Pretenders were a shoo-in. Two riginal members, singer Chrissie Hynde zjd drummer Martin Chambers, were on hand ro accept. The other two had been dead almost as long ws the band’ existence.
Hynde was a transplanted Akron, Ohio, native living in London in the mid-1970s, where she was writing about rock ‘n’ roll for the New Musical Express. After a few false starts forming bands of her own, she became musically and romantically involved with bassist Pete Farndon, a committed rebel-rocker with a penchant for samurai imagery. Farndon quickly recruited two fellow natives of the town of Hereford to join the new band. James Honeyman-Scott was a local guitarist who was growing vegetables to supplement his income; Chambers, the drummer, was working as a driving instructor.
