“Every song has a memory; Every song has the ability to make
or break your heart, shut down the heart, and open the eyes.”
Andy Warhol
The Story of Moondog, 1957
.
Andy Warhol’s mother often did the lettering for his designs. Her lettering on the cover of a Louis Hardin album, The Story of Moondog, won an award from the American Institute of Graphic Arts as “Andy Warhol’s mother”.
The writing had been rearranged graphically by Warhol for the cover.
