seed of memory by terry reid

I caught the end if Rob Zombie's 2005 Devils Rejects on TV late last night.

I was mesmerised by the closing music and looked up the song. I'd not heard of it and never heard of the artist either, who I was amazed to find was a famous rock musician during the Seventies, MY decade! He even turned down being Zep's singer it says on Wiki! Zep!

Anyways, have a listen to yourself: Seed of Memory by Terry Reid, the most beautiful male singing voice I've heard in decades and I can't believe I've never heard it before! The lyrics are wonderful as well!

Hope you enjoy it too.

  1. There are many people,myself included, that feel the exact way about this song.I think it serves to soothe the viewer's nerves after a white knuckle viewing experience like The Devil's Rejects.

    1. I thought it would have been noticed Brian, a great song. I think there's two or three of Terry R's songs in the D's Rejects. It had a similar haunting effect on me as when I first heard the brilliant Last Time by Rory Gallagher https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgHyLpaVQ5s
