If the Pretenders don't get you moving, you don't have a pulse. Chrissie continues to be a wonderful artist and so interesting to hear during interviews. She and Martin Chambers are truly rock-n-roll legends. Her bass player and lead guitarist are excellent too. 👍👍👍👍👍
At the time of this concert this beautiful lady was 66 years old she is truly amazing and what a voice. What a career so many fantastic songs and still working hard a new album and tour announced for 2024. Love you Chrissie.
The Pretenders were probably the most exciting band to come along at the tail end of the 70s ( 1979). Great music from the start although the band was beset by tragedy, they continued with drummer Martin Chambers joining Chrissie Hynde as the two original members. The band is in top form at Austin City Limits, the best music show in the history of television.

She’s from Akron, Ohio as are Devo! She worked as a waitress and was a fan of the British Invasion. So somehow she decides to pursue a career as a singer and songwriter and moves to London! I don’t know where she got the gumption to do it but she had the incredible voice which made it all possible. Plus she wrote good songs that fit her vocals perfectly. The rest is history after she put together the Pretenders and their brilliant debut album riding the Punk New Wave explosion that occurred in the late Seventies. The result was a hit album and headlined tours. Then Two original members died. She carriered on. And wrote more hits and kept going! The rest is history! HOF for sure!
Wow, good job Chrissie for staying alive, love you and your tunes a lot. You got some good pipes. Very cool you got Martin playing drums. So sorry for your loss of the the band members early on. Your band mates here on bass and guitar, fantastic. Love the classic Pretenders songs. And I apologize for for hollering vulgar language at the Twin Cities show back in the 80's, I was a little high. Take care and rock on!
1980. That first album was so so important to me, my friends, my life. They took a big mis-step by releasing the EP BEFORE the second album. Talk of the Town was one of the gems , but because it was on the EP first , it took some of the lustre off LP number 2. By the time the 3rd LP came out - they lost me.
I've had a 20 year crush on Chrissy since I first saw her. Maybe some day I'll tell her. Her magnificent voice hasn't changed a bit. She used to wear this black hat with glitter on it when she really got in the mood. I think I'd ask her to keep it on.
Then the memory of that Ax. , it was beautiful. As the drummer solo ‘ d He don’t pretend. >. He rocked right in the middle of road Come on baby. LoL Some performers A. R. E Unforgettable!
CHRISSIE HYNDE= U.S.A. ROYALTY FAN SINCE DAY 1# GREAT SONG WRITER!! READ HER BOOK📖 RECKLESS I SAW THE BAND AT THE MAYO IN JERSEY ON 4-2-2018.SHE EVEN SIGNED MY BOOK😃
You know, when she says balsam is the best rock drummer, one is inclined to think she was being serious. No one drummer is, but he really is incredibly good. It may be that he is consistently this impressive which makes gigging so much easier for a band. It's just a shame that every band isn't this tight playing live.
No se si vayas a traducir esto, fui a tu pagina y que encontre, eres la verdura en caldo (Es groseria alabandote) Buenas bandas,valio la pena encontrarte, gracias,.Saludos
For me it was always Chrissie talking about love and showing no positive facial or any emotion at all. Chrissie laughing is out of character. She can perform how she likes of course. She was always about aloofness and distain. But I did like the video.
if the drummer just could at least try to do the original drum pattern to start message of love please , playing the tom pattern straight is not how it went !

Her autobiography, "Reckless" is a good read. I recommend it.
She's on backup vocals on Chris Speddings Hurt album 1977!
James is an amazing guitar player..!!!
James Walbourne is amazing! what a sound and play the perfect parts!!

The Pretender's are definately Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees..
1983 favorite band. Drew the name on my notebooks when I was in school.
I saw them at the Pinkpop Festival in June of ‘84. Had just turned 18. Great show, great memories!
I've had a 20 year crush on Chrissy since I first saw her. Maybe some day I'll tell her. Her magnificent voice hasn't changed a bit. She used to wear this black hat with glitter on it when she really got in the mood. I think I'd ask her to keep it on.
I have a crush on her too, and for longer that you, man
Does that mean I win?? LOL
World=class front woman and guitarist, holy smokes

Eye watering rock n’ roll bliss…
Saw them in London 1981. This is like the Stones if the Stones were still them.
Such a voice.
WOW!

God Damn I love Chrissie.

Ahh yes…Martin Balsam on drums. Incredible!
Maybe Martin Chambers?
@@jublaim Yes...exactly. Martin Balsam was an Academy Award-winning character actor who died over 30 years ago!
😂😂😂 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I agree to disagree for Blonde fuc&%_^/ing blows...
THE END 😂
O My Goodness
Ma quanto sei bbona! 😍 Sophia Loren versione rock 🤘

I never understood why chrissy hind insisted on having her bangs cover those beautiful eyes. Read her book, very eye opening!!!
It adds a bit of mystery.
My favorite is the second album. They don't play that dark stuff no more
"Chrissy Hynde is still HOT!!" "Aloha from Hawai"i!!"
♥️
Pretender,singular
Just curious... the drummer seems to be playing behind a plexiglass screen... is there a reason for that ?
Reduces noise on stage. Mainly for the players on the stage.
@@paulwortman483 Thanks for the reply.
I think on a small stage you want to limit interference between instruments. The audio engineer can control the mix more precisely.
In case somebody throws tomatoes or something....
It's called a sound garden.
This magnificent woman. Love her and all those dudes making this exceptional. Glory be.
Hulk Hogan on drums. I like like.
Best
did not know pretenders had this in them cool
Why is the drummer behind glass or plastic?
So he can hear HIS monitor only and also blocks the sound from bass and guitar amps.
Roughly at 42:10 Chrissie being herself. Audience member, "I love you so much!" Chrissie "This is not a time for Love"
I love this band. I'm not Pretending.
Origial drummer makes such a diff.
Tattooed Love Boys, Kid???
Great show, except for the dork at the end!
For me it was always Chrissie talking about love and showing no positive facial or any emotion at all. Chrissie laughing is out of character. She can perform how she likes of course. She was always about aloofness and distain. But I did like the video.
if the drummer just could at least try to do the original drum pattern to start message of love please , playing the tom pattern straight is not how it went !
The sound guy should be fired
they're pretending to be the pretenders.
Dude has horrible guitar tone
I beg to differ
