S.F. Sorrow is the fourth album by the English rock band Pretty Things. Released in 1968, it is known as one of the first rock operas ever released. Based on a short story by singer Phil May, the album is structured as a song cycle telling the story of a main character "Sebastian F. Sorrow", from his birth, through love, war, tragedy, madness, and his disillusionment with old age. Members of the Who have claimed that S.F. Sorrow did not have an influence on Pete Townshend or his writing of Tommy. The Pretty Things and several critics disagree with The Who.

  • S.F. Sorrow est un album du groupe de rock anglais The Pretty Things, paru en 1968. Il s'agit de l'un des premiers opéras-rock : basé sur une nouvelle écrite par le chanteur Phil May, l'album est structuré comme un cycle de chansons racontant l'histoire de la vie d'un certain Sebastian F. Sorrow qui connaît l'amour, la guerre, la folie et le désenchantement de la vieillesse. L'album est cité dans l'ouvrage de référence de Robert Dimery Les 1001 albums qu'il faut avoir écoutés dans sa vie et dans différentes autres listes. (fr)
  • S.F. Sorrow är ett musikalbum av The Pretty Things som lanserades i december 1968 på EMI Columbia Records. Det var gruppens fjärde studioalbum och anses vara en av de första rockoperorna och konceptalbumen, i konkurrens med Tommy av The Who. Albumet producerades av Norman Smith som bland annat var känd för sitt arbete med Pink Floyds debutalbum The Piper at the Gates of Dawn. Albumet blev inte någon större succé rent kommersiellt. I USA gavs det ut i skymundan på Motowns underetikett för rockmusik, Rare Earth. Skivan hade dessutom i dessa utgåvor ett helt annat omslag än det brittiska. Originalutgåvor av albumet är mycket högt värderade i samlarkretsar. (sv)
  • S. F. Sorrow (рус. С. Ф. Печаль) — четвёртый альбом британской рок-группы The Pretty Things, вышел в 1968 г. Изначально альбом является концептуальным, концепция которого описывает жизнь и страдания выдуманного персонажа под именем Себастьян Ф. Печаль (англ. Sebastian F. Sorrow). Однако несмотря на концептуальность, альбом является также и рок-оперой, написанной, составленной и записанной до релиза рок-оперы «Tommy» группы The Who. (ru)
