Moby Grape '69 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Moby Grape '69
''Moby Grape '69'' is the third album by the psychedelic rock band Moby Grape. It is the first album after the departure of co-founder Skip Spence. Spence nonetheless is heard on one song, "Seeing", presumably from the ''Wow/Grape Jam'' sessions, and positioned as the final song on ''Moby Grape '69''. As Peter Lewis describes the album, "We made ''Moby Grape '69'', in an attempt to rebound from the ''Wow'' album, which was over-produced. And it's a cool album. Although we could have rehearsed it a little more, we still believed in it. But I think we were waiting for Skippy to come back, and he never did."〔(Interview with Peter Lewis ) by Jud Cost, 1995. www.sundazed.com〕 The album peaked at a disappointing number 113 on the Billboard chart.〔For further details, see UAO (pseudonym),(Wow: The Moby Grape Story ) March 30, 2005〕 While it did not sell well at the time of its release, in a recent (2008) review, it is pointed out that the album would be particularly appreciated by persons who like the music of Poco and The Eagles. For Moby Grape fans at the time, the album was perhaps too country in musical orientation.〔(Review of ''Moby Grape '69'' ) "An Overdose of Fingal Cocoa" music blog, April 21, 2008.〕 In some respects, the album was ahead of its time, predating the more popular first country rock releases by Poco and The Eagles.〔Poco's first album, ''Pickin' Up the Pieces'', was released in May 1969, while the Eagles' self-titled first album was released in June 1972. ''Moby Grape '69'' was also being recorded during similar periods when The Byrds were recording the landmark ''Sweetheart of the Rodeo'' album (recorded March to May 1968). The Byrds' album was completed earlier and as a consequence released six months prior to ''Moby Grape '69''. ''Sweetheart of the Rodeo'', now regarded as a groundbreaking masterpiece, was initially met with similarly mixed public reactions to that associated with ''Moby Grape '69''. ''Sweetheart of the Rodeo's'' highest U.S. charting was number 77, and it failed to chart at all in the United Kingdom; see Sweetheart of the Rodeo.〕 == Track listing ==
