ru.wikipedia.org
The Seeds - рок-группа основанная в 1965 году в городе Лос Анжелес (штат Калифорния). Первый состав The Seeds сформировали поющий бас-гитарист Скай Сэксон, гитарист Иэн Сэвидж, клавишник Дэрил Хупер и барабанщик Рик Эндридж. Группа, поначалу находившаяся под заметным влиянием Rolling Stones, играла сырой гаражный рок, позже обогатившийся элементами жёсткой психоделии, арт-рока и битловскими мотивами.
The Seeds стали известны благодаря хиту Pushin' Too Hard (1967), за которым последовал также вошедший в чарты (но имевший меньший успех) Can't Seem to Make You Mine. В 1970 году Сэксон распустил состав, но группа реформировалась в 1989 году (проведя гастроли с Big Brother and the Holding Company и Love) и затем в 2003 году. 25 июня 2009 года Скай Сэксон скончался в Остине, штат Техас.
peoples.ru / en.wikipedia.org (перевод)
Типичные представители гаражного рока «The Seeds» исполняли свой грубый, примитивный, драйвовый прото-панк задолго до появления «Ramones». Основал эту лос-анджелесскую команду в 1965 году вокалист Скай Саксон (Ричард Марш), уже успевший к тому времени выпустить несколько синглов с различными проектами.По объявлению в прессе Скай подобрал себе следующих соратников: Ян Сэвэдж (гитара), Дэрил Хупер (клавишные), Рик Эндридж (ударные). Заключив контракт с фирмой Джина Нормана «Crescendo Records», квартет дебютировал с синглом «Can’t seem to make you mine». Этот медляк имел локальный южнокалифорнийский успех, но дал «The Seeds» возможность быть приглашенными на разные шоу типа «American Bandstand» и «Shebang». В начале 1966-го вышел второй и самый знаменитый сингл группы, «Pushin’ Too Hard». Простой грубый рифф вкупе с харизматичным ревом Саксона пришелся по вкусу американской публике, и песня заняла 36-ю строчку в национальных чартах. Следом за сорокапяткой появился и полнометражный альбом «The Seeds» , содержавший помимо «Pushin’ Too Hard» такие изюминки гаражного рока как «No Escape», «Nobody Spoil My Fun» и «Girl I Want You». В октябре 1966-го вышел второй лонгплей, «A web of sound». Самой популярной вещицей на этом диске стал синеворотничковый гимн «Mr. Farmer», прозвучавший в фильме Камерона Кроу «Almost Famous». Из других композиций выделялись хриплая «Rollin’ Machine» и 14-минутная «Up In Her Room». Между тем в США нарастала популярность движения хиппи, и его магия не прошла и мимо «Seeds». Подпав под «власть цветов», в 1967 году музыканты сменили свои ориентиры и ударились в психоделику. Новые веяния нашли отражение на альбоме «Future», сделанным под явным влиянием битловского «Сержанта Пеппера». Несмотря на то, что явных хитов (за исключением может быть «A Thousand Shadows») на диске не было, популярность группы не угасала. В то время «Seeds» на равных правах делили площадки с такими артистами как Джими Хендрикс, «Byrds», «Vanilla Fudge», «Doors», «Buffalo Springfield», «Jefferson Airplane», «Kinks» и рядом других не менее известных. К концу 1967-го музыканты решили немного поэкспериментировать с блюзом, записав альбом «A Spoonful Of Seedy Blues». Правда, им не хотелось совсем отпугивать старых поклонников, поэтому пластинка вышла под флагом «Sky Saxon Blues Band». Свой вклад в создание альбома внес блюзовый гигант Мадди Уотерс, однажды назвавший «Seeds» американским ответом «Rolling Stones». В 1968 году вышел концертник «Raw And Alive At Merlin’s Music Box», ставший последним релизом оригинального состава. В 1970-м группа распалась, а Саксон подался в религию, став членом мистической нью эйджевой секты The Source Family под руководством гуру Отца Йода. Совместно с другими музыкантами, участниками секты, Саксон участвовал в записи нескольких альбомов импровизационной психоделической музыки выходившей под названиями Ya Ho Wa 13. Прошло около двадцати лет, перед тем как состоялся кратковременный реюнион оригинальной команды. Поводом для этого послужил «The Summer Of Love Tour», где также выступали «Love», «Big Brother and the Holding Company» и некоторые другие шестидесятники. Последующее пришествие «The Seeds» произошло в начале третьего тысячелетия, когда Скай, с совершенно новым составом возобновил гастрольную деятельность. 24 июня 2009 года Скай Саксон умер после тяжелой болезни.
Allmusic / Biography by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Best known for their rock & roll standard "Pushin' Too Hard," the Seeds combined the raw, Stonesy appeal of garage rock with a fondness for ragged, trashy psychedelia. And though they never quite matched the commercial peak of their first two singles, "Pushin' Too Hard" and "Can't Seem to Make You Mine," the band continued to record for the remainder of the '60s, eventually delving deep into post-Sgt. Pepper's psychedelia and art rock. None of their new musical directions resulted in another hit single, and the group disbanded at the turn of the decade. Sky Saxon (born Richard Marsh; vocals) and guitarist Jan Savage formed the Seeds with keyboardist Daryl Hooper and drummer Rick Andridge in Los Angles in 1965. By the end of 1966, they had secured a contract with GNP Crescendo, releasing "Pushin' Too Hard" as their first single. The song climbed into the Top 40 early in 1967, and the group immediately released two sound-alike singles, "Mr. Farmer" and "Can't Seem to Make You Mine," in an attempt to replicate their success; the latter came the closest to being a hit, just missing the Top 40. While their singles were garage punk, the Seeds attempted to branch out into improvisational blues-rock and psychedelia on their first two albums, The Seeds (1966) and Web of Sound (1966). With their third album, Future (1967), the band attempted a psychedelic concept album in the vein of Sgt. Pepper's. While the record reached the Top 100 and spawned the minor hit "A Thousand Shadows," it didn't become a hit. Two other albums - Raw & Alive: The Seeds in Concert at Merlin's Music Box (1968) and A Full Spoon of Seedy Blues (1969), which was credited to the Sky Saxon Blues Band - were released at the end of the decade, but both were ignored. The Seeds broke up shortly afterward. During the early '70s, Saxon led a number of bands before retreating from society and moving to Hawaii. Savage became a member of the Los Angeles Police Department. A collection of rarities and alternate takes, Fallin' off the Edge, was released in 1977.

1966 The Seeds / The Seeds
Original Release: US GNP Crescendo GNP-2023
en.wikipedia.org
The Seeds is the debut album by American garage rock group The Seeds. Produced by Marcus Tybalt and Sky Saxon, it was originally released by GNP Crescendo Records in April 1966. After the release of two singles for "Can't Seem to Make You Mine" and "You're Pushing Too Hard" in 1965, the group's debut album was released and charted in the United States where it peaked at 132 on the Billboard Top LPs & Tapes chart. Modern reception of the album is positive, with critics noting the album influence on punk rock a decade later. Like many garage rock bands, Lead singer Sky Saxon's vocal style was influenced by the vocals of Rolling Stones front man Mick Jagger, but have also received comparisons to the vocals of rockabilly acts such as Buddy Holly and Eddie Cochran. Modern reception of the album has been generally positive. Peter Kurtz of the online database Allmusic gave the album a positive rating of four stars out of five, praising the songs "Pushin' Too Hard" and "Can't Seem to Make You Mine" but noted that the record is "comprised of snotty boy-girl songs and teeters on the edge of musical ineptness" and the "rest of the record, though fairly forgettable, still reinforces the truth that pure punk appeared long before the Sex Pistols." In a review for the double disc re-issue of The Seeds and A Web of Sound, the British music magazine Uncut gave the album a positive rating of four and half stars out of five, describing the album as "...A brilliantly simple, headlong surge of fuzz-drenched guitar, bubbling organ riffs and Saxon's raw, throat-tearing vocals..." Stewart Mason of Allmusic praised The Seeds album in a review of the double album, stating that the album "is probably the best album by any of the original American garage bands, without the usual time-filling cover versions and elongated jams, and of course it features the immortal "Pushin' Too Hard" and the even better "Can't Seem to Make You Mine".

1966 A Web Of Sound / The Seeds
Original Release: US GNP Crescendo GNP-2033
Allmusic / Review by Joe Viglione
Web of Sound by the Seeds should be a garage rock classic. Everything about this record is superb '60s underground rock, from the cover concept (by band leader Sky Saxon) of the four musicians trapped in a spider's web to the back cover black and whites, and the bizzaro liner notes by producer Marcus Tybalt, who also penned a couple of tunes here. Unlike other albums by the Seeds, nothing on here sounds like their hit "Pushin' Too Hard," and that is a plus; not because that inverted Kinks riff isn't great -- it is, but Saxon had a penchant for trying to recapture that original butterfly. The six songs on side one are fun punk rock that helped inspire the new wave of the late '70s. But it is side two, with its four-minute "Just Let Go" and the fuzz pop of Saxon's "Up in Her Room," that cuts across '60s boundaries. Where "In a Gadda Da Vida" needed more melody and lyrics and Rare Earth's long version of "Get Ready" has too much drum solo, the Seeds take Van Morrison's then-censored Them hit, "Gloria," and kind of explain what happens once Saxon gets her up there, "making love in her room." The keyboards and Rolling Stones-wannabe blues guitar build a nice foundation for the fuzztone that follows Saxon as he keeps repeating the title of the song. He seems to be parodying the Beau Brummels, the Shadows of Night, and Them, all who preceded the Seeds by a year or two. The funny thing is, although the riff to "Pushin' Too Hard" is missing from this album, the melody to "Up In Her Room" is "Pushin' Too Hard." "Up in Her Room" has a fabulous '60s organ like ? & the Mysterians, and exactly like the fuzz organ in the middle of the Velvet Underground's similar epic, "Sister Ray," even ending with the same vamp as "White Light/White Heat," the title track of the album where "Sister Ray" made her debut. Saxon was clearly aware of what other people were doing at the time and A Web of Sound stands as a superior garage rock effort. It is just too bad tunes like "The Farmer," "Just Let Go," and "Tripmaker" didn't have the Top 40 charm of, say, Paul Revere & the Raiders' "Just Like Me" or "Kicks." The inclusion of a hit on that scale would have opened up many minds to the lunacy of the Seeds' "Pictures and Designs," with Saxon's growl that Iggy Pop copped so wonderfully. By drawing from the elements that made Moulty & the Barbarians, the Leaves, and Them so charming, A Web of Sound gave direction to the Stooges, Alice Cooper, and other acts who took it all a few steps further. Saxon does it all with great flair here, aided and abetted by organ and guitar sounds in "I Tell Myself" that imitators have not been able to accurately duplicate.

Allmusic / Review by Joe Viglione
With liner notes by Muddy Waters, a cover of Water's tune "Plain Spoken," and two titles written by Luther "Guitar Jr." Johnson, the trend-conscious Sky Saxon takes his Seeds into a world far removed from punk and garage rock. This may be the only album that doesn't contain a variation of the "Pushin' Too Hard" riff, and that might not be a good thing. Six minutes and four seconds of Sky Saxon's "Cry Wolf" is too long for blues this lightweight. Saxon plays a cool harp, but his Sam the Sham-style vocals are not going to cause Buddy Guy any sleepless nights, nor would George Guy find them amusing. This is one of the great garage rock bands of all time fooling around, and that GNP Crescendo gave them so much latitude is absolutely amazing. Muddy Waters' "Plain Spoken" gets a reverent treatment, and perhaps that's all one could ask. There was a search on for Howard Tate and when he was rediscovered the reviews for his latter-day work were outstanding. This album won't have DJs and blues enthusiasts seeking out the Seeds to do a national House of Blues tour, but the funny thing is, decades after this was recorded, they might actually have earned the right to attempt working in such sacred territory. "The Gardener," at four minutes and 57 seconds, sounds as long as "Cry Wolf." Saxon gives us some cool keyboards and wailing mouth harp, but his vocals really are more suited to a Seeds/Standells/Strawberry Alarm Clock class reunion, and halfway through the track you'll have had enough. Having the intuition to cover two Luther Johnson songs, "Pretty Girl" and the up-tempo "One More Time Blues," is commendable. Luther "Guitar Jr." Johnson performed with Muddy Waters and Otis Spann, and the inclusion of his material adds a legitimacy. "Creepin' About" is amusing, but would have been more so had Sky Saxon actually got Luther Johnson or Muddy Waters or Etta James to guest star on his material. They look like the Seeds on the cover, and it is just too bad they didn't borrow a few ideas from Big Brother & the Holding Company and put some psychedelia into the grooves. Marcus Tybalt totally missed the mark in producing this, but it does have some merit for reasons already mentioned.

1967 Future / The Seeds
Original Release: US GNP Crescendo GNP-2038
Allmusic / Review by Joe Viglione
The "A Thousand Shadows" 45 rpm from this album, Future, came in a pink sleeve decorated by gray four-leaf clovers and a negative picture of the Seeds next to a sign that says "Wishing Well - Help Us Grow." "A Thousand Shadows" is the melody as well as the feel of their Top 40 1967 hit "Pushin' Too Hard." Breaking no new ground, the band insisted on revisiting its formula, reinventing new versions of "Pushin' Too Hard" like "Flower Lady & Her Assistant." This is a sophisticated package with a gatefold which includes lyrics over pastel sunflowers as if the band was Joni Mitchell. Three colorful pages come inside the album, including two beautiful photos of the group along with single flowers representing the songs on the disc with instructions: "Cut out paste on whatever" for grade schoolers or those so strung out on LSD they have regressed to that point. "Six Dreams" is Black Sabbath's Ozzie meeting George Harrison in some biker film soundtrack with weird sound effects and a sitar. The harp on "Fallin'" underscores Saxon's passionate garage vocal. Imagine, if you will, Brian Jones during the recording of Satanic Majesties deciding to bare all the excesses of rock stardom. This album is a trip, not because it reflects the ideas captured in the Peter Fonda film of the same name, but because a band had the audacity to experiment with record company money and make something so noncommercial and playful. Droning organ sounds penetrate "Fallin'," the seven minute, 40 second final track. Saxon writes in the inner-sleeve essay "Originations of the Flower Generation" "...The farmer lives by the elements alone, the sun, the rain, and the earth, but the earth needs its seeds to sow the flower generation of the leaf...." It's heady stuff, and the melody and sound of "Pushin' Too Hard" permeates incessantly. Hardly a Future, as the title proclaims, this is actually the Sgt. Pepper of the flower-power set, a reinvention of past efforts, but no "Strawberry Fields" or "Day in the Life" to bring it out of its cult niche. Very listenable, highly entertaining, and totally not for the mass audience. GNP stands for Gene Norman Presents, and the label should be commended for allowing such creativity which inspired Iggy Pop and the Lyres' Mono Mann. Saxon played his game to the hilt, and that followers like Mono Mann and Jeff Connelly would get stuck in his groove is only testament to how original and enthralling these sounds are. Tunes like "Now a Man" are low-key Ventures riffs with naïve guitar and Saxon being as indulgent as humanly possible. Fans should also seek out a 45 on Expression records, "Beautiful Stars" by Sky Sunlight and Thee New Seeds featuring Rainbow. Despite its musical limitations, Future holds up quite well to repeated plays by sitting firmly in the past.

1968 Raw & Alive In Concert At Merlin's Music Box / The Seeds
Original Release: US GNP Crescendo GNPS-2043
Allmusic / Review by Joe Viglione
The Seeds were an exceptional band that never achieved the success that they inspired. This album has a truly psychedelic cover with too-dark-for-pastel colors, swirling letters over eerie faces, and dynamic black and white photos on the back. If you want to see the image of Iggy Pop clothed, just look at Sky Saxon in the bottom right photo on the back cover with the screaming girl holding a flower grabbing at him. He had the image down, as well as the music. "900 Million People Daily All Making Love" sounds so much like the Doors and Jim Morrison's "When the Music's Over," one has to wonder which came first, or did they copy each other? "Mumble and Bumble" is a trippy "Alabama Song," but where Morrison is looking for the next whiskey bar, Saxon is off looking for flowers and magic mushrooms. The band has great energy which is pierced by annoying canned applause à la the Rolling Stones' Got Live If You Want It. This is a record album, not a situation comedy TV show, after all; what's the point of overdubbing an audience onto what is really good music? Sure, "No Escape" is a prelude to the closer and hit "Pushin' Too Hard" with a tip of the hat to Martha & the Vandellas, while "Can't Seem to Make You Mine" is placed nicely in mid-set, a song after the truncated "Up in Her Room." The revelation that is this "concert" album is what a great band the Seeds really were, and how Sky Saxon's vocals have a gritty edge that he held back on us in many of the studio recordings. "Gypsy Plays His Drums" has a great chug-chug guitar, nice off-key backing vocals, and a driving pulse which is present throughout the performance. If you can ignore the extraneous additions, a song like "Forest Outside Your Door" shows really how creative and influential this pioneering band was, while "Satisfy You" is Saxon's direct sexual rock to Mick Jagger's "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction." Sky claims he can get satisfaction, and can satisfy you at the same time. He then veers off into more familiar psychedelic territory with "Night Time Girl" which combines the sex and the psychedelia. If they taught rock & roll in school, "Raw & Alive" would have to be the textbook for image, design, and content.
