Enjoyed Terry Reid documentary on KZbin. In fact have tickets for his May 5th 2024 performance in PA USA.yay! FOUND on line copy of The Rolling Stones letter to Terrys parents(pull Terry(age 15) out of school to go on Rolling Stones, Cream tour. If he should put out his autobiography the stories he has. Just check out all his interviews thru the yrs. His friend Joe Bonomassa has a great one.Course he has one of Terry's in his guitar collection.love Terry Reid!

[@user-ty9ob3pn9u]

Right

[@jph4889]

HOLY SHIT I was not expecting that voice to come out of him.

[@bigjohnvinegar6227]

Talent does not age.

[@martinconcannon7140]

One day people will realize what this man is, thank you Terry Reid your a fucking dude.

[@MrGabbo85]

+Martin Concannon a MAN... this song hits so hard to me..

[@tommyritthaler4850]

this is my favorite song of all time

[@tommyritthaler]

This song almost makes me cry EVERY time I hear it. So heartfelt.

[@suzesunshine1]

This is not an out of tune guitar,,,it is a style of playing and the discordant tune of the song....IT is a Delta Blues style . Terry , older, but Still great !

[@natebeakley5494]

Watch this old man by himself playing an out of tune guitar play with more passion than a lot of people do today.

[@LAmourDeViva]

You're so right! There are artist out there, but the mainstream isn't allowing it to be heard which is unfortunate for our children!

[@natebeakley5494]

That's why I love the internet! You can find anything if you're willing to dig for it!

[@LAmourDeViva]

Nate Beakley And you are right!!

[@anmlize]

it's not out of tune.. it's in drop d

[@weswatson4616]

+anmlize lassiter theres drop d then theres out of tune drop d...which this is. it isnt an insult because he flat out, pun not intended, kills it.

[@gronolachunks]

Honestly the out-of-tuneness of the guitar bring more feeling to the song, and his voice is absolutely great no matter how old they get, once a great singer always a great singer :) and this song is

[@andywilliamson9784]

halley martin just so u know it is not a out of tune guitar it is tuned to what is called downtune or known as drop tune

[@gronolachunks]

Andy Williamson pretty sure its out of tune. I play I know an out of tune guitar when I hear it lol its not bad it was just something i noticed. I like how it makes this sound.

[@latoyarichardson3018]

Loved this song in devils rejects . Made me cry. Now I love this song and downloaded to my phone 2yrs ago :-)

[@keegslay]

me 2 :)

[@jackoo666]

+Latoya Richardson im glad I wasnt the only one who cried.

[@Jackdelroy1]

So true, i still shed a tear when watching that film and listening to Terry's songs. He never got the praise that he deserves.

[@nickademus03227]

love it when they get old and still relevant.

[@MoRobi0515]

Good musicians never grow irrelevant as we already know...Namaste

[@fungiuse]

Last month I had the pleasure of meeting Terry Reid at Johnny Depp's home in LA. He sang a few of his hits for us. His voice is not as velvety as once it was, but he can still turn any song inside out!!!

[@justinwray7468]

You know Johnny Depp?

[@tylern2908]

Sounds like a true pleasure I live in New England (mass originally but now VT ) I'd live to meet Terry and also I had a pipe dream to ask him to play at a small concert for my sweetheart and I. 😅 💙 I can dream

[@dawsonnichols2581]

I fall asleep to this video every night

[@sociableworker]

Goes to show that age has little to do with passion.Truly gifted singer who still delivers.

[@ADAMROGERSISBOSS]

such a bad ass song performed by an influential and genius songwriter not to mention an absolutely amazing musician

[@j.a.armour2427]

WOW! What a performance! I saw him live back in 1970 at The Kinetic Playground in Chicago and was so impressed by him that I bought his LP that has Superlung, July etc. on it. I didn't realize he was so outstanding. But he certainly is!

[@Chenoah.]

Jealous!!!

[@davinalopez-oz1ez]

😂😂😂😂

[@paullevine1813]

Thank you Terry for so many great years of music without ever compromising your fine songs & sowing so many Seeds of Memory.

[@artsoucier6513]

This guy got music right down to his core. His music will never get old for me. Thanks Terry!

[@jimiprice6182]

Wow1 WHAT A GREAT VOICE, this sounds great and very moving.

[@youngsm0ke]

Such an amazing voice!, Terry is one of my all time favorite classic rock artists.

[@genenoir7048]

Wow....just wow...he STILL has that beautiful voice

[@briaunamarie22]

Goosebumps..

[@CharlesGorrie]

I’ve loved terry since the 60’s. Seen him twice. And this song is an absolute belter. No one plays guitar like terry Reid

[@jimiprice6182]

I cant quit listening to this song, what a voice.

[@multidenniss]

Wow WHAT A SONG MAN. HE ACTUALLY SOUNDS BETTER NOW. WHAT A VOICE MAN.. PRICELESS.. I DONT THINK THIS SONG COULD EVER GET OLD ... GENIUS..

[@TheOutlawSeeker]

I drove over 250 miles to one of his gigs to listen to this song only and it was worth every single penny

[@j.a.armour2427]

How many people could even sing this song at all? Terry's natural syncopation is just out of this world! Try counting 1, 2, 3, 4 to this all the way through the song. Then add the passion he puts into the song. He even hits his notes. Is there ANY singer today who is comparable to Terry Reid? If there is I haven't heard of such a singer.

[@lads.7715]

This guy turned down a chance to sing with both Led zeppelin and Deep Purple!

[@WeareLightmusic]

Lad S. AND the Beatles!!!

[@veenosmooth]

Lad S. because he is Original.. respect

[@F150fx2sporT]

Imagine stairway to heaven with his voice. I’m dead lol

[@gronolachunks]

He didnt need em he made it on his own.. maybe not as well known but hands down made better music.

[@paullevine1813]

@@gronolachunks Finally someone that gets it...

[@rossrobinson2084]

Legend

[@betsareoff]

Had the Terry Reid album in the 70s that this song was originally on. What an awesome song. Hadn't heard it in 30 years until today. Just happened on this site by accident. What a voice this guy had. It sounds pretty good here too.

[@ciaranrooney3979]

This is what music is all about

[@metbaer]

The way he performs it, now as an old man, makes the song even better!!!

[@pu81nk]

To be remembered through TIME and a voice that aged like fine wine.

[@charissys]

Love hearing him play the guitar. His performance gives me chills. Love it

[@SuperMcabral]

I see what addiction did to a beautiful boy I loved from 1969 but I have seen he has cleaned up in the past few years and touring-makes my heart rejoice-he is the best of the best of artists, songwriters, guitarists, and singers who never sold out! He sang and played from a deeper place than most.

[@SusieSynth]

Martie Cabral what was he addicted to im curious. i love his stuff and he was very beautiful when he was young.

[@dawhoda1]

Susie Moonwalker he don't know, he's assuming cuz he looks old it's because of drugs rather than Umm...... JUST GETTING OLD SMH

[@stephenkennedy9687]

Besides the sensational Alex Harvey

[@SheikOfShake]

Addiction adds color and shade to a story and a voice and music. It's made this stunningly beautiful. Everything happens for a reason.

Brave dreams that are kindled from ashes Rise out over all the battle below Spread wings over all that he passes So his life can stay immortal to his country All the shades of green that fall beneath this tree So let the winds of change that rearrange the country Let it also sow a seed of memory Marlena in the cool satin sashes Spread dreams over the battle below Bring love with a song as she passes So his life can stay immortal to the country And let every man aware of being free Mmm, when she talks of times when wine is handed to me From a face that walked out of a memory And now that the battle is done And you wake up in the morning With the sun up in the sky Summer never gives you no warning then Flowers are getting thrown up to cover the mud up on the line Valleys getting greener and there's Nothing but love on your mind Brave dreams that are kindled from ashes Rise out over the battle below Spread wings over all that he passes So his life can stay immortal to the country Other shades of the green that brought for me a victory But the winds of change, have rearranged this country Let in also sow the seed of memory, yeah Let it always sow the seed of memory, yeah Let it always sow the seed of memory, yeah Songwriters Reid Terence James Published by HOUSE OF DREAMS MUSIC LTD.

[@paulstyrbicki113]

I simply love this song!

[@asotolp]

Amazing!!! I don't know why this is song is never on any of the "Greatest 100 songs of all-time" list because it totally is!! This song is the reason you have great musicians like Chris Cornell and many others around today! Simply amazing!!

[@susanbradshaw339]

Chris admired Terry which is why he sang one of Terry's covers on his last album...

[@sn7miller]

People seem to be justifying why they are complementing this "old man" LOL... Maybe just unaware he is a highly accomplished musician who was Jimmy Pages FIRST CHOICE FOR Vocals for the New Yard Birds which later became Led Zeppelin. He was under contract and couldnt join but recommended Robert Plant. The rest is history! Oh, he also had to turn down Deep Purple for vocals. So yeah, it's a bit amusing to see comments of those surprised on how good this "old man" is!!!

[@mr_nobody_000]

amen the man is a legend

[@markusimminenteluna6906]

We are blessed with the sound of Terry Reid.. imagine if he had taken those other gigs.. I can't

[@walterospina6226]

Terry Reid Is Without a doubt,One of the most talented musicians of all time in my opinion.My Father took me to see him perform while we were in Texas a few years ago. I Have to say that Seed Of Memory is my favorite song he ever wrote.that and Brave Awakening and To Be Treated Rite. Also Cause All Three songs were in the devil's rejects, one of my favorite movies. Just the passion he has for music is unbelievable.Bless you Mr.Reid

[@digoxin]

I heard he got over the "comedian" type of costume and presentation on the last tour... was absolutely serious and just stunning in all his glory. Good thing, too. These songs are so powerful they should be treated with respect bordering on awe.

[@DinosaurLifeAvery]

If your heart cant feel that man giving everything he has to that song your already dead

[@robreigns5357]

I love this song such passion and strength in it

[@SuperThissucks]

Come back to America one more time Terry PLEASE!!!! As much as I would LOVE to see you in a small pub in Britain I really can't afford it. Tell you what...if you come out you can stay with my wife and I and have some home cookin, and you will be "treated right" I missed you when you played Santa Monica and have been kicking myself ever since. Thanks for all the wonderful music.

[@rodizatt9087]

Loved sitting at the same table with Terry outside the 3 Horse Shoes in Houghton on a summer night. Love this track... Fortunately I was able to see Terry do a live gig close to where I live, but would travel the world for this tune live. Love your memories. Don't deny them. :)

[@offshoresteve1]

I bought Seed of Memory in the 70s...loved it but as on vinyl I forgot about it for last 30 years... was looking for something new to play on guitar tonight and remembered Terry doing this one . Had a fun 3 hrs learning this and drove my wife crazy. Seeing this raw version is great although I stuck with the album version. major talented guy and had chances with various top 70s bands which he passed on. Thanks for the music man.

[@billyvassi]

@1180jrock... i was there, flew alone from canada just for that performance. a lucky 29 yr old who stumbled across terrys music decades ago and finally came across it years ago and since has changed my life. Sat with a stranger and mused as we took it all in . Took a cab back to my hotel in New York and realized how little of the truly beautiful world I have seen and it filled me with hope.

[@nemmysis1]

wow he is singing this song 30 years after it was first released and it sounds just as good as the original. Just amazing.

[@truthbespoken7750]

10/16/2022 and still jamming out this true classic masterpiece.

[@pyannaguy]

Terry Reid opened for Cream at The Baltimore Civic Center way the Hell back in the late 60's, and was mezmerizing. "Season of the Witch" was haunting. Just TR, an organist and a drummer. Forty years ago and I can remember that night. So glad I lived through and experienced the music of the 60's and 70's. Nothing like it!

[@anmlize]

It's not about what you play.. It's about how you feel about what you play

[@Sherleelee]

thats where i 1st herd it aswell, and ever since i have just been such a die hard fan for him! its amazing! Makes me so calm and happy when ever i hear this song.

[@Recovrd1]

I watch this every day now...

I hope every American hear this

[@HIPCHIP]

I knew Terry briefly back in the late 80's and he was a really nice, and very talented guy. Nice seeing vid's of him.

[@markwilesmith5599]

A fucken incredible performence. The vocals are sublime and the discordant guitar a rock symphony to back them up. Ten out of ten!

[@clockworkmike83]

Straight up, same place I heard it myself. Had it not been for that great movie and it's awesome soundtrack I might've never had the chance to hear Terry Reid, who is an amazing singer and writer

Hope we never lose this video.

There's a lion locked in the heart of the great Terry Reid clawing his way out with every word and strum. If the road to heaven and hell had a soundtrack I'd wish I could listen to this on the way.

[@TriaBoy25]

one of the best songs i have ever heard in my entire life and will probably remain one of the best if not thee best.

I've owned the Groupies and Glastonbury vids for decades and have been waiting for this stuff. So glad to finally see him again!

Absolutely legendary. You can feel the passion.

[@quasda]

I was not expecting THAT. Wow, incredible.

[@exposfan77]

Every once in a while there's a song that takes one to a very special place. This is one of those songs. I also discovered this from the Rob Zombie movie. Thanks Rob for including it in the movie, and thanks Terry for writing such a beautiful piece. A great song stands the test of time, and I heard this for the first time this week, 41 years after it was written, and thought it was an amazing song written for the film. That says it all.

[@billyvassi]

i just discovered his music this month. his life has such a story to it it , it almost makes sense he never made it to mass consumption. i dont know about all of you but i smile knowing i stumbled across one of the most beautiful secrets ever.

[@johnnyclash1701]

He gets better with time. Legend.

[@blarpings]

almost a whole life lived without the recognition that he deserves, yet he isn't bitter, he just keeps on playing, and that makes him truly an artist

[@highron2]

talk about feeling the music this is insane and i love it

[@stefanlane4517]

Funny how some people can listen to music and never "hear" it. So much history in this video. Thank you, Terry.
