I obtained the Electronic Perspectives book by Tom Rhea.  I met Tom at the Scottworks Raymond Scott Festival where I demonstrated my version of the Circle Machine. Electronic Perspectives can be purchased at www.electronicperspectives.com

Tom was known internationally as a Moog synthesizer clinician and wrote the Minimoog Owner's Manual along with 16 others for a number of synthesizer companies. Click on the image to view his bio.

This is the promotional sheet for Electronic Perspectives.

Click on the image to view the first few pages of the book including the table of contents. There is a lot of material in this book.

This book is amazing. First, the packaging is first rate. The book comes in a nice boxed cover. The lettering is bright gold more than this photograph shows.

The front cover is equally exquisite.

Inside are 391 pages filled with great photographs and stories of the history of electronic sound and music..

I especially like page 337 since it features my photograph of the Electronium.

The book comes with two CDs. Click on the image to view the track listing.

Having been involved with electronic music and synthesizers for over 50 years, this book is a joy and fills in a lot of details I was missing.
