A
re-release on CD for an album he recorded for Prestige in the mid-fifties.
The music includes recordings made in the
street and the instruments include drums that Moondog invented himself
and are called "oo" and "yukh". He uses unusual time signatures - this
obviously led on to the experimentation on the 1969 Moondog album that
had classical-style music with syncopated rhythms.
