Pictures for Pleasure, released in 1985, is the first studio album released by singer/guitarist Charlie Sexton.
The album was the first solo effort by the 16-year old musician who had already secured a reputation as a skilled guitarist.
Pictures for Pleasure can best be described as a combination between Sexton's blues rock roots and the more commercially acceptable new wave genre. The album produced one top-20 hit with the single Beat's So Lonely.
