Our Take

In the eclectic world of avant-garde music, few names shine as brightly as Moondog. The enigmatic composer, known for his Viking helmet and eccentric street performances, has once again bemused and delighted fans with his latest release, aptly titled "More Moondog."

From the moment the opening track “Street Scene” hits your ears, it’s clear that Moondog is in fine form. His signature blend of classical influences, jazz flourishes, and tribal rhythms is on full display, creating a soundscape that is both challenging and captivating.

Tracks like “Bird’s Lament” and “Symphonique #6 (Good for Goodie)” showcase Moondog’s unparalleled ability to meld seemingly disparate genres into a seamless whole. The use of unconventional instruments and off-kilter time signatures only adds to the album’s charm.

But it’s not all serious business in Moondog’s world. Tracks like “High on a Rocky Ledge” and “All is Loneliness” inject a playful sense of whimsy into the proceedings, reminding listeners that music doesn’t always have to be a cerebral exercise.

Ultimately, "More Moondog" is a testament to the enduring genius of its creator. With this album, Moondog once again proves that he is a true musical pioneer, unafraid to push the boundaries of what is considered “normal.” So put on your Viking helmet, sit back, and let the sounds of Moondog wash over you. You won’t be disappointed.
