Twink – You Reached For The Stars: The Best Of Twink [VIOLET VINYL]- New LP

Celebrate Twink’s rightful status as a pillar of British psychedelia across this saucer that spans his illustrious career. Featuring iconic songs from the seminal Think Pink album and beyond, this first ever collection was carefully concocted by Twink himself!  Including track-by-track reflections from the artist.

Twink is known largely from his time with The Pretty Things, Pink Fairies and his iconic underground 1970 debut Think Pink. Produced by Mick Farren and featuring members of The Pretty Things, The Deviants, plus Steve Peregrin Took of Tyrannosaurus Rex, Think Pink is a thing of legend. To our delight, Twink’s made a career’s worth of music as wondrous and psychedelic as that rose reckoning.

It’s rare that an icon can remain relevant for decades and have a sound and vision equally as eccentric as his earliest works. Serving as an introduction to the marvelous career of Twink (now Mohammed Abdullah), You Reached For The Stars spans just shy of 50 years and we dare you to retroject and try to identify which is which. These felicitous compositions play cohesively as one album… one that we’re quite proud of.
