Description
THE PRETENDERS UK Singles 1979-1981 hails from 2019 and is a SEALED 8 7" singles box set. This year marks the 40th Anniversary since the Pretenders debut single was released and to celebrate we are releasing the band’s first eight 7” singles from their first two albums: “Pretenders” and “Pretenders II” for Black Friday. Featuring the band’s first ever single, and cover of the Kinks classic - “Stop Your Sobbing”, through to their eighth single another Kinks cover - “I Go To Sleep”. Also includes “Brass In Pocket,” “Kid,” “Message Of Love” & “Talk Of The Town”.
Over the years, the Pretenders became a vehicle for guitarist/vocalist Chrissie Hynde's songwriting, yet it was a full-fledged band when it was formed in the late '70s. With their initial records, the group crossed the bridge between punk/new wave and Top 40 pop more than any other band, recording a series of hard, spiky singles that were also melodic and immediately accessible.
