Low score for a Pretenders album barely reaching a like and nothing I love. Their first album to not reach Gold status and no singles even hit the chart here. I think I
dropped out after this one. The Pretenders name was used for contractual obligations even though Chrissie is the only original band member on the album with the
supporting cast being session musicians, making it more of a Chrissie Hynde rather than a Pretenders album. One cover with Hendrix's May This Be Love which
Chrissie pulls off ok. Fav is the leadoff and first single but three tracks that bomb for me. AMG didn't even care for this album calling it bland and uninspiring.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM
