Pretenders

Extended Play is an EP released by new wave band Pretenders. “Message of Love” and “Talk of the Town” were included on their second album released later in the year. “Porcelain” and “Cuban Slide”, outtakes from the first album, were included on the 2006 remastered edition of Pretenders, as well as the Pirate Radio boxed set. The live version of “Precious” from Central Park has not been reissued as of 2007.

This EP was released mainly in the US, not in the UK. In the UK the tracks were released as the singles “Message of Love” b/w “Porcelain” and “Talk of the Town” b/w “Cuban Slide”. “Precious” is unique to this release though.
