Chrissie Hynde launched the Pretenders with an engaging, yet passive, version of the Kinks Stop Your Sobbing. she unveiled her own persona fully on the pretenders, which contains a series of excellent compositions marked by her sensual vocals and brilliant sense of dynamics. An understanding of pop's structures allowed Hynde to exploit them to her own ends while sympathetic support, particularly that of guitarist James Honeyman-Scott, used the excitement of rock without reference to its cliches. tough and opinionated, chrissie hynde's first declaration of independence established the formula she proceeded to follow.
