Yes, PARACHUTE was Rolling Stone magazine's 1970 "Album of the Year," and after 30+ years, you can still hear why. Brilliant playing, great songs, excellent production, real weight... this LP holds up in a way few hard rock LPs do. This is an essential purchase for those who like classic British rock. The Pretties managed not only to skillfully synthesize some of the most important musical elements of the time, but also became an important influence in their own rite. The recipe for Parachute includes a generous helping of Abbey Road era Beatles, Moody Blues, Crosby Stills and Nash, and King Crimson. However, the Pretties create this blend within a framework entirely their own which in some ways works better than efforts put forth by the record's sources of inspiration. Moreover, one can distinctly hear elements that would later show up on some of the most important albums of the 70's. I have little doubt that David Bowie was well familiar with Parachute before cutting Ziggy Stardust, or that the boys in Pink Floyd wore down the grooves of at least one copy before making Dark Side of the Moon. Tracks include: Scene One -. Good Mr. Square -. She Was Tall, She Was High - In the Square -. Letter - Rain - Miss Fay Regrets - Cries from the Midnight Circus - . Grass - .

Have you ever lamented the loss of one of the 20th Century's great art forms, the 12" vinyl LP jacket? Then "mini-LP-sleeve" CD's may be for you. Mini-sleeve CDs are manufactured in Japan under license. The disc is packaged inside a 135MM X 135MM cardboard precision-miniature replica of the original classic vinyl-LP album. Also, anything contained in the original LP, such as gatefolds, booklets, lyric sheets, posters, printed LP sleeves, stickers, embosses, special LP cover paper/inks/textures and/or die cuts, are precisely replicated and included. An English-language lyric sheet is always included, even if the original LP did not have printed lyrics. Then, there's the sonic quality: Mini-sleeves have dedicated remastering (20-Bit, 24-Bit, DSD, K2/K2HD, and/or HDCD), and can often be superior to the audio on the same title anywhere else in the world. There also may be bonus tracks unavailable elsewhere. Each Japan mini-sleeve has an "obi" ("oh-bee"), a removable Japan-language promotional strip. The obi lists the Japan street date of that particular release, the catalog number, the mastering info, and often the original album's release date. Bonus tracks are only listed on the obi, maintaining the integrity of the original LP artwork. The obi's are collectable, and should not be discarded. All mini-sleeve releases are tremendously limited editions mainly pressed on future orders only and once released immediately out of print. This fact along with other latter features we've mentioned make these titles rare collectibles that sell in the collectors markets for $100's of dollars apiece. Japanese digitally re-mastered Mini LP replica Limited Edition Collection with OBI sash down the front – only 2,000 Collector pieces made world-wide and are immediately Out of Print. Recorded from the finest Original Masters available. Comes with anti-static sleeves similar to Vinyl LPs, Cardboard packaging like an LP. Actual miniaturized version of the 12” LP in 4” CD version.

SORROW, the Pretty Things lost two of their members--drummer Twink (who went on to join the Pink Fairies) and, more significantly, founder/guitarist Dick Taylor. Remarkably, though, the remaining members, now light years away from their blues-rock beginnings, pressed on in relatively undaunted fashion with PARACHUTE, another bold Beatle-esque outing. Vocalist Phil May and multi-instrumentalist Wally Allen emerged as the British band's driving force, writing eclectic tunes such as the revved-up "Miss Fay Regrets," the melancholy "Grass," and the psychedelic sing-along "She Was Tall, She Was High." Although critically lauded, the record failed to bring the Pretty Things to a wider audience, essentially sealing the ensemble's fate as a perpetually underappreciated act. While the band would record a few more albums during the 1970s in various incarnations, PARACHUTE is, in many ways, its swan song and deserves to be held in high regard along with S.F. SORROW. Japanese limited edition in an LP-style slipcase.
