Thanks Nadorozny,

Mmmm very close but I would never of mistaken this for Mr Saxon. The animal noises though are very Mr Sunlight Saxon.

I'm too lazy to go look for it on youtube:

The FRANTICS "Why", from late '65

 

[Hicksville Hogwash]

Not nasally enough Mike but still a great seedy like song.

 

[MopTopMike]

Disagree 1000%. This is a total Seeds rip.

 

[buckeyebeat]

Sands - Open Your Eyes - this one tops the list for me....and it's a really tough record to find as well (R9+?)

 

[bunter]

Thee Sixpence - Heart Full of Rain, takes the Seedy cake.

Nothing could ever be more like The Seeds than The Sands.
They even have a 5 letter band name, beginning with "S" and ending with "DS". What more do you need?

 

[Hicksville Hogwash]

The Sands is an obvious one and therefore must be the Seeds incognito there has got to be more? The Fire Escape album has the players ever been solved?

Didn't that obscure the Doors band do the same thing with the letter configuration - having the D's and S's reversed and the double vowel thing! Shame about the baritone vocals because they could have been a good Seeds tribute band.

 

[Dave Baldwin]

"Never Ask Again" by The End Result (Chattahoochee) has a Sky-influenced vocal.
Glad this is a nice cheap reissue now so I don't have to be depressed the next time
an original copy goes for three grand.

 

[Hicksville Hogwash]

Thanks Mike,
you are pretty close to thee sky there. Never heard this before.:oops:

 

[Frantic]

There is a killer unreleased Seeds sounding track by the Sands on the upcoming Heuy Meaux set from Big Beat this year.

 

[bosshoss]

Wow!

Double WOW - Most anticipated comp set of the year for me

God it's driving me nuts...there's an album by a band from the Carolinas or Virginia maybe, used to have it, maybe a little later like 68-70, it definitely has some Sky-alike vocals on some songs....anybody?

Finally figured it out...it's this song off the album by the Cykle:

Great Cackalack band!

 

[Perkeo]

Great Cackalack band!

Please to explain Cackalack?

I think this a great, somewhat under rated album, right at the point where seedy garage sounds were getting slightly freaky, like Web of Sound and later...

 

[sircyclops]

Sorry, about that. "Cackalack" is slang for "Carolina" as in North Carolina, where I'm posting from! Certainly no Texas level scene here, but some respectable entries into the garage/psych pantheon came outta the Old North State.
Good description of the LP. Eastern NC was/is a little behind the curve which probably explains the band sounding more '67 than '69.
On the topic of NC, the great recent reissue of The Horde acetate has given me some kicks. No Justice-level romps on this one, these Duke kids were definitely with the times ala their covers of Love and the Blues Project.
