The Pretty Things - S.F. Sorrow Live In London flac album

The Pretty Things' early history in the studio featured the band with its amps seemingly turned up to 11, but for much of . Sorrow the band is turned down to seven or four, or even two, or not amplified at all (except for Wally Allen's bass - natch), and they're doing all kinds of folkish things

Pretty Things in Wuppertal, Germany, November 11, 1967. The album opener, . Sorrow Is Born, introduces the character of . Sorrow and sets the tone for what’s to come musically, with mellotron, trumpets and eastern scales. Phil May: I’d written this short story called Cutting Up Sergeant Time, which was all based loosely about somebody in the First World War, in trenches. As expected, the audience wanted more than that, for example a band playing live. Like a few other timeless albums released in 1968, such as The Kinks Are The Village Green Preservation Society and The Zombies’ Odessey and Oracle, the following years were not kind to the album.

After 55 years of live performing, The Pretty Things - the iconic, 1st wave, R&B cult heroes, formed by Ex Rolling Stone Dick Taylor, and singer, Phil May - will retire from electric performances at the end of this year. The Pretty Things are an indelible part of the fabric of popular music and the social influence that it has created. Still creating significant front-line records today and with such influential work as their ground-breaking masterpiece and world's first rock opera - S. F. Sorrow - which celebrates its 50th Anniversary this year, in their back catalogue, they remain a hugely significant artistic and creative force. Their farewell show in London will feature guest appearances from significant old friends David Gilmour, Van Morrison and some new young gunslingers to make sure they go out like they came in - with all guns blazing and taking no prisoners.
