    Robbie (who was also mccartneys guitar player) is a powerhouse on this album

      Good pressing of my favorite album from the Pretender. Middle of the Road, Back on the Chain Gang, My City has Gone, Show Me, Thai Line Between Love and Hate, and 2000 Miles all brings back good ‘80 music memories.

        $8 NM and it sounds well worth it! Very great sounding pressing from a great album overall!

          My favorite Pretenders album! Just so good from front to back. The sound on this particular press is excellent as well. You can usually find a copy for cheap.

            Pressing sounds pretty great overall (I have a NM copy) however there is some sibilance on inner tracks. I recently A/B's this to the Mofi and the Mofi has better separation and clarity, with a much more defined bottom end. For a budget copy though, most people are going to be pretty happy with this one.

              This is an excellent pressing. Well worth $5 if you can get it for that.
