about

THE LEGENDARY 60s RnB UPSTARTS' THIRD ALBUM FROM 1967 - FEATURING 7 BONUS TRACKS

INCLUDING THE SINGLES "DEATH OF A SOCIALITE", "PHOTOGRAPHER" AND "A HOUSE IN THE COUNTRY"

"The Pretty Things always made ‘The Stones’ look tame, and I think the time has come for their renaissance” Dave Gilmour, Pink Floyd

The Pretty Things, iconic 1st wave R&B cult heroes, created some of the most exciting and innovative records of the sixties and early seventies. Winners of the Hero award at the 2009 Mojo Honours, the band have been a massive success and a huge influence on artists as diverse as David Bowie, Aerosmith, The Ramones, Bob Dylan, The Sex Pistols, The White Stripes, Kasabian and many, many more. 2018 saw the release of a 50th-anniversary S.F. Sorrow box set and the band's final and extensive UK & European tour, which included a performance of S.F. Sorrow in full at the Isle of Wight Festival and ends at a farewell show in London at Indigo at the O2 with an impressive supporting line-up of David Gilmour and Van Morrison.

The 1967 release Emotions bridged the gap between the R’n’B era of The Pretty Things and the psychedelic Sgt. Pepper and Pink Floyd era of their ’68 release S.F. Sorrow. This album is almost an exact snapshot of swinging London at its purest.

Other bands played R&B, of course... the Kinks, the Yardbirds, even the Beatles tried their hand at it. But none of them played it like the Pretty Things. Their hair was long, their music was greasy, and they genuinely did not understand how to turn down the volume on their amplifiers.

“David Bowie worshipped Phil (May) – Phil had to write his telephone number in David Bowie’s book, and it was under ‘G’ for God!” Dick Taylor, The Pretty Things
