English rock band formed in 1963, noted for early freakbeat/garage work and the 1968 concept album S.F. Sorrow.

Formed in 1963. Dick Taylor was an early member of the Rolling Stones before leading The Pretty Things. S.F. Sorrow (1968) is often cited as an early rock opera/concept album. Reviews on DeBaser praise Get The Picture? (1965), S.F. Sorrow and Parachute for their energy and ambition.

DeBaser reviews present The Pretty Things as a crucial 1960s English rock band. Critics praise Get The Picture?, S.F. Sorrow and Parachute for freakbeat, psychedelic and conceptual ambition. Overall reception across the provided reviews is strongly positive.

For:Fans of 1960s British rock, psychedelia, garage/freakbeat collectors and listeners of classic concept albums.

 I refer to that ramshackle and essential freakbeat sorbet named "Get The Picture ?" (1965!!!).
