No, THC did not go there nor does he have the syndrome. It's the title of Chrissie Hynde's just released first solo album and where she recorded the album with Bjorn Yttling, the Swedish musician and producer with whom she co-wrote the songs. Yttling was four years old when Chrissie founded the Pretenders.
While Stockholm does not have anything to match the early Pretenders classics Middle Of The Road, Talk Of The Town, Brass In Pocket and Night In My Veins, it finds Hynde in fine voice and contains a lot of strong songs.
THC's favorites are Like In The Movies, Down The Wrong Way (featuring the up and coming guitarist Neil Young playing a (TM) Neil Young Guitar Solo), A Plan Too Far and In A Miracle.
Here's a sampler of the songs from the album. Just click on the titles to hear each. Unfortunately, Down The Wrong Way clip does not contain the Young guitar solo.
