"Bob Crewe: Sight and Sound is the first book to explore both the extraordinary musical life and the remarkable paintings and sculptures of one of America's greatest-ever songwriters. Collected here are more than 80 of Crewe's original artworks, stretching from his first forays into abstract expressionism in the 1950s and 1960s, his more complex, tactile compositions made in the 1990s, and never-before-seen archival images and ephemera that reflect Crewe's simultaneous contribution to the visual arts and popular music. Original essays by Jessica May and Peter Plagens explore the development of an artist whose influences ranged from Rauschenberg and Johns to Warhol and Bacon; legendary record producer Andrew Loog Oldham captures the period of radical experimentalism in which Crewe wrote many of the most memorable songs in the canon of modern pop; and Donald Albrecht's introduction provides further insight into Crewe’s personal and creatives lives, as well as his relationships with icons of the music industry." —ARTDAILY.COM
