Back in time

10 February 2025

CHRISSIE HYNDE (73 now) and her PRETENDERS had
instant success in the UK with their Self-titled Debut LP.

It topped the Charts this day 45 years ago, on 10 February 1980.
It peaked at #9 on the Billboard 200 and was certified platinum, over
the ocean, 2 years later.

Sounds (UK music weekly) said at the time: “Its success, which should
be fairly apparent through the next few months, will be valued not through
hype and wildly enthusiastic pen-happy journalists but through a number
of strong album tracks.”

It featured 3 of their best singles ever.

– STOB YOUR SOBBING –
