Commander Cody Band - "Down to Seeds and Stems Again Blues" ....Live @ Turkey Trot!

[amj20007]

a real tearjerker

[Clamman4U]

In my poor past I've had too...!!!

[cmaurer51]

one of my alltime favorites

[rjl032653]

Whatta blast from the past! I only saw the Commander once with the original LPA crew back in 1970. We were goofing around Boston one evening in the Back Bay and came across this incredibly great sound coming from one of the night clubs (Passims?). Anyways, we had to check that band out and we were treated to one of the really great, tight bands that came out of that era. It's a shame digital recording was about 40 years too late to get the music of that era in it's youthful glory....

[MrSanteeclaus]

I think the good commander has lived out the songs that he wrote

[jehovahuponyou]

The Commodore has always been 100% drug free - of course, at a glance you can see how even a minute bit of drugs can be of help!

ROFL!

GREAT VIDEO - SING IT BUDDY!

[SuperIntuitive1]

The worlds saddest song!

[rjplamf61]

This dude is the real thing. Not this bubble gum shit they play on that pasty ass country channel. Makes me want to gag everytime I pass by it.

[fishordie2]

@rjplamf61 i agree. i'm from Alabama and all my friends listen to all that pop-country bullshit. Commander Cody is what us true southerners want to hear!

[tabber87]

He's aged well.

[TheHawkeyemark]

You know George is a race fan. Even saw Seretarat I believe. May be wrong there Commander but I know you cried when you saw the movie. We all like winners- and you are the triple crown of what you do- music, lyrics, humor. The Stevens Point, Wi brothers. Cold as night- hot music!

[MaceMn]

I jus' thank God that I'm old enuf to have toked up some good ol' Panama Red, Thai Stick & Acapulco Gold et al.

[sjkennedy100]

@MaceMn I wish I could have introduced Sensemillian,back then(yank the males)

[betzdoodle43]

One of the good ole songs from way back!!! Aww youth...twas a magical time. Fifties not so awful bad either. Maui memories...was fun. Asi es la vida! <3 ;)

[21susan59]

[MaceMn]

@wooflar lol let's all head over to hateman's!!

[Baddoggone]

The story of America now, miss the good old days. Great song.

[zzwoody1]

I remember when George, The Commaner, and his band used to Play in the Arb, in Ann Arbor, for free, as did the MC5, leaves of Grass and others. Andy Stine is now on Prairie Home Companion.

[skinnrod]

this is what my dad listened to and i miss him alot... good times. im too young to understand it but it reminds me of him.

[modelleg]

Fat Freddy sez: weed will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no weed.

[OldHippieEnt]

@modelleg I bleeve that was Freewheelin' Franklin.

[gunslinger5854]

@OldHippieEnt Truer words were never spoken. But for some reason I still can't remember whose boots Fat Freddies cat kept shittin in. Maybe it was the bong hits, sadly I don't remember If I had a bong or not. You still gotta love The Fabulous Furry Freak Bros. I can't remember if I was one of them or not. The 60s and 70s were just a big blur if you know what I mean. But I think the music was way cool I think. I think I am. Therefore I am. I think. Of course you are my bright little star........

[TheEldoradoKid]

@gunslinger5854 Well I'll be dipped in Dogshit! YASSSS! yer just beggin fur a response, OK so it was indeed Freewheelin Franklin's boots that Fat Freddies Cat kept shittin in, I still have Freak Brother Comix 1-6 stashed in my basement along with Zap #1 and a copy of the Newsweek magazine with coverage of Woodstock in it. You know the sad part? I actually threw away what was left of my 20 year old stash because of my employment security clearance and piss tests, and voted Republican last week.

[gunslinger5854]

@TheEldoradoKid Well we tried Democrats so let's try the other for a change. I still remember my girlfriend coming back from New York with the first copy of Checkered Demon. What an X rated comic that one was. You should have seen her mother when she found it! Nothing like a good dose of headphone music, some weed and a decent comic to stare at for hours. Those were the really good old days. I sure do miss the late 60s and early 70s. Music will never be the same!

[TheEldoradoKid]

@gunslinger5854 Man, I remember when I was in college back in the late 70s and first heard CC and his LPA sing "Everybodys Doin' It" in my dorm room, I just absolutly laughed my ass off! In Albuquerque, The University of New Mexico's NPR radio station KUNM was legendary for pushing the envelope with such songs and formats. The Assylum Show on Friday nights with DJ "Malachai Mudgong" was legendary, and played lots of CC / LPA, and other "questionable" songs. .

[TheDreamgenie]

@TheEldoradoKid ya lost it!

[TheDreamgenie]

@TheEldoradoKid I'll trade ya yer book and ole stash fer a Teabag vote from me, LOL! wtf is wrong with you?????

[mountnhome]

@modelleg as well as : .."A friend with weed is a friend indeed!"

[loneranger3169]

@modelleg ....EXACTLY 

[rickheddle]

@modelleg  Amen brother!!!

[skatrock1]

@modelleg it was phineas

[modelleg]

@skatrock1

I was corrected earlier: Freewheelin Frank said those immortal words.

[1953moedog]

If our kids only knew 1/2 of what went on in the late 60's and 70's. My son and I are both down to stems, NO SEEDS.

[ronniefisk]

I'm down to dust and IOUs. So sad. Commsnder Cody helps.

[billyleedee]

I'm with Phil,,, In the hot days, ole George was rocking.. Things were hot,,,, and these guys were doing it now ! Actually sorry to see how it seems to be in the last days ..

I worked for Rick Higgenbottom and the Ozone road crew, hauling their band equipment around ... It was hot in the old days, I was 18 and got quite an education ..

[texas76670]

This song brings a tear to my eye even now! Rock on Commander.

[baileytom78]

well i'm almost down to seeds and stems but not there yet thank god for the herbs OH YEA plant your seeds and brew tea with the stems

[parmamagoo]

Bobby.... your always down to seeds and stems... what gives?

[MaceMn]

Great tune!! It's makin' me weep into my bong . * sniff *

[PhilandaSmif]

If the kids today could only have seen George perform in his prime and have met him as I did. The early seventies shows were 'too much fun'!

[Beeglz]

You go to jail for havin' too much fun!!!
