The Seeds - Pushin' To Hard
Another of those bands I'd never seen in the flesh until recently, The Seeds have that good time garage sound I love, tinged with psychedelia and punky spirit. Their eponymous first album from 1966 is well worth picking up if you see it, featuring short spiky tunes that still thrill to this day. They're probably best known for the anthemic Pushin' To Hard, from said same first album.
Today's video sees them miming merrily to Pushin' To Hard on some unknown (by me at least) American entertainment show. The look on the old fella's face as he watches the prancing band members is worth the time of a download alone! As the hip teen at the start says, we think it's gassy!

Sure looks to me like the show is "The Mothers-in-Law." Isn't that Eve Arden?
Thanks, I'm UK side so I couldn't tell you. :)
21st-century 8th-generation "punk rock" wannabes{Good Charlotte, anyone?} would do well to take a lesson by being forced to watch those Damned and Stooges vid clips! The "punks" now would probbly be all, "but their musicianship sucks, neither guitarist sounds exactly like Carlos Santana, and neither band even reminds me of Journey at all, so they suck". Then they'd start crying.
Hehe - Too true. There's a great line from an Iggy Pop song from the American Cesar LP that goes something like - 'Most rockstars today don't even know how to puke...'
Whoops. I just realized that there are separate comment pages for EACH VID; I wasn't paying attention to what I wuz doing. I'm a dumb okie from texas, whaddyuh expect?
Thanx for the reply, dio bach, and I couldn't have sed it better!
