I bought this single back in the day, not sure why, I didn't really like The Pretenders that much and I found Chrissie Hynde a little annoying and....I didn't fancy her.

...but....years later I love this song, love her voice and boy does the young Chrissie make me wanna...

and Pete Farndon look so cool on the bass, albeit off his tits.

    I thought their first album was stunning, just an incredible debut largely thank to the amazing guitar work of James Honeyman Scott. His early death was just tragic.. such a waste. :anguished: 
    Just listen to him on Private Life, his soloing on this is just majestic.

    That is great, I love James playing with the Gibson V and a Fender amp, it sounds like The Smiths. Anyone know what chorus he used? Boss CE2?

    There are a couple of interviews online and he talks about an EHX Clone Theory.

    Much a better/ more interesting band than the singles might suggest. 

    I think it's on Private Lives from the Rockpalast that Chrissie swears at the audience about taking her photo. Seems very dated now.
    Tipton is a small fishing village in the borough of Sandwell.

    It's a great sound, and James is another beneficiary of the anybody-can-have-a-go punk era.

    This is a good interview for those who are interested in the backstory of the band.
