In 1970, Twink recorded Think Pink - a milestone in British psychedelia, with the production work of friend Mick Farren, and the active participation of musicians like Paul Rudolph, Steve Peregrin Took (T. Rex) and others, and created a collection of songs, instrumental tracks and poetry that is no less than stunning. For many, a fundamental release for fans of the psychedelic genre and the Pink Fairies, that reflects the genius of Twink.
