Thank you ladies for the kind words in the Blondie thread . Blondie became known as a mainstream band but the were cutting edge when they started, you had to be cool to be on a bill with Iggy?Bowie in 76.

There music was influenced by sixties girl group(an underrated genre)surf music and sixties garage. They rejected hippie music, singer songwriter crap and prog rock-all that was stinking up the seventies.
