Original Seeds

Original Seeds: Songs that inspired Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds are two compilation albums. Volume one was issued in 1998, Volume two in 2004, initially on the Rubber Records label in Australia, but also in the UK.

Liner notes by the producer Kim Beissel describe the link between each track and works by Cave throughout his career. Most were directly covered by Cave, while some were adapted, or borrowed from, to form new songs.

In January 2009, Beissel appeared as a DJ at the Nick Cave curated festival All Tomorrow's Parties at Mount Buller, Australia.

Famous quotes containing the words original and/or seeds:

    “There is no original truth, only original error.”
    —Gaston Bachelard (1884–1962)

    “The history of any nation follows an undulatory course. In the trough of the wave we find more or less complete anarchy; but the crest is not more or less complete Utopia, but only, at best, a tolerably humane, partially free and fairly just society that invariably carries within itself the seeds of its own decadence.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
