Chrissie Hynde! An old school rocker. Sexy voice too. ;)

Early years
Hynde, originally from Akron, Ohio, attended Kent State University at the time of the Kent State shootings in 1970. She moved to London in 1973, working at the weekly music paper NME[1] and at Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood's music store. She was involved with early versions of The Clash and The Damned and in short-lived bands such as Masters of the Backside and The Moors Murderers.[2] The Pretenders formed during 1978 after Dave Hill at Anchor Records heard some demos. He arranged a rehearsal studio in Denmark Street and the 3 piece consisting of Hynde, Mal Hart, on bass, who had played with Hynde and Steve Strange in The Moors Murderers and Phil Taylor[3] from Motörhead filling in on drums played a selection of Hyndes` original songs. Dave Hill was impressed and arranged a day at Studio 51 to record another demo. Although it was rough, he felt he had seen and heard enough "star potential" to suggest she form a more permanent regular band to record for his new label, Real Records.[1] Hynde formed a band composed of Pete Farndon (who was later associated romantically with Hynde) on bass, James Honeyman-Scott on guitar, and Gerry Mcilduff on drums. This band, without a name at this stage, recorded five tracks at Regents Park Studio in July 1978, including "Stop Your Sobbing". Gerry Mcilduff was replaced on drums by Martin Chambers, and Hynde named the band "Pretenders" after The Platters song "The Great Pretender".[4]

And Chrissie covering Creep from Radiohead, of all things. Great!

Yeah, I know. We have talked about Cowboy Bebop before in this thread. But due to a crappy search engine, I can't tell if this was ever posted. And it needs to be.

The story line is a bounty hunter (aka cowboy) on mars. But the style is completely 60's mod/bond. The top youtube review says, "Cowboy Bebop is just such a stylish, sexy, and badass anime it's like James Bond if he was a bounty hunter in Space lol. It's just one of those animes you don't have to be an anime fan to enjoy."

That's burying the lead.

The soundtrack is SMOKIN'

Here is the opening sequence. You should crank the volume on this recording. But DAMN! The horns are HOT!

And the whole video is damn COOL!

Two songs here.

That second song is from a German Industrial Dance band. Deutschland is producing some of the best Trans, Techno and Industrial bands that I have heard. For you old timers: Does anyone remember Kraftwerk?

Some movie songs. Both get you going. The second one is a little popcorny and the intro is a waist. Forward to 31 seconds.
