Mortimer Gouldwater

American Baroque composer from Ohio who was still composing Baroque music about 100 years after it went out of style. Emigrating westward, he settled in Ohio after his shoes wore out.

At least, according to the liner notes of the classical music parody album Baroque Americana by "The Concertgebluff Authaus Orchestra Society." The music was really by Walter Raim (of folk group The Harvesters) and Stan Green, likely released in late 1966. The liner notes were written by professional liner notist Tom Carlson.
