Artist Robert Crumb turned down an offer to create an album cover for the Rolling Stones because he hated their music. However, he did lend his talents to many album projects. Crumb’s comic artwork has elicited sharply divided commentary from his readers and critics and he has been hailed as one of the century’s greatest artists.
