      Hi Folks - We had a great day and nite on Saturday, March 18th. My new band - the Moogy Klingman Band, did a live radio concert in the afternoon right in the middle of the FM dial. It was Radio Free Eiareen on WBAI 99.5 FM and the concert went very well. Even Ian Lloyd came down to sing "Brother Louie" and help promote the concert that nite at the Cutting Room.
      The Cutting Room show that nite went very well, indeed. A packed house heard my band do a close to 90 minute set of all Moogy songs. With a new line-up including Jim Satten on guitar, and Aisha Hinton on vocals and band vets Denny McDermett on drums and Even Steven Levee on bass, the band locked in and rocked the house!
       Then I did half the set with Ian Lloyd and Stories as guest keyboardist. That was lots of fun and the audience loved Ian as well. We finished up the whole nite with "Brother Louie" followed by a duet of Ian and myself on the Beatles, "You Can't Do That". 
        It was a great day and nite and you just had to be there and if you weren't, we have soundclips coming to this website very soon.

Upcoming Releases

Moogy Klingman performs in the new Bon Jovi video,"Welcome to Wherever You Are"
for sooned to be released single.

        Yes, folks, you heard it here first. Friday, Aug. 12th, 2005 - I played two different characters who play the keys in the new Bon Jovi video. Titled "Welcome To Wherever You Are", it's a big, hit bound track that we filmed on the lower east side of Manhattan. Down on Pitt Street and Ave D with a film crew of at least 100 people, it sure seemed like a big deal.
        I got to play keyboards made up as a Napolean type and as a person in a plastic anti-germ outfit, complete with goggles and earphone type head gear. Included here are two pix of me from the shoot. Watch for it soon!

SPECIAL SALE! BUY 2 CDs for $20 click for details
The same years that Todd was with the Nazz, I was with a group called the Glitterhouse. Now available at my website is the CD "The Glitterhouse - the almost complete recordings, 1966 to 1975"  - This almost forgotten group came mostly from my hometown, Great Neck. The drummer from Great Neck was good friend Joel O'Brien. He later went on to play with James Taylor in the Flying Machine and on Jame's first solo album for Apple records. Joel also played with Carol King on many of her early albums including "Tapestry", the biggest selling album of the early seventies.
     The leader of the Glitterhouse was Mike Gayle, also from Great Neck. He wrote, sang and played lead guitar on most songs. His greatness as a songwriter and musical force cannot be emphasized enuff. ...

Music from Freek Creek - the long lost supersession album, order it here at moogymusic.com      The rare Music From Free Creek album featuring Eric Clapton is finally
available on CD. This album was done in 1969 and has been written about in many books about Eric Clapton,  Jeff Beck and even Todd Rundgren who appears on one cut.

Old Times, Good Times,

It was a good ole time of utopian dreams and Capitol schemes. It was a time when I knew then, that you gotta have friends. Though a quarter century away, the music still sounds vital today. Moogy & the Rhythm Kings would meet a wizard named Todd and the musical sparks would fly! Kings would soon turn Utopian. So here is a musical blue print of these flying sparks, presented for your listening pleasure!

"Take Your Place in The Freak Parade"
In 1973, I was playing in a band called "Moogy and the Rhythm Kings". A friend of mine named Todd Rundgren asked me to form a band with him. It was to have a futuristic vision and bringing most of the members of my band with me, we formed "Utopia". 
In the year, 2000, I was playing in a band called "Moogy and the MoJo's". I was approached by a long lost friend of mine named Kevin Ellman, who asked me to form a band with him. It was to have a Utopian vision and bringing most of the members of my band with me, we formed "Freak Parade".  With Katia Floreska, Even Steven and Don Celenza, we started gigging in Manhattan. And then we did these recordings at home in the moogy music studios.
A combination of old Utopia and newer - bluesier material........ here tis. Hope you like it.
The First Recordings

     This CD includes all Moogy songs from his early days including rare and previously unreleased material with many of your favorite musicians including Todd Rundgren, original Utopia members Ralph Schuckett and John Seigler and other rock legends such as Rick Derringer and Buzzy Linhart


The Buzzy Moogy Sessions

This CD documents many NYC sightings, when Buzzy would show up at my house and music would be made and songs would be written. Sometimes, we'd write songs and play gigs with bands. Sometimes, we'd just do radio shows (like the one included here). Starting with 1983 and concluding in 1994, this album contains nothing but great stuff, start to finish (74 minutes worth!).

Notes: A very special event occurred at the Triad Theater in NYC on October 2nd of 2002. A historic reunion took place of former Todd Rundgren band members, including Moogy Klingman's Freak Parade (with original Utopia drummer Kevin Ellman) and Stewkey, lead singer of the Nazz. Special guest Godfrey Townsend (lead guitarist/vocalist of the Who's John Entwhistle Band) joined in for the fun. He has spent the last few summers touring with Todd Rundgren in the Beatles tribute band, "A Walk Down Abbey Road." These great artists came together to celebrate their association with Todd and the wonderful music that their fans cherish
