can't seem to make you mine

In reading up on the Black Lips, I came across multiple references to The Seeds, one of the Black Lips' biggest influences, and one of the originators of the psychedelic brand of garage/surf rock that has since been coined "flower punk." My only previous exposure to the Seeds was the appearance of their hit "Mr. Farmer" on the Almost Famous soundtrack, but I checked out the band's 1966 self-titled debut LP on the recommendation of a friend, and it's pretty awesome. Here's the opening track from that album, which was later sampled by Diplo on his amazing remix of Spank Rock's "Put That Pussy on Me"
