Subj: Seeking Moondog

Just heard a piece on National Pubic Radio about a composer, uses the
stage name Moondog, apparently both quite eccentric--has lived on the
street in Manhattan, keeps time with a bass drum to each beat, a friend
of Stravinsky's--and quite remarkable, the stuff they played of his
(mostly for Saxophones) was really interesting.

Anyone have a name, a publisher, a contact of any sort on this man? I
am, of course, also contacting NPR.

Thanks,

Robert Howe
