  • Overall:

    Solid Effort

    By Brian  Apr 22, 2003

    "Packed!" seems to be overlooked by most Pretenders purists. I'll admit it doesn't have the punch of their earlier releases, but it's still very enjoyable. "Downtown"(Akron) kicks out the jams while Crissy whispers her way through several softer song...s. Not the best - but don't overlook it if you're in the mood for some good tunes. Rock on guys!

Pro Reviews: Packed!

  • All Music Guide

    It may be true that Chrissie Hynde's songs on Packed are the weakest in her career, but they are not the sole reason why the album is such a bland, uninspiring affair. In the hands of producer Mitchell Froom, Hynde's stylistic retreads become even more unfocused and lackluster. Froom's production lacks any edge, making the pleasant but pedestrian songs bland and featureless. Only a cover of Hendrix's "May This Be Love" and "When Will I See You," a collaboration with guitarist Johnny Marr, stand out admist the number of undistinguished tracks on Packed.

Biography

The Pretenders

Over the years, the Pretenders became a vehicle for guitarist/vocalist Chrissie Hynde's songwriting, yet it was a full-fledged band when it was formed in the late '70s. With their initial records, the group crossed the bridge between punk/new wave and Top 40 pop more than any other band, recording a series of hard, spiky singles that were also melodic and immediately ac... Read more
