Εαν στα ανωτέρω προσθέσετε και τα καινούργια των "Danny & Dusty" και το καινούργιο του Cave µε τους "Grinderman" (οι µισοί Bad Seeds !) - καθώς και τις επανεκδόσεις παλαιού υλικού - θα συµφωνήσετε ότι η φετινή χρονιά (έτσι όπως δείχνει µέχρι τώρα) θα µας αφήσει µια πολύ καλή Rock and Roll παρακαταθήκη. Υπάρχουν και άλλες αξιόλογες κυκλοφορίες (π.χ η Patti Smith σε δίσκο µε διασκευές , το 12) αλλά χρειάζεται χρόνος για περαιτέρω µελέτη.

ΟΜΩΣ Ο ROCK ∆ΙΣΚΟΣ ΤΗΣ ΧΡΟΝΙΑΣ, ΤΩΝ "PRETTY THINGS - ΒALBOA ΙSLAND" ΑΡΓΕΙ ΝΑ ΚΥΚΛΟΦΟΡΗΣΕΙ (ΑΝΑΜΕΝΕΤΑΙ ΤΕΛΙΚΑ ΣΤΙΣ 14 ΑΥΓΟΥΣΤΟΥ ΤΟΥ 2007, ΕΝΩ ΑΡΧΙΚΑ ΠΕΡΙΜΕΝΑΜΕ ΝΑ ΒΓΕΙ ΤΗΝ 1Η ΜΑΙΟΥ ) - ∆ΕΙΤΕ ΑΚΟΛΟΥΘΩΣ ΣΧΕΤΙΚΗ ΑΝΑΚΟΙΝΩΣΗ ΤΗΣ ∆ΙΣΚΟΓΡΑΦΙΚΗΣ ΕΤΑΙΡΕΙΑΣ (DΕΝ ΜΠΟΡΩ ΝΑ ΠΕΡΙΜΕΝΩ ΑΛΛΟ - Η ΑΝΑΜΟΝΗ ΜΟΥ ΕΧΕΙ ΣΠΑΣΕΙ ΤΑ ΝΕΥΡΑ !!).

ZOHO Music L.L.C. and Cote Basque Productions,U.K., are pleased to announce the upcoming release of The Pretty Things' new CD "Balboa Island" on the ZOHO ROOTS label!

ZOHO ROOTS will release "Balboa Island" in North America and the Caribbean through its distributor Allegro Corporation, Portland, OR. Confirmed street date is August 14, 2007.

"Balboa Island" is the legendary British Rock group The Pretty Things' long awaited 11th studio album in a 43-year recording career. Their first CD release in over eight years, it is already regarded by many as on par with their very greatest 1960s and 70s recordings.

From the stadium-sized Rock of "All Light Up" through the raw acoustic guitar blues of "Feel Like Going Home" to the Beatles / Abbey Road period style of "Dearly Beloved" - The Pretty Things have crafted a "dark" record - doomed, brooding, powerful, mysterious and full of edge.

The 13 new songs - mostly originals, but also containing an acoustic cover of an early Bob Dylan song "The Ballad of Hollis Brown" - have a rawness, intensity, depth and passion which is unmatched by any of their contemporaries: The Stones, Van, The Who - none of the class of 64 has enough gas left in the tank to make a record like this.

Founded in 1964 by lead vocalist Phil May and lead guitarist Dick Taylor - who was the Rolling Stones' original bass guitarist prior to starting the Pretty Things - "the Pretties" have always followed their own, fiercely independent path : although the huge international break-through of the Rolling Stones, the Who has eluded them, their un-compromising musical integrity has given them a cult following around the world.

The first 5,000 copies of the North American, ZOHO ROOTS label release of the CD includes original full-sized artwork by lead vocalist Phil May, making this first edition an instant must-have collectors' item for the group's many fans!

Long Live !! / ΝΠ
