''Moondog 2'' is the sixth album by American composer Moondog AKA Louis Thomas Hardin. This album was the followup to the 1969 album ''Moondog''. Produced with James William Guercio, it featured Moondog's daughter June Hardin as a vocalist. Unlike his previous more minimalist instrumental album, ''Moondog 2'' contains vocal compositions in canons, rounds, and madrigals.〔http://www.allmusic.com/album/moondog-compilation-mw0000690971〕 In the liner notes to the album, Hardin states he first began writing rounds in the late winter or early spring of 1951 but soon moved on to instrumental music. But after he'd heard in 1968 that Big Brother and the Holding Company had recorded "All Is Loneliness" he took to writing them again.〔Sleevenotes for ''Moondog'' album, 2001 Beat Goes On reissue〕 The album has been re-released twice as a 2-for-1 CD combining ''Moondog'' and ''Moondog 2'': once by CBS in 1989, and once by Beat Goes On Records in 2001.〔Sleevenotes for ''Moondog'' album, 2001 Beat Goes On reissue〕 ==Reception== Big Brother and the Holding Company featuring Janis Joplin covered the song "All Is Loneliness" on their 1967 self-titled album. The song was also covered by Antony and the Johnsons during their 2005 tour. New York band The Insect Trust play a cover of Moondog's song "Be a Hobo" on their album ''Hoboken Saturday Night''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Moondog 2」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
