The last album with Pretenders’ original line-up, the band continued the tremendous form of their debut album. Following their debut album, Pretenders released two singles in the UK, TalkOfThe Town and Message Of Love before Pretenders II arrived, with the former reaching #8 and the latter #11 in the UK singles charts. The appetite in the US maintained too, with Pretenders releasing an EP in the interim named “Extended Play”, containing five tracks that would later be on the Pretenders II album. With a clamouring for more Pretenders material, Pretenders II was released on 15thAugust 1981 to great fanfare. The album would end up peaking #7 in the UK, and #10 in the US, being certified Silver and Gold respectively in the process.

Such is the magnitude of originality, creativity, and nerve the band captured on a record that captivated each side of the Atlantic and both upended and advanced tradition. The no-nonsense set also announced the arrival of the inimitable Chrissie Hynde. Cited the 155th Greatest Album of All Time by Rolling Stone, Pretenders remains as contemporary now as it did 30-odd years ago. Schooled in the era's raw, unfiltered English punk yet equally versed in rockabilly, new-wave pop, and British Invasion rock, songs overflow with keen hooks, sexual swagger, and ear-catching melodies. Courtesy of the spiked rhythms and leather-tough cool, Pretenders moves fast, Hynde's assertive deliveries and take-notice lyrics jolting the senses with a lethal mix of sophistication, toughness, tenderness, rebelliousness, and romance. Mastered from the original master tapes, Mobile Fidelity's numbered limited-edition SACD of Pretenders grants the influential music newfound clarity, punch, dynamics, and perspective that enhance the realism and attack of everything from Hynde's vocal snarl to the band's myriad textures. Originally recorded live in the studio at high volume levels by producer Chris Thomas, the record now boasts added extension, sharper imaging, multi-dimensional soundstaging, and a crispness that practically places The Pretenders on a small stage in your room. Replete with detail and nuance-particularly, Hynde's singing and guitarist James Honeyman-Scott's terrific playing-this is a record that rewards the kind of repeat listening and full-bloom playback afforded by this nonpareil edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\t\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 1 - Precious\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 2 - The Phone Call\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 3 - Up the Neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 4 - Tattooed Love Boys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 5 - Space Invader\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 6 - The Wait\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 7 - Stop Your Sobbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 8 - Kid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 9 - Private Life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 10 - Brass in Pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 11 - Lovers of Today\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisc 1, Track: 12 - Mystery Achievement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Pretenders","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45058837545188,"sku":"MOFY372.1","price":50.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/9587\/8628\/files\/2987716.jpg?v=1756116409"},{"product_id":"learning-to-crawl-40th-anniversary-edition-pretenders-lp","title":"Learning To Crawl (40Th Anniversary Edition), Pretenders, LP","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"description\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eLearning To Crawl (40th Anniversary Edition) [2018 Remaster] - Celebrating the album's 40th anniversary, this reissue is true to the original 1984 release with the artwork and tracklisting remaining the same.
