In April and May 1983 Skip Battin toured in Italy. He was accompanied by the Italian guitarist Ricky Mantoan. They both played acoustic guitars and sang. Their performances were well accepted by the audiences. The duo presented most of the songs from Skip Battin's next album as well as a lot of classic songs from the BYRDS, the BURRITOS and even two songs recorded by the BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD. Skip Battin even sang some songs in Italian language
