Andoaragain

In December 1968 at Columbia Studios in Nashville, this ex-singer/songwriter/guitarist from Moby Grape set about recording his first LP as a Columbia Recording artist: Oar. Sadly, though Skip lived until 1999, it would also be his last. An acid-laced, melancholy journey through country, blues and gospel, Oar is as cult classic as they comeand its now been expanded like never before. The original album is here along with the 1999 bonus cuts and nearly two hours of period recordings, all packed in a hardcover book-style jacket full of David Fricke notes and rare photos. The ultra-rarities (including a host of alternate versions and other oddities) join Little Hands, Cripple Creek, Diana, War in Peace, Broken Heart, All Come to Meet Her, Lawrence of Euphoria and the more strange, surreal and fascinating documents of a deeply troubled artist who descended into even greater darkness after these recordings.
