The Pretty Things: Emotions (LP, 180g Vinyl, Ltd.)

(Madfish) 12 tracks
The 1967 release "Emotions" bridged the gap between the R'n'B era of The Pretty Things and the psychedelic Sergeant Pepper and Pink Floyd era of their '68 release 'SF Sorrow'. The album is almost an accurate snapshot of swinging London in its purest form.

The Pretty Things were formed in 1963 by Phil May and guitarist Dick Taylor. Taylor was hot from the early days of the Rolling Stones, the band he formed with Mick Jagger and Keith Richard but left because it was time to go to art school; May was a hooligan masquerading as a fellow student; and the rest of the band just carried on from there.

Other bands were playing R&B, of course.... the Kinks, the Yardbirds, even the Beatles tried their hand at it. But none of them played it like the Pretty Things. Their hair was long, their music was greasy, and they really didn't understand how to turn down the volume on their amps. "The Pretty Things always made 'The Sfones' look tame, and I think it's time they retired."-Dave Gilmour, Pink Floyd

"David Bowie adored Phil (May) - Phil had to put his phone number in David Bowie's book, and it was under 'G' for God!" - Dick Taylor, The Pretty Things

"The Pretty Things"

The Pretty Things, formed by the Rolling Stones' original bass guitarist, Dick Taylor, and Phil May (born on Sept. 11, 1944) at Sidcup Art College in the autumn of 1963, were doomed by their scruffy image and Bo Diddley-bAsed rhy-thm and blues to the role of poor man's Stones. With Taylor switching to lead guitar, the rest of the line-up was May (vocals, harmonica), Brian Pendleton (rhythm guitar), John Stax (bass, harmonica), Viv Prince (drums).

They were signed up almost at once as the R&B boom hit the music in-dustry, but after early hits, the double-sided 'Big Boss Man'/ `Rosalyn' (Miy, 1964), 'Don't Bring Me Down' (November, 1964) and 'Honey I Need' (March, 1965) on Fontana, they failed to make the Stones' shift to their own material until, in a reorganized line-up, May and Taylor composed the biographical S. F. Sorrow (Harvest, 1968), supposedly an encouragement — if not an influence — for Pete Townshend's Tommy project. Following the departure of Taylor and the failure of the highly regarded Parachute album in 1969, the band folded for a time, re-forming to record Freeway Mad-ness (Warner Bros., 1972). In 1974, with May, Peter Tol-son (guitar), John Povey (keyboards), and Skip Alan (drums) still together from the Parachute personnel, plus Jack Green (vocals) and Gordon Edwards (bass), they signed with Led Zeppelin's Swan Song label for Silk Torpedo.
