Moogy Klingman
Mark "Moogy" Klingman was a founding member of Todd Rundgren's Utopia.
Moogy has several solo albums with songs that went on to be recorded by people like Johnny Winter, Eric Clapton, Barry Manilow, Bette Midler, Todd Rundgren and others. He wrote the song "Dust in the Wind" (not to be confused with the hit song of the same name by Kansas), which Todd Rundgren recorded on his Something/Anything? album and Guns N' Roses do live in concert (on their very occasional gigs). Moogy co-wrote a song with Buzzy Linhart called, You Gotta Have Friends, which is Bette Midler's theme song.
Moogy has played, recorded and/or had his songs covered by many rock legends, including Jimi Hendrix, Chuck Berry, Luther Van Dross, Bob Dylan, Bo Diddley, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Allan Woody and Warren Haynes from the Allman Brothers & Gov't Mule. Moogy has worked with great female rockers like Carly Simon, Cindy Lauper, Shawn Colvin, Irene Cara, and Thelma Houston.
Moogy also played in the "Moogy/Woody Band" with Allmans Brothers alumni Allan Woody, and Warren Haynes.
