1981. In a High School Baskeball Auditorium with Bow Wow Wow and The Red Devils. They tore the frigging roof off. The original line-up standing in front of a solid white massive illuminated backdrop. INSANE! ~

And that guitar solo is pure genius. James, you left us far too early, friend. Rest in peace.

I was smart enough to sneak out of my house and ride my bike to Royal Oak, MI to see the Pretenders in 1981. I was a young guitar player, and James H-S was my hero. Still is. Bless.

Wow, this is what happens when Punk Rockers actually know how to play their instruments!

Jim was great. Saw them in Houston in an old movie theater converted to concert hall. I was amazed

This song plus PRECIOUS are their best songs. I loved this band when they came out. W ent to see them in Toronto around 83 or 84. AMAZING in concert. Chissie was brilliant.

Best song from The Pretenders, by far.Stop starts, pounding drums, slutty lyrics, etc. Fuckin' classic.

I saw the original lineup - 1981 Blossom Music Center in Chrissie's hometown of Akron, Ohio. Martin Chambers was throwing drumsticks at the end of the show and hit Pete Farndon in the head, opening up a gash and causing him to bleed. Don't worry folks, I'm sure Pete didn't feel a thing! |
