Tiger Man

This is from his mid-seventies album "One Man Band Bob Vido" 

Robert Zaprian Tchomoneff Vidoloff, aka Bob Vido, a mysterious outsider artist and musician.

On August 4th, 1995, an 80-year old man died in his tiny, old-style Hollywood bungalow. The same place he'd been living for nearly 50 years. He had no children and he was not married. He left a checking account with a few hundred dollars, a couple small parcels of land in the desert, a rusted 1971 Toyota with 4 flat tires, and a $45 dentist bill (for a restored post and crown). He was born in 1915.
