"Moffeit's predecessors are really Jack Micheline, Ray Bremser , and d. a. levy.

What he is searching for in many of his books and chapbooks is the dark American underbelly, the shadowy place where all creative energy originates. His sense of Lorca's Duende is visible in his poetry and blues performances.

I was with Ed Ward; we were both wondering who this cat was dressed in shiny leather, banging on the bongos like some incantatory, skinny white shadow. He had his voice down and it was a good sound. While the rest of us were learning to emote cool, Tony was blowing, scatting, chanting, rhyming hot. I quickly got the Pentecostal suggestion of his rhythms; this man could sing. He conjured Ray Charles, he conjured Mick Jagger ... but with poetry!" -John Macker, Something Past After (Stubborn Mule Press)
