Our Take

Blondie At The BBC is a tantalizing time capsule of the iconic band's early days, capturing the raw energy and magnetic charisma that launched Debbie Harry and co. into the stratosphere of rock stardom. From the opening track, "Heart of Glass," to the frantic punk anthem "Hanging on the Telephone," this album is a testament to Blondie's unrivaled ability to effortlessly blend pop sensibilities with punk attitude.

The live recordings on this album are a thrilling reminder of Blondie's unmatched stage presence, with Harry's insouciant vocals and the band's tight musicianship shining through each performance. Whether they're ripping through hits like "One Way or Another" or showcasing their versatility on tracks like "Rapture," Blondie At The BBC is a must-have for fans of the band and newcomers alike.

One of the standout moments on the album comes in the form of a cover of The Nerves' "Hanging on the Telephone," a track that exemplifies Blondie's ability to take a well-known song and make it entirely their own. Harry's vocals are dripping with attitude, and the band's propulsive rhythm section drives the song to new heights.

Overall, Blondie At The BBC is a thrilling listen that captures the essence of a band at the peak of their powers. With its infectious energy and undeniable charm, this album is a perfect reminder of why Blondie remains one of the most beloved bands in rock history. So grab your favourite beverage, turn up the volume, and let Blondie transport you back to the glory days of punk rock.
