PRETTY THINGS - MIDNIGHT TO SIX MAN


Playing the hardest rocking rhythm in blues in the UK during the mid-60's, the Pretties have really been resonating strongly with me these days. What a great band! Can't say enough good stuff about them, and this one is a real favorite in its descriptions of the speed gobbling mod lifestyle.

    The Pretty Things are amazing BUT the most kick arse R'n'B band in England during the mid 60s were The Sorrows

    Great song. Another of my favorite Pretty Things songs is "Come and See Me" - you don't happen to have the original by JJ Jackson? I've always wondered if it was half as wild as the Pretty Things version.
