Awesome video man. I'm just becoming familiar with Moondog thanks to a friend in the UK. Very cool and instructive at the same time.

For your pleasure =)

This is great! Now I, a young musician can learn the tempos and listen to Moondog at the same time! Great.

i thought this was called "1 to 9" (?) maybe im mistaken....my copy of this song is much different but the song i have called 1 to 9 is identical to this one....

these are time signatures, not tempos, but nice beats nonetheless

mental note: next time in NYC must make pilgrimage to 425 West 57th. who for? moondog couldn't know, but listening, amazed, i think, for me. what for? this music is so surprising, seems to be for nothing if not the sheer wonder of hearing, the beauty of the beats. terrific visuals, such fun, a wonderful illustration

wow dude, beautiful video. all the different pictures, like every beat is an entity of it's own, not just an electronic loop by a machine ... so philosophical!

[alexookpik]

@hectorsland Moondog often gave his compositions different names over the years
