The legendary 1st wave R&B cult heroes’ final electric performance recorded at the O2 Indigo London in December 2018 featuring special guests David Gilmour and Van Morrison. Celebrating 55 years of the greatest band most people have never heard of, ‘The Final Bow’ captures The Pretty Things at their rocking and unique, mercurial best across 3 sets of classic tracks featuring special guest appearances from good friends David Gilmour and Van Morrison. This 2LP set features a selection of the evening’s live recordings. Artwork features photography from Judy Totton and liner notes are written by Phil May of his life as the frontman of the ballsy and successful rock band. The audio was recorded by Ben McCusker, mastered by Gwyn Mathias and produced by Mark St. John. Invaluable to the development of British music, The Pretty Things have been a critical success and a huge influence on artists as diverse as David Bowie, Aerosmith, The Ramones, Bob Dylan, The Sex Pistols, The White Stripes, Kasabian and many, many more - who cite their outrageous behaviour, incandescent stage performances and astonishing catalogue of remarkable, ground-breaking recordings as fundamental in the creation of their own work. Still creating significant music today and with a rich catalogue including top-level albums such as ‘Get the Picture ?’, ‘S.F. Sorrow’ & ‘Parachute’, they remain a hugely important artistic and creative force.
