Product Details

Chrissie Hynde built the Pretenders from the ground up in late-1970s London, channeling American rock and roll instincts through a distinctly British post-punk edge, and the band's run of singles through the mid-80s holds up as one of the tightest in the era. What makes this collection hit differently is the personal cost embedded in it: by the time "Back on the Chain Gang" was recorded, the band had lost both James Honeyman-Scott and Pete Farndon, and that weight is audible.


The CD 1987 compilation album from Pretenders, The Singles, now features the 2018 remasters by Chris Thomas for tracks from the first three albums and brand-new remasters for the singles from Get Close. The 16 track compilation includes all the band's hit singles up until '87 such as Brass in Pocket, Back on the Chain Gang and Don't Get Me Wrong. Also available on 2LP.
