Peter,
    The demise of Music, Primitive is described in detail in Music cataloging
bulletin, v. 12, no. 5 (May 1981), p. 2-5: Music of ethnic and national groups.
Since the heading was judged to be pejorative, it was not replaced by any
specific equivalent. (You would need to revise individually any record in which
it appears.) For instance, in LCCN 75-35130 (OCLC #4137532) and 72-10010
(#447351), which are among the last uses of the heading in LC cataloging, it
was simply eliminated; the other headings in those records were adequate to
represent the subject content of the books.
