Bob Moog R.I.P.

I never owned a Moog. My main instruments are of the stringed/analog variety and any keyboards were of the cheap kind. The worlds of guitars and synths have coexisted (mostly) amicably (think ELO...maybe not.) My interest in synthesizer music can all be summed up in the term "cheesy vinyl," those wonderfully bad albums (example) that featured Mr. Moog's instruments. Bob Moog's contribution to music and music technology is monumental. He will be missed.
