Parachute 3 reviews The Pretty Things
Repertoire, 2002
The Pretty Things: Greatest, and most underrated, band in the world!!!
+ Better than S.F. Sorrow? + what a surprise !
Parachute
For ages I've been a very ardent fan of The Pretty Things' work up until 1968's "S.F. Sorrow" magnum opus.
An impressive body of work, enviable by any major Sixties band and easily the equal of the finest records by more hyped bands such as The Stones, The Beatles and just about any ...

Discipline Us, 2004
How did this one slip by me?
+ first and best + IN THE COURT OF THE CRIMSON KING
While soaking in "Children of Men", I heard the long forgotten "Court of the Crimson King" used throughout the soundtrack for the film. On a whim, I jumped online and purchased this album...and I was blown away. It's an album that would stand out even now if it were released tomorrow. From ...

Nicely Out of Tune 2 reviews Lindisfarne
Caroline, 2004
Nicely out of Mott
+ Outstanding Debut Album!
Newcastle upon Tyne, England, over the years has given us some of the greats of the rock world, 'The Animals', 'The Police', and 'Geordie' to name but a few (well, perhaps Geordie weren't as great, but they did give us Brian Johnston, lead singer with AC/DC today). None of these bands were greater ...
