Wikipedia page re: the Moondog recording: "Blue" Gene Tyranny of AllMusic described it as a "wonderful CD built from environmental sounds, gently rocking marimbas, lovely counterpoint for winds, foot-taping rhythms, and sweetly sung wisdom from a chorus".

Did not know that Blue Gene wrote reviews for AllMusic. Something to look forward to finding and reading.
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 5:44pm

Blue wrote extensively for AllMusic and always insightful and supportive, of course.

Hi david and Ridgewoodians. It’s been a long day without music. That’s getting fixed right now.

My lovely wife is demonstrating some of the Merce Cunningham choreography that goes with/not-with this David Tudor for me.

The venue in Ridgewood where ranjit is going (I'm guessing) is called TV Eye.

@6:00 @Listening Out There: A few minutes of online searching and seems the documentary is in "post-production" (sez imdb site) at best. There is a website for the doc, www.thevikingof6thavenue.com... which seems have no update since 2018 or so.
