Dick Taylor of the Rollin' Stones & the Pretty Things
Episode 53
Thursday, 19 April, 2018

Dick Taylor started his career with school friends Mick Jagger and Keith Richards in a group they called the Rollin' Stones but left before they cut their first album to return to art school. The next year, Dick and Phil May started the Pretty Things with whom he stayed until 1969 after the release of the now critically acclaimed but initially failed rock opera "S.F. Sorrow". Taylor went on to produce, most notably the debut album of Hawkwind in 1970, before returning to the Pretty Things in 1979. He remains with the group today. The Pretty Things recently announced that they would be retiring from playing electric shows by the end of 2018.
