You will have to wait a little while for the full Spaceship album but this is a good taste of what is to come ! Also the great hits are well represented. If you dig psychedelic music, check this out, its where it all started. Sky and the band jam madly on the tracks, and he whips up rock n roll fervor like no other. Quite simply the man is the foundation of all that came after. Like Bo Diddley in the fifties, Sky quite simply changed the music, and this is a great example of an artist who is as vibrant and creative as ever. Rock on indeed !

Album Notes
Garage rock pioneer Sky Saxon originally made his name as the front man and chief songwriter of The Seeds. The scourge of the Los Angeles rock scene, the Seeds were infamous for their repetitive, distortion-heavy sound and for Saxon's snotty adolescent whine. Saxon's 2005 release, TRANSPARENCY, is steeped in the classic Seeds sound, boasting a set of primitive rockers featuring plenty of fuzztone guitar, one finger organ-riffs, and compelling psycho-babble from the inimitable Saxon.
