We have so many cool Seasick Exclusives that deserve a little extra love, so each week a different member of the Seasick Team will spotlight one of their favorites!
First up, Taylor with @mort.garson ’s JOURNEY TO THE MOON AND BEYOND, a posthumous release of previously unreleased and unheard tracks on “Jupiter” colored vinyl. Limited to 300 copies between Seasick and @endofanear from @sacredbones !
Grab a copy online or in-store!
Happy Mother’s Day! 🪴
For Mother’s Day I decided to go with Mother Earth’s Plantasia. On the front cover shows “Warm Earth music for plants… and the people who love them.” The album being Mothers and the plants being their children was my initial thought when selecting this album.
Featured in this reel are 3 of my 4 copies of the album…
1. 2022 German pressing (Dracula celosia red and grey)
2. 1976 original pressing from Mother Earth’s Plant Boutique (with original booklet)
3. 1976 original “Simmons” pressing from Sears (Sealed, with the infamous “knife mark”)

We’re about one month away from Plantasia at Garfield Park Conservatory! Two beautiful summer evenings listening to some of the best explorative, experimental music in the world, amidst the blossoming, fragrant foliage. A match made in heaven.
