TWICE AS MUCH
Twice as Much was the duo of Dave Skinner and Andrew Rose, harmony singers who also wrote
much of their own material. Signed to the Immediate label (run by Rolling Stones manager Andrew Loog Oldham),
the pair recorded several singles and a couple of albums between 1966 and 1968.
Skinner resurfaced in the seventies on keyboards for Uncle Dog, a pub rock group,
and joined the reformed Roxy Music in 1979

Twice As Much's debut album was an odd exercise in twee pop-Baroque production, very typical
of producer Andrew Oldham's ornate, sometimes over-the-top grandiosity. The LP was evenly divided
between group originals and covers of hits by the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and the Small Faces.
There was also the Spector-Goffin-King composition "Is This What I Get for Loving You Baby?"
and "I Have a Love," both of which, coincidentally or not, were done in the mid-'60s by another
one-time Oldham client, Marianne Faithfull. The originals, interestingly, were better....(AllMusic)
