In December 1992 Phil May and Dick Taylor of The Pretty Things, London's raunchiest 60s R&B band, joined forces with members of The Inmates, one of London's and indeed Europe's finest R&B bands, together with Procol Harum's legendary Matthew Fisher, to pay a unique tribute to America's Garage Rock: the result is the ultimate party album!
Giving new life to exciting garage rock classics of the 60s. Covering The Chocolate Watchband, The Standells, The Seeds, Paul Revere & The Raiders and more.

Pretty Things 'n Mates......Garage Rock
author: Alan JohnsonThis is a really good CD and is an example of how Phil Mays voice has matured over the years and what a good live band they are. Its interesting to hear the band playing old stuff live with a lot of enthusiasm......sounds like a lot of fun was had by all during the making of this record.
