Rolling back the years to their early new wave 80s heyday, a fabulously strong 12th album by Chrissie Hynde and co, packed with strong songwriting, her powerful vocal presence and a top-notch songwriting partnership with the versatile guitarist James Walbourne. Their interplay is particularly strong on tracks such as A Love, but there are many standouts here, including the vulnerability on I Think About You Daily (featuring a great with string arrangement by Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood), Let The Sun Come In, and Losing My Sense of Taste, and the divorcee song Merry Widow among other highlights. After an outstanding Glastonbury set, this album proves the veterans are as good as ever. Out on Parlophone.
