Skid is the debut album by the Irish blues rock band Skid Row, released in 1970. The band, initially formed in 1967, featuring Gary Moore on guitar and vocals, became a key part of Irish rock history. The album blends traditional blues influences with hard rock and a hint of psychedelic rock, resulting in a raw and powerful debut. With its heavy blues influence, Skid features extended guitar solos and emotive vocals, with Moore’s bluesy guitar work taking center stage and showcasing his immense talent early in his career. The album also incorporates hard rock elements, with strong rhythms and powerful riffs adding a heavier edge to the sound. The combination of bluesy improvisation and hard rock energy gives the album a compelling and distinctive vibe for its time. Many of the tracks on Skid are built around improvisation, which was a hallmark of the bands live performances. This sense of spontaneity lends the album a raw, unpolished feel, complete with extended instrumental breaks and solos.

This MOV release of Skid is available as a limited edition of 750 individually numbered copies on white coloured vinyl.
