The Pretenders

Middle of the Road - From Learning to Crawl released in 1983. Your moment of Zen: the song refers to Tao Te Ching as "the middle way." The harmonica solo is uncredited, so I did it. Yeah, me, way back in '83 and you're welcome.

…”four dead in Ohio.” She got a job in London with an Architectural firm, but was more interested in music, dating musicians.

Her bio wouldn’t suggest she was well educated or read., but always interested in music.
