Dick Taylor - Fifty Five Years a Pretty Thing
The Pretty Things' Dick Taylor endures the in-depth inquisition that is Marc Riley's Manic Q & A
A founding member of the Rolling Stones, Dick has for the last fifty five years been a lynch pin of the Pretty Things. Covered by David Bowie (twice) and creators of the first ever rock opera, the band play their last ever gig in December with special guests including Van Morrison and David Gilmour.
They also play their last ever Â鶹ÊÓƵAV session for Marc on July 17th - only 54 years after their first.
Before that though Dick tells all about being sent to sleep by a jazz legend and being a fake hippy for Norman Wisdom
