An accomplished musician on banjo, guitar and ukelele and an avid collector of early jazz and blues records, Robert Crumb constantly writes and draws about music of all kinds. Brought together for the first time from all stages of his career these strips range from the silly to the serious. Real people and real problems are the substance of stories like Jelly Roll Morton's Voodoo Curse and Patton while Crumb's celebrated light-hearted zaniness can be seen in Cubist Be-Bop Comics, The Old Songs are The Best Songs and Sunny side up. Crumb is as obssessed with music as he is with sex, and his extraordinary talent shines throughout this collection.
