Television appearances from throughout the decades capture artists performing for audiences of millions — often in unusual settings, with house bands, on chat shows, or as part of variety specials that seem surreal by modern standards. The rarest TV clips are from regional broadcasts, international shows, and programmes that were never repeated or archived.
The Pretenders are a British rock band formed in March 1978. The original band consisted of founder and main songwriter Chrissie Hynde, James Honeyman-Scott, Pete Farndon, and Martin Chambers. Following the deaths of Honeyman-Scott in 1982 and Farndon in 1983, the band experienced numerous personnel changes; American-born Hynde has been the band's only continuous member.
