I see that Dan Bodah played a Gregorio Paniagua track following a Moondog track on 2/14/14: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/54493 This music and RRN63's comment above brought to mind Paniagua and, in particular, his series of Harmonia Mundi recordings recreating early musics.

This is my favorite Moondog song. :) It makes me think of old cartoons working on a fast-moving assembly line. It's like a better "Powerhouse."

I still have the 1953 10-inch 'Moondog and His Friends'. Scratchy but it still plays; and the version of 'Theme and Variations' is simply hypnotic.

Kinda just wanted to hear the full show, but all I could get from the MP3 players was the beginning of the songs, cutoff and repeating the same sample....

Could you please upload the moondog show as a podcast?! Pretty please with stardust on top?!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:57am
Irwin:

You're having buffering problems, Wakka, but there's nothing wrong with the archived audio. It's your internet connection. Try again later. We can't release the show as a podcast because it contains copyright-protected music.
