Twice as Much


Twice as Much was a British musical duo, composed of Dave Skinner and Andrew Rose, harmony singers who wrote much of their own material.
Their only UK Top 40 success as performers was a cover of the Mick Jagger / Keith Richards composition "Sittin' on a Fence". The Rolling Stones' version of the song, although recorded in December 1965, was not released on a Stones' album in the US until 1967, and not in the UK until 1969. Twice as Much were managed by Andrew Loog Oldham. Songs that were composed by the duo were recorded by Del Shannon, Chris Farlowe and P. P. Arnold.
In 1972, Skinner joined Uncle Dog, a group including vocalist Carol Grimes. He penned most of the tracks on their album, Old Hat. He was also a member of Clancy. In 1977/8, Skinner toured as the keyboard player with Roxy Music. He also contributed to albums by Phil Manzanera and Bryan Ferry.
Rose died Halstead, Essex on 8 July 2024, at the age of 78.
