Pretty Maids je dánska hard rocková a heavy metalová kapela založená v roku 1981 spevákom Ronniem Atkinsom a gitaristom Kenom Hammerom. Inšpirovaná klasikmi ako Deep Purple a Thin Lizzy si skupina vybudovala výrazné postavenie na medzinárodnej metalovej scéne.
Kompilácia Original Album Classics vyšla v roku 2015 u vydavateľstva Epic a obsahuje na piatich CD celkom 52 skladieb. Sada ponúka ucelený prierez ranou tvorbou kapely, vrátane obľúbených titulov Back to Back, Future World, Lethal Heroes či coververzie Please Don't Leave Me od Johna Sykesa a Phila Lynotta, ktorá skupine zvýšila popularitu. Ide o reprezentatívnu zbierku pre fanúšikov melodického heavy metalu s dôrazom na silné melódie a klasický tvrdý rock.
Na nahrávkach sa podieľali Ronnie Atkins, Ken Hammer, Morten Sandager, Allan Tschicaja, Rene Shades, Michael Fast a Kenn Jackson.
