The Pretty Things - The Pretty Things

MID-PRICE CD REISSUE OF THE BAND'S DEBUT STUDIO ALBUM FROM 1965. REMASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES

The Pretty Things created some of the most exciting and innovative records of the late sixties and early seventies. Winners of the Hero award at the 2009 Mojo Honours, the band have been name checked over the years by an array of artists ranging from The Clash, David Bowie and Aerosmith through to The Libertines and Kasabian.

The band first burst onto the scene in 1965 with a blend of raw, explosive R&B, this their debut album which reached no. 6 in the UK album charts. Over the course of several albums they evolved into psychedelic pioneers, releasing the first ever rock opera, with S.F. Sorrow, which is now celebrating its 50th anniversary. They followed this with 1970's Parachute, which was named Rolling Stone's album of the year (ahead of Let It Be, Bridge Over Troubled Water, Atom Heart Mother and Led Zeppelin III).

This edition of The Pretty Things' debut will be released as a mid-price CD in a digipack packaging complete with a 16-page booklet.
