BOB MOSLEY

Wine & Roses

Original Mini-LP released on Niteshift Records in 1986. Includes postcard size insert.

Born and raised in California, Bob Mosley played in various bands before joining Moby Grape in 1966. He was one of the founding members, alongside Skip Spence, Jerry Miller, Peter Lewis and Don Stevenson, and the band became known as the one of the best groups of San Francisco's psychedelic rock scene. He played bass, and also wrote songs and sang, his voice standing out from those of his other bandmates for its power and soulfulness. He was responsible for many of the band's greatest songs, including "Mr Blues", "Come In The Morning", "Lazy Me", "Bitter Wind" and "It's A Beautiful Day Today".

He famously left the band in 1969 to join the Marines, but wasn't gone for long. During basic training he was diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic and was discharged after only nine months. He returned in time for Moby Grape's fifth album, 1971's 20 Granite Creek, which was officially a reunion of all the original members (Skip Spence also returning from his own troubles), and his hard-rocking "Gypsy Wedding" was the opening number and one of the most memorable songs on the album. After this the band split up.

His self-titled solo debut came out in 1972. It's a great record, with aguitar-driven rock sound with flavours of blues, soul and country. Some of the tracks feature The Memphis Horns, and it also features a new soul-styled version of "Gypsy Wedding". It could have been the start of a great solo career, but unfortunately Mosley's recording output has been sporadic and plagued with problems since (including a period of homelessness).

He has contributed to various Moby Grape reunions over the years, and was also a member of The Ducks in 1977, who briefly performed to great acclaim but never recorded. However he wouldn't release more solo material until 1986, with the acoustic 'Wine & Roses'.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT COMBINED SHIPPING ON ALL 12" VINYL / LPS / 12" EPS / 12" SINGLES - PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY!!!!

We offer combined shipping on all LPs / 12" Vinyls: our shipping rates are listed above. HOWEVER shipping packages that weigh more than 2kg is VERY expensive. Therefore we can only offer combined shipping up to a maximum of SEVEN (7) LPs / 12" vinyls. Any extra purchases will be invoiced, packaged and shipped separately.

***Due to the physical logistics of how I can package orders, I will not combine box sets with other items, I will only package them individually***

---------------------------------------------------

COMBINED POSTAGE FOR DIFFERENT FORMATS will be invoiced at my discretion:

While I am happy to combine (for example) one or two 7” singles into one package with 12” records, sometimes it simply isn’t practical (like if you want me to combine one 12” record with three or more 7” records). I simply do not think that these combinations can be packaged together safely and securely. Therefore these will be invoiced separately as two packages.

IF YOU ARE UNSURE, please contact me before bidding!

---------------------------------------------------

Sorry but I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks of auctions (see below).

---------------------------------------------------

PAYMENT

I would appreciate payment within seven days of the auction’s end. If you want to bid on more of my auctions ending a week later please inform me. I will wait and issue a combined invoice at the close of the second week’s auctions.

However, I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks and in these cases would appreciate payment promptly after the close of the second week’s auctions.

I am sorry to have to introduce these measures – I always try to be patient and allow buyers to bid on extra auctions and / or delay payment. Unfortunately some buyers have been stretching out transactions to unacceptable lengths so I feel I have no option but to limit ‘carried over’ transactions to two weeks.
