Chris
Thomas took over on the subsequent recording sessions.
" Pretenders" debuted at number 1 on the UK Albums Chart in the week of its release and stayed there for four consecutive weeks.
It also made the top 10 on the" Billboard" 200 and was certified Platinum during 1982 by the RIAA.
" Pretenders" has been named one of the best albums of all time by VH1(# 52).
In 2003," Rolling Stone" ranked the album number 155 on its list of the 500 greatest albums of all time, maintaining the rating in a 2012 revised list.
In 1989, the magazine ranked it the 20th best album of the 1980s.
In 2012," Slant Magazine" listed the album at# 64 on its" Best Albums of the 1980s".
" Pretenders" was remastered and re-released in 2006 and included a bonus disc of demos, B-sides and live cuts, many previously unreleased.
" Cuban Slide" and" Porcelain" originally appeared as B-sides to" Talk of the Town" and" Message of Love", while" Swinging London" and" Nervous But Shy" both appeared on the flip side of" Brass in Pocket".
The Regents Park demo of" Stop Your Sobbing" was included initially as a flexi-single in the May 1981 edition of" Flexipop" magazine.
The tracks" Message of LoveTalk of the TownPorcelain" and" Cuban Slide" alongside a live version of the album's opening track," Precious", were released on a follow- up EP entitled" Extended Play" soon after.
" Pretenders" was also reissued in 2009 by Audio Fidelity as a limited- edition audiophile gold CD, using the original master tapes.
However, this remaster suffered from unauthorized, heavy limiting supposedly applied" after" engineer Steve Hoffman's digital master was created and approved for CD manufacturing.
The song" The Phone Call" is missing some of the telephone effects on this release because the effects were" flown in" after the master was completed for the song and, as a result, were n't on the original master tape.
There were no bonus tracks included.
A shortened version of" Tequila" would be performed nearly 15 years later on the" Last of the Independents Sabre Dance" features Chrissie Hynde singing portions of" Stop Your Sobbing" over lengthy solos by James Honeyman- Scott and Martin Chambers' insistent drumming, making it a truly unique version.
A cover version of" Brass in Pocket" and the master version of" Precious" are available as downloadable content for" Rock Band".
