New Vinyl Record - Pretenders - Pretenders

MFLS, MOFI

One of the Most Essential Debuts Ever Released: No-Nonsense 1980 Set Ranked 155th Greatest Album of All Time by Rolling Stone Mastered from the Original Master Tapes: Added Extension, Sharper Imaging, Multi-Dimensional Soundstaging Practically Place The Pretenders Onstage in Your Room Pretenders Entices With Biting Hooks, Soulful Melodies, Guitar-Charged Toughness, and Chrissie Hynde's Inimitable Mix of Toughness and Tenderness: Includes 'Brass In Pocket,' 'Precious,' and 'Tattooed Love Boys' The milieu The Pretenders create on their self-titled debut didn't exist when the album came out in early 1980. 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.

A challenging read
Every now and then I challenge myself with a classic. This one was definitely that - a challenge. Allow me to explain. First, this is the story of King Arthur. All the characters are present: Gweniviere, Lancelot, Merlin, the Knights of the Round Table, the sword in the stone, Mordred, and all the ones I’d ever heard of in retellings-of the story. However, many were not as good, bad, beautiful, handsome, or courageous and pure of heart as I’d been led to imagine. These characters were messy and deep with honor and dishonor battling within them. But there was a quiet strength and desire to do good about them. So, this book challenged my preconceived images of these characters. Second, this book is long. It is divided into four parts. The first two parts were more familiar (maybe) and were a little easier to read. They told of Arthur’s early education under Merlin, pulling the sword from the stone, and establishing the Round Table - the glory days. Part three tackles the love triangle between Arthur, a Gwen, and Lancelot; the quest for the Holy Grail; and the rise of Mordred. Part four got a little tedious describing the fall of Arthur’s reign, the destructive force of lies and secrets, and the power of evil. This section challenged me with some very deep theological and philosophical musings amid the battles among friends and family. Finally, this book is written using a Middle English wordings and geographic dialect. I had to look up many words (not all definitions could be found) to really understand some things, but was generally able to follow the story. The author also frequently talked directly to the reader which took some getting used to. The writing style definitely challenged my vocabulary and ability to follow transitions from author speaking to characters. One last thing, the ending was left somewhat open to interpretation and imagination. I choose to believe the happiest of the possible outcomes. I’m glad I read this book, but i think I’ll go read something a little easier next!

Freshest breathe
I recently purchased a stainless steel tongue cleaner, and I am pleased to report that it is a great product. The cleaner is made of high-quality stainless steel, which is extremely durable and will not corrode over time. It is also easy to use and clean, as the cleaning part is made of a smooth and rounded end that fits comfortably in my mouth. The cleaner is also very effective at removing bacteria and food particles from my tongue. After using the cleaner for a few days, I noticed that my breath had improved significantly and that my taste buds were more sensitive. I was also surprised to find that the cleaner was gentle enough to use on an everyday basis without causing any irritation. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an effective and affordable tongue cleaner. Not only is the stainless steel cleaner effective and easy to use, but it also lasts longer than other tongue cleaners on the market. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for an effective and reliable tongue cleaner.

Exactly what I needed
These are solid and work really well. They’ve held up perfectly and as long as I don’t lose them I can’t imagine them wearing out for a really long time.
