2000 digitally remastered hits collection that essentially represents Chrissy Hynde's entire musical legacy. While Sire's U.S. collection "The Singles" concisely represents the best from 1980-87 by Chrissie Hynde & Co., this import-only retrospective is sure to be treasured by fans as it contains most of that discs cuts (13 of the 16), plus all of the group's best ever since.
The Pretenders' 1987 collection, The Singles, did a fine job of assembling most of the group's finest tracks up to that point in their career, so after another decade passed, their record company felt it was necessary to compile a more "updated" collection, 2000's Euro-only release Greatest Hits. Although it contains a total of 20 tracks, Greatest Hits ultimately fails to improve over its predecessor, for the simple fact that the early '80s was the Pretenders' artistic and commercial peak, and Greatest Hits contains too much latter-day material. Whereas it would have been a wise move to showcase such oft-overlooked classics as "Tattooed Love Boys", "Mystery Achievement", "Precious", "My City Was Gone", or "Birds of Paradise" (all of which weren't included on The Singles), Greatest Hits includes such not-as-strong selections as "Night in My Veins", "Breakfast in Bed", and "Human" instead. Although there are quite a few gems included ("Brass in Pocket", "Message of Love", "Talk of the Town", "Kid", "Back on the Chain Gang", etc.), Greatest Hits leaves out far too many prime selections to be considered truly definitive.Tracklist:~ Greg Plato, all media guide
