		In April, 1884, the Crow left the Absaroka Mountains and moved to the valley of the Little Bighorn River to a “permanent reservation” with headquarters at the present-day Crow Agency.

	Review
		On Cheyenne Nation, Joseph Fire Crow plays some of the most eloquent American Indian flute music, based on his heritage on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation in Southeastern Montana.
		Ken Burns chose some of Fire Crow's music to be included on the soundtrack for Burns' documentary, "Lewis and Clark: The Journey of the Corps of Discovery," and it's time that a wider audience got a glimpse of this American Indian talent.
		Joseph's recorded on the Makoche, Earthbeat and Sattva labels, in addition to self-produced disks that he sold only at concerts in Indian Country.

		The Court's analysis of that claim lends weight to the conclusion that the bed of the Big Horn belongs to the Crow Indians.
