Pat Benatar and guitarist-turned-husband Neil Giraldo are currently celebrating 35 years of professional partnership and love by–what else–touring.
“Thirty-five years ago, 'Heartbreaker' was the catalyst for it all. It's hard to believe that so much time has passed,” Benatar said in a news release. “We're excited to be celebrating this personal and musical milestone.”
To coincide with the tour, the duo released a CD/DVD compilation, Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo: The 35th Anniversary Tour, that contains 14 of their biggest hits. You can see them perform live at the Pacific Ampitheatre in Costa Mesa on Aug. 6.
Benatar is ranked as one of the most successful female rock vocalists of all time by Billboard, partially because her powerful pop-rock ballads continue to withstand time. Here is what the rock legend has said about her longevity in the music industry. Quotation above via believermag.com.
