Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over 18,000 positive feedback. We use an ultrasonic KLAudio machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery. We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music!

The 'real deal' = rare, original 1965 (((MONO))) first pressing of the legendary very first PRETTY THINGS ...the Pretty Things were Gods in the hands of the Rolling Stones ... equally as great as ANYTHING the early STONES ever did, rare and frantic rave-ups amid melodic infusions...many many bands tried to copy the PRETTY THINGS style & sound, but no one could ever equal them...
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
This, the PRETTY THINGS first album, is raw British R&B played with swagger and attitude. Think early Stones but with more personality. This and the Who's My Generation are two of my favorite debuts because both are played with such abandon. The sense of aggression and good times comes thru in the grooves. Tho' mostly, if not all, covers, the Pretties' take what was standard and clearly make them their own songs. The foundation for the greatness that follows and a should be recognized classic from that time.
In the mid-60s is was fashionable to be the wildest band of the planet. When the Pretties arrived, they were presented as wilder than The Rolling Stones. Phil May's voice has got the power and toughness (he shouts to be a real bad boy) of Mick Jagger, Van Morrison and Eric Burdon.
The Pretties first producer, Jack Beverstock said when he first met them: "I'm not staying down there with this bunch of animals!". The band had been presented to him as: "Five unruly youths with a passion for rhythm, blues and random acts of senseless mayhem".
We can understand he could be powerless in taming the guys!Now the music is the similar rhythm n'blues made by the Stones, Them, Kinks etc. And it's quite interesting...
