"Deen," not "Alonzo," please!

In my time away from this board, I've read what David Siegel has written about The Witch's Tale.  He is no doubt the world's leading expert on the program.  (I'd love to hear from him!)  In Siegel's introduction to his book on the subject, he writes that Cole preferred to be called "Deen" and that "Alonzo was only used by folks who did not know him" (p. 4)

Theme song for "The Witch's Tale"

I keep reading that the music used in The Witch's Tale is "Orgie and the Spirits" by Leginski.  However, I seem to be able to find nothing regarding either that piece of music or the composer based upon those spellings.  If anyone has any additional information in this regard, I would appreciate hearing from you.
 
By the way, I apologize for my months' long absence.  All I can say is that being employed sometimes gets in the way of fun stuff like this.
