CHRISSIE HYNDE, WITHOUT CRUELTY TO ANIMALS

There was the time, in 1975, Blue Oyster Cult was trying to have a peaceful dinner in Paris and this chick walked across the tables and their dinners...

There was the time a reporter, who’d written a not particularly complimentary piece about the Pretenders was summoned (or so he thought) to discuss it and drove all the way from Detroit to Chicago to find the interview was blown off... revenge or simple misunderstanding?

That was nothing compared to the late night TV show host from Boston who was almost reduced to tears...

Everybody has a Chrissie Hynde story. And not all of them are about how difficult she is. But perhaps it’s no surprise that the first single from her fourth album is “Don’t Get Me Wrong.” It’s not so easy to get her right. No sooner did she get the attention she’d demanded for years before “Brass In Pocket” confirmed her talent was very, very special, then she wanted the world to take a hike.
