Skip, Hop & Wobble

Jerry Douglas, Russ Barenberg and Edgar Meyer

Album · 1993 · Sugar Hill SH-C 3817

Skip, Hop & Wobble was released by Sugar Hill in 1993 and credits all three players with production and arrangement: Jerry Douglas on resonator guitar, Russ Barenberg on guitar and Edgar Meyer on acoustic bass. All eleven tracks are instrumentals, most of them written by members of the trio. Barenberg wrote “Big Bug Shuffle” and “Here on Earth,” Meyer wrote “Why Don’t You Go Back to the Woods” and “The Years Between,” and Douglas wrote “From Ankara to Izmar.” “The Hymn of Ordinary Motion” is credited to Douglas and Barenberg, while “The Travels of Mr. Hulot,” “Squeezy Pig” and “Monkey Bay” are credited to all three.

Two pieces come from the older repertoire: “Big Sciota,” credited as traditional, and “The Earl of Hyndford,” a traditional tune that appears on the second side in a medley with Meyer’s “Open the Present.”
