I love it when the appropriate video hits YouTube this quickly:
“The Seed” sounds strangely like a slowed down “Twist.” I’m just sayin.
The guitarist for Booker T should be Troy Gonyea, not Gagne.
He used to play for the Thunderbirds as well, and he is an outstanding Worcester, MA based guitarist. Check out his band “The Howl”.
