I'll cut your lying tongue out you slanderous cur. Chrissie Hynde is one of the finest songtresses to grace contemporary culture and may well have had a relationship with Ray Davis but would have been very particular who she allowed near her preposterously unkempt and free growing growler piece (imagine how it must have ripened on those leathers a).

Always thought Ray Davis was a bit of a knob truth to tell and hardly a prodigious source of music eh? - bit of a hit now and then but nothing truly world class.
