Oar (album)

''Oar'' is a 1969 solo album by Moby Grape co-founder Skip Spence. It is Spence's only solo album, recorded over seven days in Nashville, on which Spence plays all of the instruments.
==History==
Described as "one of the most harrowing documents of pain and confusion ever made",〔Rob Brunner, (Review of ''More Oar: A Tribute To The Skip Spence Album'' ), Entertainment Weekly, July 23, 1999; www.ew.com.〕 the album was recorded after Spence had spent six months in Bellevue Hospital. Spence had been committed to Bellevue following a delusion-driven attempt to attack Moby Grape bandmates Don Stevenson and Jerry Miller with a fire axe.〔〔At the time, Moby Grape was in New York City recording its second album, Wow/Grape Jam, under the supervision of producer David Rubinson. It was Rubinson who called the police, in order to address Spence's threatening behaviors, while Miller and Stevenson swore criminal complaints, in order to facilitate Spence's arrest.〕
At the time of Spence's release from hospital, he had written a number of songs that he wanted to record. Producer David Rubinson suggested that Spence record at the Columbia studios in Nashville, where there was a particularly patient recording engineer, Mike Figlio. Rubinson instructed Figlio to keep the tapes running at all times, to record everything that Spence did. The majority of the tracks were recorded using a three-track recorder. Rubinson chose to stay away from the studio, concerned that Spence's recording activities would be distracted by the presence of a producer.〔
According to Spence, the Nashville sessions were intended by him to only be a demo, which he gave to Rubinson with the intent that the songs would be fleshed out with full production for the actual album. Instead Rubinson had the demo recordings released by Columbia.
When first released, ''Oar'' was not promoted by Columbia Records, despite pleadings from Rubinson. It was at the time the lowest-selling album in Columbia Records history, and was deleted from the Columbia catalogue within a year of its release.〔

Subsequent reissues have added ten more songs, in different stages of completion, to the original dozen. The original release ended with a fade out of "Grey / Afro". The 1999 Sony/Sundazed reissue appends "This Time He Has Come" to a fade-less "Grey / Afro", which reflects how the two songs appeared on the master tapes.
The first CD reissue of ''Oar'' was released by Sony Special Products in 1991 and was totally remixed from the multitrack masters. This was the first release of the fadeless "Grey / Afro" along with 4 outtakes from the sessions. This CD edition is no longer in print and is highly sought after by fans. The newer Sundazed reissue uses the original 1968 mix master tapes for the first time and added a further 6 unreleased tracks.
In 1999, the Birdman label of Burbank, California released a tribute album titled ''More Oar: A Tribute To The Skip Spence Album''. It featured covers of the original record's tracks by Robert Plant, Robyn Hitchcock, Tom Waits, Greg Dulli, Mark Lanegan, Beck, Diesel Park West, Mudhoney, and others.
In November 2009, as part of his "Record Club" series, Beck began posting the videos of his complete version of ''Oar'' on his website (www.beck.com), recorded with members of Wilco, Feist, Jamie Lidell, James Gadson, Brian LeBarton, and others the previous June.〔See, and hear, for example, (Beck's Record Club versions ) of "Books of Moses", "All Come To Meet Her", "Broken Heart" and "War In Peace"; www.beck.com.〕
In 2013, the album was listed at number 8 on Ballast's list of top 50 Canadian albums of all time.〔Unger, Andrew ("The 50 Greatest Canadian Albums of All Time" ), "Ballast", Feb 13, 2013 accessed Feb 14, 2013.〕
