The stuff that now passes as "music", particularly rock 'n roll, leaves me cold. So, to start off the week, here's a video of a classic rock artist.
To start off the week, we have The Pretenders with a song that is familiar to people, especially conservatives, as it was the opening theme song for the Rush Limbaugh Show, "My City Was Gone". It was used with their permission, by the way.
From Wikipedia:
The Pretenders are an English-American rock band formed in March 1978. The original band consisted of founder and main songwriter Chrissie Hynde (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), James Honeyman-Scott (lead guitar, backing vocals, keyboards), Pete Farndon (bass guitar, backing vocals) and Martin Chambers (drums, backing vocals, percussion). Following the deaths of Honeyman-Scott in 1982 and Farndon in 1983, the band experienced numerous personnel changes; Hynde has been the band's only consistent member.
The Pretenders were inducted into the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame in 2005.
