Speaking of Huck Finn songs, I just had the great 
pleasure of seeing "Big River" as part of the City 
Center Encore Series in NYC -- as most of you 
probably know, it's a musical based on Adventures 
of Huck Finn, words & music by great country music 
songwriter Roger Miller.

Really enjoyed the show.  The young actor/singer 
portraying Huck was outstanding.  Occasionally 
these limited-run revivals at City Center spur 
interest in a full-fledged Broadway revival.
