Blondie: Eat to the Beat (1979)


Deborah Harry was the object of much adolescent sexual yearnings from all of the boys back in the day. I think part of that appeal was the film American Gigolo, which came out the year after this album, because a Blondie track was used in the soundtrack. Or, the appeal might also have been the result of a rumour that she had been a Playboy Playmate. I never saw the evidence and I have no idea if it is true, but I think she was a waitress in a Playboy club. I think Blondie's music has stood the test of time. It still sounds good to my ears, at any rate. For a while, I had two copies of this record, but I think I got rid of the spare copy.
