone concert, he told us he was on the Olympic team going to China, he was the real table tennis player that Forest Gump was photoshopped into. I was watching the Olympics with my dad, also named Glenn, and I saw the cute long brown haired Glenn, who wore Aviator glasses like my young dad, and I told dad I knew him and had played Ping Pong with him, and that his name was Glenn, dad knew we knew lots of people, but he was surprised by that. Thanks, Redbone for all the great memories!!!

      Yes we know how everyone in America has a great great grandmother of Cherokee decent, a warrior princess that was captured, but fought her way to her lover who was Apache and they took a canoe across the Mojave desert and then they climbed the Colorado Mountains during a Blizzard, where she kept them alive by using her own flesh she cut from her thigh to use as bait to feed him and their first child. Then she was captured by the Iroquois who killed her husband and son. But she was brave and courageous and won over the chief's highest council, who helped the 5 Nation's to fight and win against the Algonquin and to help over throw the British and formed what we now know as the state of New York.
      Yes we all know about your Great Great Native Grandmothers.

      1: It is funny you called them Red.

    From Wikipedia: Redbone is an American rock band formed in Los Angeles, California, in 1969 by brothers Pat and Lolly Vegas. All members during their commercial peak and success were of Mexican American and Native American heritage, which heavily reflected in their songs, stage costumes, and album art.
    They reached the Top 5 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1974 with their hit single, "Come and Get Your Love". The single went certified Gold selling over a million copies. It also made Redbone the first Native American band to reach the top five on the US Billboard Hot 100, with the song reaching number 5.[1] Redbone achieved success with their singles "We Were All Wounded at Wounded Knee", "The Witch Queen of New Orleans", "Wovoka", and "Maggie" in the United States, although these songs were more successful overseas.
    Pat has been the sole member of the band since Lolly's death in 2010.

    My great-great-grandmother was also native, she was an Indian, I believe she was of Cherokkee blood too, her name was Clementine she ran away from the village, from the bush running with my grandfather who became her husband, and they ran away from the bush , from the indigenous reserve in thoses ancient times, and married my grandfather, my great-great-grandfather was almost killed, burned alive while tied to a dry tree trunk, my great-great-grandmother, that Indian woman, felt sorry, she had compassion, she felt sorry for him then he untied my grandfather from the trunk, while the other's Indians were looking for firewood, sticks to make a fire to burn my great-great-grandfather alive at the stake, then he took her to the big city, to the urban area, they got married, and untill my great-great-grandmother captured the our language, our local language in my country, was a lot of work, and for him to live the habits, the tradition, the habits, and customs of high society, of the urban area, it took work, it gave her something to do to get used to it.
