The chord sequence thru the chorus is like I am The Walrus when oasis finished their set with it and stretched the outro

I can't stop listening to this! The band is huge, strong, raw. Pete Tolson, what he did on this song is impressive. Skip seems tireless here. It's unfair to mention one person or another here, I think this was one of the most priceless moments in rock and roll.

I know SF Sorrow is badly underrated. Top 5 favorite album from that time period of 68-72 when there were so many great bands. It was overlooked here in America somehow.

Fantastic performance from Phil and the boys. Unlike a lot of hardcore r&b bands the Pretty Thinks slipped quite seamlessly into psychedelia.

I've known Alan Skipper all of my life being 46 years and have the utmost respect for him as being a wonderful man and one of the best drummers in the world. And also a great successful business partner with my Dad back in the day with Massers. Thankyou Skip.👌

A decent performance BUT personally, I would have put the bassist on lead guitar and Dick Taylor on bass. Dick originally started out as a bass player, but his guitar solo here was just so basic and lacking fire. He also couldn't replicate the straight forward riff of In the square, instead just playing one note fills. No wonder they never played this Opus after Pete Tolson passed. Tolson was so good that they really only played Havana Bound from his backlog

Each time I am more amazed by the Pretties. You can feel and see how much they have progressed musically without losing their wildness. Knowing that a guy like Peter Tolson sent a famous band to hell makes my heart warm.
@lazlokovacs226310 ай бұрын
Skip makes that affront, that savagery and just comes back and KEEP PLAYING. That really heavy bass at 2:00 with the drums and organ, absolutely fantastic. Pretties never let me down. Without Beatles and Stones, I'm fine, thank you.

Hard to believe Skip was 19 years old here
@Robert-tv9rq7 ай бұрын
To be exact, Skip was 18 years old, because he was born June 11th, 1948.

Well I have no idea when this was filmed! But thanks for that information, I always wanted to know more about Skip

More entertaining than Iggy Pops peanut butter extravegansa. They just don't make drummers like that anymore. Excellent ++++ . Thank You. was covered by Kim Fowley a year or so later in the USA, but no contest.

Viv was the first, Keith soaked his style in stage side , Carmine Appice, Shreve technically and Bonham sonically and theatre Viv was the nan of the kit IMO . Skip carried the torch higher than all .
