    Moondog The Viking of Sixth Avenue

    Honest Jon's

    Tremendous gatefold presentation and one of Honest Jon's most impressive documents to date. This is the first overview of Moondog's amazing artistic life -- including recordings spanning from 1949 till 1995, with numerous 78s and various other vanished records revived for the first time (not to mention a couple of Weegee photographs)!

    Highly recommended!
