The name of this outstanding album is called "Night Walk" and is another winner in his incredible music career. According to his website, Joseph began imitating the drummers he watch while growing up. However, it was the flute that really memorized him and the first time he heard the flute was when he was a young boy living on the  Northern Cheyenne Reservation located in Southeastern Montana. Mr. FireCrow said "the music was beautiful to my ears". In 1992, FireCrow recorded an album entitled "The Mist" and in 1994 he released another self-published entitled "Rising Bird". Then in 1996, he released third album entitled "FireCrow" on the Makoche label and it immediately became the best selling album the label. In fact, in a review by Echodisc, the review stated: Joseph FireCrow is quite simply one of most gifted players of the Native American flute, this beautifully recorded" In addition, the album entitled "Cheyenne Nation" earned a Grammy at the 43rd annual awards. This album was a mixture of soulful flute, traditional flute and contemporary playing. FireCrow has both a national and international following.
