Madfish

ristampa il debutto omonimo di

The Pretty Things

per il suo 60º anniversario

insieme a

“Live At The 100 Club”

in uscita il 1 agosto

su doppio vinile giallo e rosso
 

Per celebrare i sei decenni trascorsi dal loro debutto incendiario, questo doppio LP riunisce due istantanee distinte ma complementari della potenza grezza e diretta di The Pretty Things.

Il primo disco presenta il loro debutto omonimo del 1965 – urgente, spavaldo e senza fronzoli – un album concreto che ha catturato la band così com’era: tagliente, determinata e in anticipo sul loro tempo. Dal ritmo incalzante di “Road Runner” al fascino struggente di “13 Chester Street”, è qui che la band ha forgiato la sua reputazione.
Il secondo LP ci porta nel cuore di Londra, nel 2010: The 100 Club. Ancora carica, ancora senza compromessi, la band si è scatenata in un set in equilibrio tra riverenza e ribellione. Live At The 100 Club è un’istantanea che ci mostra The Pretty Things ancora completamente a proprio agio con lo spirito e il sound che hanno contribuito a definire, con i membri originali Phil May e Dick Taylor a guidare la carica.

“Although the Pretty Things did not achieve the fame of many of their peers in the UK rock scene, they were beloved by musicians, including Aerosmith and, most famously, David Bowie” – Pitchfork
 
“May’s yowling vocals, were as ferociously potent as anything recorded during the 1960s British beat boom.” – The Times
 
“The man David Bowie listed as God in his address book stuck two fingers up at rules about music, sex and life itself – and made the most glorious noise doing it” – The Guardian
 
“Mr. May’s snarling vocals and rebellious persona helped make his band, the Pretty Things, an influential part of the 1960s British scene.” – The New York Times

The Pretty Things + Live At The 100 Club (60th Anniversary 2LP) usciranno per Madfish il 1 agosto 2025   Preordina QUI
