One of the oddest and most affecting personal documents ever put to music. Ex-Jefferson Airplane/Moby Grape member Skip Spence made this totally DIY album in 1968; it was to be his last one before schizophrenia permanently sidelined him. Personally and musically sharing some of the same sad/brilliant territory as Syd Barrett, Oar has perhaps a more singular, intentional artistic direction than Barrett's work did. Spence's condition seemed to give birth to an entire style of Blues - beautifully honest and confessional viewpoints that we're richer for hearing. There are moments of lightness and subtle humour here too, and a fascination with the way Spence's ghostly, minimalist guitar and percussion so effectively embellish his unsettling interior sketches.
