Title: "Think Pink" (Original 1970 US Sire Vinyl LP Housed In Superb Gatefold Cover) 

Format: Vinyl LP - From 1970, comes the totally CLASSIC and ULTRA RARE MONSTER British psychedelic LP by the legendary ex Pretty Things and onetime Pink Fairies member Twink entitled "Think Pink" issued on Sire SES 97022 blue and white label. This is a rare original US pressing of one of the truly seminal and key UK psychedelic LP's from 1970. The LP comes housed in a glorious super thick gatefold cover with notes inside the gatefold. This is amongst the strangest and most psychedelic lp's to EVER come out of the late 60's UK scene - Absolutely Brilliant Mindblowing Stuff!!! For starters check out 'The Coming Of The Other One' and 'Ten Thousand Words In A Cardboard Box',the whole album just never lets up,a totally crazed psych masterpiece!! Great rear cover photo of Twink holding a girl who's mind is obviously not on this earth! Prior to recording this killer psych album,John Alder aka TWINK, had been in several other legendary 60's groups, such as The Pretty Things, Tomorrow, The Deviants, The Aquarian Age, and would soon go on to play in the much loved PINK FAIRIES.

This Fabulous Original Vinyl Album Is A Superb Example Of British Late 60's Acid Psychedelia.
