Elpmas is an album by the American composer and musician Moondog, released in 1992 via Kopf.
[1] Elpmas was recorded at Academy of St. Martin's in the Streets, a studio in Germany owned by Andi Toma.
[2] "Blue" Gene Tyranny of AllMusic described it as a "wonderful CD built from environmental sounds, gently rocking marimbas, lovely counterpoint for winds, foot-taping rhythms, and sweetly sung wisdom from a chorus".
[3] Moondog's biographer Robert Scotto called it "the strangest of his German productions and in many ways the most like his earliest New York albums".
[1] He wrote that it primarily appealed to those who appreciated Moondog's eclectic side and propensity to move his music into new phases and that it confused those who expected a unified expression.
