PRETTY THINGS, The

Re-Release 2009 -  Comes in special hard jewel box
One of the best english R&B; Psych Bands, harder & better players like the STONES.
Released album S.F.SORROW in 1968 very great psych concept Rock album which
influenced the WHO & KINKS too.
The album "PARACHUTE" was named  best album in 1970 by the famous
ROLLING STONE magazine.
Reunion with Dick Taylor &  Wally Waller (back from producing) in the end 70s, with one great album
connected to the Punk & Wave Scene at time...but sorry again no success.
