"Of course Bob Moog was a brilliant engineer and circuitry expert, but he was also among the most modest and unpretentious people we've met. We're thrilled that through the efforts of his daughter, Michelle Moog-Koussa, her dad is receiving the recognition he deserves. He was also an Advisory Board member of The Raymond Scott Archives, and was always a great supporter of RS, and of all our efforts. Here are Moog's memories of his old friend and colleague"Don't miss this one. It's a really nice look back on some of the history and influences of Bob Moog directly from the man himself. Bob Moog on seeing Raymond Scott's workplace for the first time: "So there my father and I were with our mouths hanging open! It looked like heaven to me. My father was an electrical engineer who worked for Consolidated Edison, and I was a twenty year-old electronics nerd who found himself on the track to becoming an engineer... Raymond then brought us into the big room downstairs where he had music synthesis equipment."
