Chrissie Hynde: Pretend it till you make it

On her birthday week, we’re looking at some photographs of Chrissie Hynde from our archive. From her show with The Pretenders at the London’s Marquee Club in 1979 to her solo portraits with class photographers such as Jill Furmanovsky and Zanna, Hynde looks like rock & roll history in every single one of them.

If you are a fan, do spend a few minutes reading our classic interview with Chrissie Hynde that we have shared online this week to celebrate her birthday.
