Two hours of experimental music including KAS, Gong, McCoy Tyner, Motorpsycho, Aphex twin, and our featured album is the gorgeous uncategorizable compositions of Moondog. Born Louis Thomas Hardin, Moondog was a musician, poet, inventor and icon of the Manhattan streets. Known as the 'Viking of 6th Avenue', Moondog wrote over 80 symphonies and was once described as the godfather of minimalism, a label he refuted. Blind from childhood, he largely learned to play music by ear, and his work drew admiration from Frank Zappa, Elvis Costello, Igor Stravinsky and millions of music fans across the world.
