  • Description

    THE PRETTY THINGS - THE COMPLETE STUDIO ALBUMS: 1965 - 2020 - THE NEW 13 LP BOX SET.

    Madfish are proud to present, for the first time in one set, the complete studio album recordings of The Pretty Things. From the bands' chaotic beginnings on their self-titled debut in 1965 through to their more reflective latter-day output in 'Bare As Bone, Bright As Blood', this 13-album box set contains it all.



    "The Pretty Things were the biggest influence on us... they invented garage bands" - Joey Ramone.

    "The Pretty Things completely bent my head" - Noel Gallagher

    "The Pretty Things made the Stones look tame" - David Gilmour



    Led by founding vocalist & guitarist Phil May & Dick Taylor, The Pretty Things, iconic 1st wave R&B cult heroes, created some of the most exciting & innovative records of the sixties, early seventies & beyond. Winners of the very first Mojo Hero Award, the band have been a massive success & a huge influence on artists as diverse as David Bowie, Aerosmith, The Ramones, Bob Dylan, The Sex Pistols, The White Stripes, Kasabian & many, many more.



    Invaluable to the development of British music, The Pretty Things have been a critical success who site their outrageous behaviour, incandescent stage performances & astonishing catalogue of remarkable, ground-breaking recordings as fundamental in the creation of their own work. Still recording until the passing of Phil May two years ago, this set follows the bands' journey until those final recordings in 2020.



    All albums have been remastered especially for vinyl with original artwork recreated throughout. Within each album comes an individual, album specific 4-page insert with rare photographs & original single sleeves with words from Mike Stax, Dick Taylor & Mark St. John. Fans will also find an exclusive pull-out print of the band in their prime. All this is housed inside a deluxe slipcase style box.



    Limited to 1,000 copies worldwide.
