Honeyman-Scott isï»¿ still one of my favorite guitar players. It’s wierd how that all went down – the group kicked Farndon out of the band because he let the rock star stuff get too far and was not “dependable”. Next day – Jimmy was found dead of cocaine OD. Farndon died not long after.

I think that TruthAxe’s use of the highly demeaning term ‘COVER BAND’ is way off base. That’s why I called the comment SILLY. Then he/she names three songs that the ‘authentic’ Pretenders ‘wrote, recorded, and performed’, andï»¿ they were all WRITTEN by Chrissy Hynde. Way to undermine your point, TruthAxe. Most bands change in sound and demeanor as time goes on. Even if Honeyman-Scott and Farndon had survived, the Pretenders likely would sound different now.

slw59 nailed it. This track is proof of the original band’s rawness and volatility. After they lost Farndon and Honeyman-Scott the band became too “middle of the road.” And I love Chrissie, but the band was better with the edge, boldness, and creativity thoseï»¿ two druggies brought to the table.
