In Episode 27, we discuss the class of 1965 slow-burn serenade “Can’t Seem To Make You Mine” by the Seeds and its sonic spunk of twangy guitar, wild Wurlitzer, and Sky Saxon’s sui generis doo-wop spoken-word section (1:04). The middle child this week is the philosopher of bad vibes, Alex Chilton, and the reverent mockery of his 1978 version (47:20). Spank Rock and Diplo are at the hot corner with their 2005 track, “Put that Pussy On Me” – a hip hop song with the sampled Seeds song shimmering spectrally in the background (1:17:51). If that wasn’t enough for you, we include a gassy version from the mysterious demo tape found under a Caragana bush behind a house on 38th Avenue and Ross Street in Red Deer, which appears to be by a band called The Anteseedents (2:01:15)
