Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Music Deaths: Phil May, Lead Singer of Pretty Things

 PHIL MAY, 75

Died 15 May 2020

Lead singer of the English group Pretty Things.  described as being grungier that the Yardbirds and Rolling Stones.  Also called "The Poor Man's Rolling Stones."  Took name from Willie Dixon song "Pretty Thing."

I'd never heard of them, but if you like 60s-70s music, give these guys a listen on You Tube.

They never had a hit in the United States which was too bad.  Probably sounded more like the Shadows of Knight back in their heyday.

I especially liked "Come See Me."
