The Complicated Life of Moby Grape's Skip Spence with Don Stevenson and Cam Cobb

On this episode of Reading Is Funktamental, we speak with musician Don Stevenson and author Cam Cobb about the star-crossed life of Skip Spence, a founding member of Moby Grape who went on to record the legendary solo album, OAR. Stevenson was Spence's bandmate in this acclaimed ensemble from San Francisco's Haight Ashbury, a renowned drummer/songwriter. Cobb is the author of a fantastic new biography, Weighted Down: The Complicated Life of Moby Grape's Skip Spence (Omnibus Press).
