THE PRETTY THINGS

 PHIL MAY, VIV PRINCE, DICK TAYLOR, BRIAN PENDLETON, JOHN STAX

Seminal British R&B band that never broke big, despite talent to spare 

and a notable psychedelic masterpiece in 1968's S.F. Sorrow.

Of all the original British Invasion groups, perhaps none were as underappreciated 

in the United States as the Pretty Things. Featuring the hoarse vocals of Mick Jagger-lookalike Phil May 

and the stinging leads of guitarist Dick Taylor (who actually played in early versions 

of the Rolling Stones with Jagger and Keith Richards), the Pretties recorded a clutch 

of raunchy R&B rockers in the mid-'60s that offered a punkier, rawer version of the early Stones sound

In their good moments here, the Pretty Things approach Rolling Stones' territory, 

and even in their off moments, they're flying at the same level 

as the Kinks' album tracks...(AllMusic)
