Blondie is perhaps the most commercially successful band to emerge from the 1970s punk scene. They formed in New York in 1974. The original lineup consisted of Clem Burke (drums), Jimmy Destri (keyboards), Debbie Harry (vocals), Chris Stein (guitar) and Gary Valentine (bass).
Blondie released their first album Blondie in 1976. The album was mildly successful and spawned the Australian hit single “In The Flesh”.
Gary Valentine left the band later that year, and they continued briefly as a foursome, recording Plastic Letters which contained the hit “Denis”.
They added Los Angeles-based musicians Nigel Harrison (bass) and Frank Infante (guitar) in 1977. Harrison was a former member of the glam band Silverhead and Infante had played guitar on Plastic Letters to supplement the foursome’s sound.
In 1978 they released the album that would make them international stars, Parallel Lines. The album spawned several hit singles, including the number one hit “Heart Of Glass”, “Sunday Girl”, “Hanging On The Telephone” and “One Way Or Another”.
They released three more albums (1979’s Eat to the Beat, 1980’s Autoamerican (containing the number one singles “The Tide Is High” and “Rapture”) and 1982’s The Hunter) and a number one single “Call Me” in 1980.
In 1980, Harrison contributed several unused Blondie songs to ex-Silverhead singer Michael Des Barres solo album I’m Only Human.
