I always liked the brassy voice of Chrissie Hynde. Her debut album with The Pretenders came out exactly 40 years ago at this time and it blew me away. Great voice.

I don't expect to see her at any Trump rallies but that's okay. We can agree to disagree on politics with civility. It would be a much better world if we could all do that.

Btw, saw Emma Peels daughter on the show Detectorists. I wasnt watching it just heard it. I kept saying I recognize that voice...who is that....because she sounds so much like her mother.

I can still the friends I was with when we all heard “My City Was Gone” for the first time. We were all dazzled!

I was still in college when the debut album came out, and the record store near campus had the cover displayed on the wall. It stood out... and while I was browsing, they played "Brass in Pocket." I didn't put the cover/band and song together right away but I, too, was blown away.

"The Pretenders" and "Learning to Crawl" were keepers. There was a bunch of good stuff being released at that time.

Sadly the guys on the left and the right both died of drug overdoses.
