Spence, Alexander - Oar

NEW VINYL LP ON MUSIC ON VINYL 2011

180 GRAM VINYL.

The late Alexander Spence, also known as Skip Spence, was in two of the best American West Coast bands of the '60s, Moby Grape and Jefferson Airplane. The album is a wonderfully quirky journey that only a product of the American '60s could have produced.Spence played all the instruments on this album and drew freely from the root genres that made up the foundations of mid-'60s rock--blues, folk, gospel, ethnic--in order to weave a tapestry that sounds like Lightnin' Hopkins crossed with Pink Floyd's Syd Barrett.
