The Seeds
FUTURE
GNP/ Big Beat CDWIK2 312 – 2 CD deluxe set

1967 was a turning point for Sky Saxon, Daryl Hooper,Jan Savage and Rick Andridge, a moment where the hardwork of the previous two years was finally paying off.The first six months likely represented the zenith of
the Seeds’ career, as the ascendant quartet seemedcompletely in the vanguard, with a major nationalhit under their belt, fan pandemonium wherever theywent, and a public profile inflated by a new manager,the voluble “Lord” Tim Hudson. The eponymousdebut album and its sequel, “A Web Of Sound”, hadsolidified the attitude implied by the hits, and saw thegroup made defiantly outrageous gestures, both musicallyand visually. What would their next move be? The ensuing album, “Future”, seemed at once bothcalculated and confused. For some, it represents the Seeds’ grand psychedelic statement, a mind-blowingarticulation of the flower power movement of whichthey had been proclaimed torchbearers. To others,“Future” is Sky Saxon’s folly: an over-egged,
acid-damaged pudding that submerged the true power ofthe band with meaningless grandeur. The truth liessomewhere between. A narcissistic over-confidence madeSky feel the need to now augment Daryl, Jan and Rickin the studio with numerous overdubs strings, harp,tuba on hastily cobbled material that brimmed withbizarre lyrical concepts. On certain tracks the combinationworked fine, on others it seemed almost like a parody ofpsychedelia. Nevertheless, “Future” contains manyfan favourites such asPainted Doll”, Flower Lady”,Two Fingers” and “A Thousand Shadows”.
