Record Store Day 2013, The Seeds, four songs on two 45-rpm records

If you remember the Seeds at all it is for their top 40 hit ‘Pushin’ Too Hard’ in 1965. It is called psychedelic garage rock by Wikipedia–high praise. Turns out they are still around, touring as Daryl Hooper and the Seeds. The more-or-less original Seeds, already embracing nostalgia by going as Sky Saxon and the Seeds, recorded these four songs in 1970. Turned out it was the last new material for the Seeds on a major label. The singles were never distributed. I think they finally saw the light of day 10 years ago so that Seeds fans and rock and roll historians could find out they weren’t very good. Here’s their hits.
