https://youtu.be/lnPTS9PnB9I I do not know how to embed the video. Thought some of you might enjoy. She was a perfect female rock and roller. Great voice for it imho. "Practice like you want to play in the game" | ||

She was my favorite back in the day. Won the Grammy four years in a row. I have all of her albums and saw her in concert 5 times over the years. She's one of a kind. | |||

Yes, I remember her videos on MTV in the 80's. "If Gun Control worked, Chicago would look like Mayberry, not Thunderdome" - Cam Edwards | |||

I was in shipyard in Jacksonville FL back in the early 90's and she gave a free concert at the Jaguars stadium. She was great! The only problem was we all got soaked by a rain storm.

They're coming to town in August. Was going to take the Mrs, but she'd kill me if she knew I spent $600 on tix. Geez live entertainment keeps going up. | |||

The first thing that I thought of was the Led Zeppelin tune Heartbreaker. "But, as luck would have it, he stood up. He caught that chunk of lead."

I'll admit I loved The Pretenders when they came out in early 1980 and just merely liked Benatar, but she sure had a voice made for rock, while Chrissie Hynde had a sweeter saccharine voice over a punkish rock sound (Karen Carpenter was a primary influence). But Benatar had a good number of hits in the 80s, she did take advantage of MTV at the time.
Yes, his guitar work was great on those songs. "I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines; I mean, because they have too much to lose by printing the truth"- Bob Dylan, 1965 | |||

Thanks bigwagon, I was trying to figure that out when I posted. I have a lot on my mind right now  "Practice like you want to play in the game" | |||

I was lucky enough to see her perform in a tiny venue, a county park, some time in the nineties. Not only was it free, but we were about three rows deep from the stage, with maybe three rows behind us. Wifey was a huge fan, me not so much until that concert, she really rocked it! | |||

There are a few female Rock singers that actually sing Rock. She is amongst the best of them. First In Last Out | |||

I also much prefered The Pretenders back in the 80's but saw Pat and her husband Neil in a small venue about 10 years ago. It was a great show, nice to see a long lasting marriage in show biz. | |||

Got to see her at a small venue in 1997 - great show. One of my favorite CDs from her was True Love, in a blues style from the 1940's. If you like swing/blues and haven't heard it, I'd recommend. | |||
|
| Jodel-Time |
I second that recommendation. It's a fantastic album and a great swap of genres that showcases her talents. | |||
