Description:
Bob Moog invented the Moog synthesizer in 1964 and in so doing revolutionized the face of popular music. His creations subsequently touched thousands of lives as synthesizers gained acceptance in the music world and became the catalyst for new forms of sonic expression. Today, over 50 years later, Moog's instruments continue to be used by musicians of all ages working in genres that span the creative spectrum. Moog himself unwittingly became an icon not only in his industry but also to the larger music and engineering communities for his unique combination of technical brilliance, creative curiosity, and generosity of spirit. In this Tipbook Legends Series entry, the maverick inventor's life is examined though his work and the instruments he created. The book is enhanced by the participation of his daughter and executive director of the Bob Moog Foundation, Michelle Moog-Koussa, who provides a special intimate glimpse into the life of this electronic-music pioneer and icon.
