Beschreibung
The Moog synthesizer "bent the course of music forever," Rolling Stone declared. Bob Moog walked into history in 1964 when his homemade contraption unexpectedly became a sensation that heavily influenced the sounds of the 1960's and 1970's. In Switched On, Albert Glinsky draws on his exclusive access to Bob Moog's personal archives and his probing interviews with Bob's family and a multitude of associates, for this first complete biography of the man and his work.
