Pretenders

In the live recording of "Middle Of The Road" from November 30, 2008, we catch a vibrant glimpse of The Pretenders during a thrilling period in their career. This performance came just after the release of their album "Break Up the Concrete" in 2008, which marked a significant return to their rock roots. The band, led by the iconic Chrissie Hynde, showcased an energetic and mature sound that resonated well with both long-time fans and newer audiences. Interestingly, this album was the first collaboration with their new record label, and it was produced in a way that embraced a raw, organic feel—much like the band’s earlier works. The live energy in the performance reflects their enduring passion, making it a poignant moment encapsulating the essence of The Pretenders' legacy.
