 The 1965 Sorrows was the hardest, most aggressive "Freakbeat"

 SEALED...sometimes hard to find (exact) 2nd-press to the (long time super collectible $$$) 1965 beat-boom rave-up monster that failed to take over the entire 60's 'beat-rock' scene as it should have...intense energy abounds!  

One of the most overlooked bands of the British Invasion, the Sorrows offered a tough brand of R&B-infused rock that recalled The Pretty Things (though not as R&B-oriented) and The Kinks (though not as pop-oriented).

The SORROWS are considered perhaps to be the archetypal "Freakbeat band". They were formed in 1963 in Coventry, England by Pip Whitcher. They released their first album "Take a Heart" in 1965 on the Piccadilly Records label which was a subsidiary of Pye Records. The Sorrows were at the time the hardest, most aggressive and contemporary R&B band of that time, although later this brand of music was eventually termed "Freakbeat". The Sorrows were so edgy and raw they simply made The Rolling Stones seem like easy listening music. Their hallmarks are boomy, raucous vocals, lightning fast guitar solos and frantic thudding drums. The musicianship is excellent yet the band failed to achieve too much success probably due to the fact that their brand of proto-punk rock and roll was simply too ahead of its time.
