With lyrics by Grammy Award winner Roger Miller, Big River captures the spirit of Mark Twain's classic tale of Huckleberry Finn, America's favorite non-conformist scamp, as he flees the confinements of civilization with his friend Jim, a runaway slave, floating down the Mississippi on a raft.--Cover
