At age 63, Richard Marsh, better known as Sky
Saxon, died today in the Austin, Texas hospital he checked in to Monday.
Saxon gave the distinctively styled vocals to—and was the driving
force of—LA band the Seeds, who charted strong with Pushin' Too Hard
and the lesser known I Can't Seem to Make You Mine circa '67. I hope
the newly announced Los Angeles Nuggets box set, Where the Action is, will have some rarer Seeds' tunes not featured in previous Nuggets collections.
Then there was the mashup with Ms. Bettie Page
Was Casey Kasem the host for Shebang? Sure sounds and looks like him.
Here's one that, outside of music geeks and YouTube browsers, is rarely listened to.
