PRETENDERS

TWO LPs

Pretenders (self-titled)
1980 LP
Sire Records
SRK 6083
COVER = EXCELLENT; VINYL = EXCELLENT

Learning To Crawl
1984 LP
Sire Records
1-23980
COVER = EXCELLENT; VINYL = VG+*


First and third studio albums by The Pretenders, featuring Chrissy Hynde were one of the best female-fronted bands of the 1980s, and they're still going strong today and with a new album due out soon. Both albums were completely play-tested for the vinyl grades above, *but I have to mention 'Learning To Crawl' played pretty much excellent although it visually appears VG+. On side 2 there is a tiny chip on the edge leaving at least 1/8" inch from the outer start grooves to the main groves of the first song. As long as you are aware of this and don't position your stylus too close to the edge, there will be no problem, with the music being unaffected. Both LPs have the original photo/graphic inner-sleeves as shown.

'Pretenders' is a Columbia House Club Edition First Pressing. 'Learning To Crawl' is an Allied Record Company First Pressing.
