	The Seeds - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sky Saxon joined the Yahowa religious sect, inspired by their divine leader Father Yod, released several albums as the Yahowa 13 in the mid-70s.
		In the 1980s, Saxon collaborated with several bands—including Redd Kross and The Chesterfield Kings—before reforming the original Seeds in 1989 to headline "The Summer of Love Tour", along with Big Brother and the Holding Company, Arthur Lee and Love, The Music Machine and The Strawberry Alarm Clock.
		Saxon now remains the only original member of The Seeds, currently augmented by the aforementioned Collins as well as organist Ryan Maynes, guitarist Nate Greely, and drummer Justin Smith.

	The Seeds (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Sky Saxon (vocals) and guitarist Jan Savage formed the Seeds with keyboardist Daryl Hooper and drummer Rick Andridge in Los Angles in 1965.
		During the early '70s, Saxon re-emerged as 'Sky Sunlight', fronting several combinations known variously as 'Stars New Seeds' or the 'Universal Stars Band', before retreating from society and moving to Hawaii.
		Saxon reunited the original Seeds for a short tour in 1989 and in the late 90's, made still another resurgence, having become a cult icon to the international psychedelic crowd.

	Las Vegas Mercury: Sky high
		Saxon would no doubt say these things himself, but he's off in London, shacking up with the owners of a vintage clothing store.
		Saxon subsequently moved to Hawaii and joined a cult, where he assumed the name "Sunlight." According to Collins, he also took on three wives and had "16 or 17 kids"--some of whom still appear at shows and introduce themselves to their dad.
		Saxon only re-formed the Seeds two years ago--partially because he was broke and partially because Collins nagged him until he relented.

		I saw Saxon milling about prior to the show and had assumed he was a hardcore fan of The Seeds from back in the old days.
		Backing up Saxon as The Seeds were several young folk, including a super foxy backup singer who played tamborine as if she were a member of The Archies.
		Sky Saxon and The Seeds were surprisingly good and the music was authentic to their late ‘60s/early ‘70s heyday.

	Freeway Jam
		Sky Saxon was born Richard Marsh in Salt Lake City, Utah in 1945.
		Saxon and Hooper regrouped for another stab at immortality, this time in the unlikely role as bluesmen.
		Saxon had become involved with a sect called "Ya Ho Wha", formed in 1969 in the Los Angeles area by one of the most eccentric freaks of the time, a middle-aged beatnik called Jim Baker who believed himself a god and went by the nickname of Father Yod.

	The Lama Workshop
		Sky's obscure 1976 LP "Lovers Cosmic Voyage" is one of several one-off projects he had going in the late 1970s.
		Sky would continue to refer to "Father" and "Yahowa" in both song lyrics and interviews, although people were slow to understand how important this era was (and still is) to him.
		Sky Saxon was not a member of this band, and while they cover three tunes ("Starry Ride", "Drums Stars and Guitars" and a retitled "I'm In Love With Life") co-written by him Sky's name does not appear anywhere in the credits.

	at the Ponderosa Stomp
		Saxon's lyric's were infected by a wondrous charm, while the blend of British and blues influences served notice that The Seeds were developing a sound quite distinct from that of their "Louie Louie" based rivals.
		They were the creation of charismatic vocalist Sky Saxon who, along with guitarist Jan Savage, recruited Daryl Hooper on keyboards and Rick Andridge on drums to unleash The Seeds onto the world.
		Saxon's compositions contained a strong element of acid-tinged horticultural playful whimsy as in "Travel with Your Mind" and "March of the Flower Children", while the band, like the Beatles, were innovators with Eastern-style instrumentation.

		Sky was exhausted after the show, but his fans were going into his dressing room one at a time.
		Re-united with Sky again at the Coachhouse, Sunday night, November 2nd 2003 and as usual, Sky, as well as the other members of the Seeds, were gracious hosts.
		Sky, God-bless you for taking time after the show to talk to your fans, some of whom drove hundreds of miles to catch the show.

		On top we had Sky Saxon raving around the stage in slowmotion like a stoned lunatic, mumbling the lyrics and quite possibly being trapped in his own world.
		Sky is a good example of why you should take it easy with LSD.....another example is the interview with him you will find somewhere else in this issue.
		I missed a bit of the psychotic edge of his voice from the records......but hell, the whole deal worked and the show left me in a good mood.....possibly a little high....but that was not only due to the show I must admit.

		Sky Saxon is the only original member and still keeps in touch with the other original guys Daryll Hooper, Jan Savage, and Rick Andridge.
		I suggested to Sky that we do the Seeds, at first he was reluctant but after some baiting he agreed.
		Sky is back and a new chapter to his legacy is born, we are very lucky to have him here with us he's a one of a kind character and rock legend, there is absolutly, positively no one like him on the face of this earth.

		Farmer” (from the Grammy award winning Almost Famous soundtrack) as they are for Saxon’s cult persona and idiosyncratic lifestyle, which include a belief in the sacred nature of dogs, a nomadic and hedonistic approach to life, as well as a charmingly iconoclastic world view.
		Sky Saxon continued his eccentric legacy through joining the Yahowa religious sect, who released an interesting string of albums as the Yahowa 13 in the mid-70’s, inspired by their divine leader Father Yod.
		Saxon now remains the only original member of The Seeds, being currently augmented by the aforementioned Collins as well as organist Ryan Maynes (Weezer, Ben Vaughn Desert Classic and Sub-Pop artist Arlo), guitarist Nate Greely (Yes Dear and Sub Pop artist Arlo), and drummer Justin Smith (Northern Lights CA, Raul).

	TrouserPress.com :: Sky Saxon
		If Henry Rollins incarnates all the smoldering hatred and intensity of familyman Charlie Manson, then Sky Saxon — the legendary leader of LA's protopunk Seeds —; is a self-made construct of all the qualities Rollins discarded: drug-addled, hippie mystical, stuck in the '60s, inconsistent and unfocused.
		The above discography is a necessarily abbreviated listing of Saxon's activities and does not include most of the countless (and endless) cult chants from his days as a late-'70s Hawaiian guru (pressed in editions of as few as two, some on 8-track tape only) or cult-refugee material (the Alright Family Band).
		Fade in the '80s, with Sky now on Psycho, the foremost British acid-casualty label, sandwiched between Deviants reissues and Crystalized Movements freakouts.

	Sky Saxon : A Full Spoon of Seedy Blues - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		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.
		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.

		Sky's trademark nasal whine has lost a bit of its edge but he still moved around the stage with the energy of a much younger man (amazing how acid can preserve a body).
		Saxon's backing band of next-generation Seeds proved loose, relaxed, and much better than competent, summoning forth that classic, dense "web of sound" that made the Seeds the best of the Nuggets-era garage rockers: big, tumbling, primitive rhythms embroidered with wonky, warbling organ riffs and wannabe Stones blues guitar riffs.
		All were utterly captivated by both the energy and the spectacle of the Seeds, whose performance admirably demonstrated why the music of the '60s continues to hold us in such thrall, more than three decades later.

		As they were working on the tune, the song sounded so much like the Seeds that they decided to call Sky Saxon and ask if he would help write the lyrics.
		Sky co-wrote the lyrics with the boys and the song definitely has that "Seedy Sound".
		Sky Saxon and the Seeds have always been a big influence on the Chesterfield Kings and they said that, "It's our way of paying homage to one of our heroes."

		Krogh, that somehow convinced me to do this interview with Sky Saxon when he visited Loppen at Christiania with a new crew of Seeds, but the fact is that I did it.
		These were the kind of questions running through my mind, as I made my way up the stairs to Loppen, with the final notes of “The Wind Blows Your Hair” still ringing out from the soundcheck.
		I introduced myself to Sky and we chatted a bit while he finished his coffee and a joint of sacred herb.

	The “In” Sound ’66
		Sky Saxon was one of the coolest guys I had ever seen.
		His other favorite was John Sebastian of the Spoonful, so later he took on the stage name of Sky Sebastian.
		He went out to San Francisco and came back and told us all about that whole movement and in later sessions, we incorporated some of that west coast sound in our music.

		All singles were released under the names of "World Peace Band", "Sky Saxon Sunflower Dragon Slayers" with "the Bangles Vicky and Debbie", or with "The Lamed",or by "Hale Sunlight Wings White Magick + Being Poor", or by "the Universal Stars Band"
		But when Sky Sunlight Saxon*, an acolyte since 1969 makes his first appearance midway through, the session takes off.
		Electron's fried Screamin' Jay Hawkins* vocalize on "Fire In The Sky" is particularly evocative of a bad trip.

	Reviews #41-50
		Known as "the meditation album" among Sky's cosmic brotherhood pals it is obviously intended as a backdrop for a spiritual journey undertaken by the listener -- hallucinogenic drugs optional.
		The music is piano (mostly Sky running his fingers up and down the keyboard) and what sounds like a classical harp, played by someone who has been instructed to provide a "harmonious" background.
		On top of this soothing soundscape Sky intones in his inimitable voice whatever cosmic stuff was passing through his head at the moment, and it should be no surprise that this dealt mainly with the holiness of dogs and the universe.

	Splendid Magazine reviews Saxon Shore: Luck Will Not Save Us From A Jackpot Of Nothing
		Saxon Shore develop slow, brooding electro-inflected, P2P-produced lullabies that touch on everything from the soundscapes crafted by Eno and Harold Budd to the sublime ambience of Slowdive's Avalyn and the contemporary sounds of Ulrich Schnauss.
		Things grow darker with "June 23", only to return to the clear-eyed dynamism of closer "November 16", which breaks hearts and grinds them into the ground with a gorgeous electric piano figure and synthetic vibes.
		And while the unpolished drum track is distracting, the organ drone that serves as Saxon Shore's angelic coda is enough to leave you dying for more in advance of the group's Dave Fridmann-produced full-length, The Exquisite Death of Saxon Shore, due this fall.

		Led by the enigmatic Sky Saxon, the Seeds first single "Pushin' Too Hard" cracked the Top 40 in 1967 and they quickly followed it with the release of "Can't Seem to Make You Mine".
		By the seventies the Seeds were gone, but not before releasing three albums of raging psychedelic garage rock and becoming one of the most influential and legendary of the American garage scene.
		Beyond the Seeds' trademark sneering, snarling blues-rock workouts, Saxon also delves into stranger and more psychedelic moods, from the erotically charged epic incantation "Up in Her Room" to the poignant childhood reverie "A Faded Picture" to the inexorable heartache of the oft-covered "Can't Seem To Make You Mine." All hail the king.
