The Pink Fairies emerged from London's vibrant underground scene in 1970, blending proto-punk, hard rock, and psychedelic rock influences. Formed by former members of The Deviants and Pretty Things, they became known for their anarchic spirit and free performances at festivals like Glastonbury. Their debut album, *Never Never Land* (1971), showcased their raw energy, followed by *What a Bunch of Sweeties* (1972), which reached No. 48 on the UK Albums Chart. Despite lineup changes, including the addition of guitarist Larry Wallis, they continued to influence the punk movement with their rebellious ethos and dynamic sound.
