The record

Prestige gave this a 7000-series number, but what is on it is street recording -- conversation and music at 51st and 6th in New York, a duet for whistle and bamboo pipe, ostrich feathers played on drums, pieces counted in 7/4 and 6/4. Moondog is credited on piano and vocals. Rudy Van Gelder cut the lacquer.
