Boine’s Gula Gula album was released by Peter Gabriel’s RealWorld label on July 1990. The front cover (see illustration), featured an iconic image of the tundra in the far north, the eye and face of a snowy Owl. Curiously, the front cover did not include the album’s name, nor Mari Boine’s face. The back cover featured the name Mari Boine Persen, her surname, which identified her as a Norwegian, rather than a Sami. The 2007 release on her Lean label explicitly names Mari Boine and her Sami surname. It also shows her (see illustration), in full Sami costume as an shamanistic dancer for her people. The white background, similar to the snowy owl from the original release, hint at the snows north.
Boine was invited to perform at the 1994 Winter Olympics, Lillehammer. She declined because she saw the invitation as an attempt by a minority to add to the ceremony.
The Guardian, in its 2010 F&M playlist of songs “they just can’t turn off”, describes My Friend of Angel Tribe with the words “Norwegian Sami singer Boine, with this soft, melancholy and utterly mesmerising song.”
