[Rtbull1]

Pineapple express anyone..? No? Just me?

[vernonsullivan92]

the military snare is perfect

[kurt2rsenjazz]

What a gem

[MeliaTheAzedarach]

wow!

[42connorzielinski42]

WTF genre is this? Its not quite jazz, not quite classical, not quite a viking hymn, some sort of mix of those and others.

[geraskrip]

Fuck I thought it was mr.scruff

[vilen26]

what can i say its just simply amazing.the sax just draws you in.i can never get tired of it

[polymath7273]

Moondog was not in any meaning of the word insane. He was a wonderful blind man from NY. We were housemates in Hamburg Germany and played music together.

Finally, the Lincoln LS commercial song.

"Get A Move On" completely raped this song.

@videogamer810

No. 

[Brucy6666]

I keep expecting to hear the Mr Scruff version kick in because I heard it first :P

The original is nice though :)

[LIGHTRONIX]

Mr. Scruff - Get A Move On

[akareine]

The worst part is after 1:43

[Leheno]

@akareine No. just no.



[akareine]

@Leheno ? I was having a bad day, and this was the only song that made my day that much better.

[sheldons7]

HELP!

I heard a slower version of this song in the movie Pineapple Express and I cannot find this particular version. If anyone knows where I can find it, or what I am talking about can you let me know please and thanks.

[CCEX]

@sheldons7 This is the version reissued on Moondog's "The Viking of Sixth Avenue" compilation I think this was originally on his 1969 Columbia LP.  He recorded again at a faster tempo on his 1994 release :Sax Pax for a Sax"

[DONTWATCHTHATYEAH]

@sheldons7 I've heard a slower version on Sax Pax for a Sax, I found it on Spotify.

[MelosRecordings]

@sheldons7 just buy it on itunes its the slower one :)

[FakeBestFriend17]

I only know this because of Pineapple Express, but it's an amazing piece of music!

[ildaelmonte]

Adore it

[starcalibre]

moondog - epitome of insane genius

[foilseal]

@starcalibre there's no insanity to speak of

[lore1012]

the sampler of Mr Scruff it's just better than this; but it's really good 'cause this song is really amazing!

I LOVE this song. I hear it since I know it every day. And this version of the "Bird's Lament" is really good.

[hyperverbal]

@mp3stick I agree.
