Art Barker The Actor
marshall:
KC and the Sunshine Band. The only connection that comes to mind: When I was on my program, there was a black guy named rufus that was close friends with either KC or one of the band members. He was an oldtimer that came in and related on a regular basis. He spoke about knowing Kc and the band during one of the seed xmas programs as I recall.

Oh Yeah, I definitely remember this, and Doc got up to make a speech about his support and he made some comment about the "a few of the guys in the band could use a program like this", it was pretty uncomfortable. watching johnny carson a few years later did I realize that most of the guys in the band were stoned most of the time...

Hey!
I am a product of "The Seed" in 1972 and you cannot classify it as a cult, actually if you didn't experience the seed, then you have no valid accusations to make. I am 47 now and I remember those days when I was 15/16 yrs. old and in the seed in St. Pete behind Tyrone mall, those were very memorable days!!!
Art Barker was a real nice down to earth guy that was interested in gettin the hippie youth on a clean path, it worked for me, cause I have been straight since!

Ummmm, do you understand what a cult is? That's part of the definition right there.
