These sessions were primarily created as incidental music for film soundtracks and were released under the DeWolfe Sound Library label. The band's story began in 1967, when a down-on-their-luck Pretty Things took a job working for the music library firm De Wolfe tracking songs for potential use as incidental music in swinging '60s films, working with the Reg Tilsley orchestra...
