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:

    What is most original in a man’s nature is often that which is most desperate. Thus new systems are forced on the world by men who simply cannot bear the pain of living with what is. Creators care nothing for their systems except that they be unique. If Hitler had been born in Nazi Germany he wouldn’t have been content to enjoy the atmosphere.
    Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)

    They say the seeds of what we will do are in all of us, but it always seemed to me that in those who make jokes in life the seeds are covered with better soil and with a higher grade of manure.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
