The Great Pretender

They formed in March 1978 and from the very start pretty much defined the sound and look of new wave. Forty-five years later, The Pretenders remain true to their original spirit, despite the tragic early loss of two founder members, and Chrissie Hynde is still conjuring classic pop songs and embodying the essential sass and strut of rock'n'roll. Pete Paphides interviews her about survival and songwriting, the Sex Pistols and narrowly avoiding jail on the road

THE YEAR IN...POST-PUNK/ NEW WAVE

In 1978, the Sex Pistols were disintegrating, and punk calcifying as literalists like Sham 69 attempted to carry on in its “true”, reductionist spirit, which would eventually degenerate into Oi.

TO 'ELLO, 'ELLO, 'ELLO & BACK

Formerly the biggest band on Planet Earth, The Police split almost 40 years ago. Not long before that, in 1978, they were just a trio of blond hopefuls waiting at the nation's gates with a daring hybrid of punk and reggae which seemed to catch the ear of many of the pre-punk old guard. Stewart Copeland's new book, Police Diaries, in words (his diaries circa 1976-78) and pictures (photos and illustrations), takes us back to those early days of The Police. It is, according to the drummer, \"the fun part of the Police story, the starving years when we didn't have any songs to play just crap punk songs, mostly written by me [some of them on a CD in the Signature edition of the book]. \"These formative years,\" Copeland attests, \"are the interesting part of the Police story, which is why the book focuses on the period of formation and exploration that preceded the stadium tours - it shows how three disparate individuals bonded before figuring out what music to play...\"
