Free Music Notes for Greatest Hits (CD+DVD)

Free Music Review: Good Collection, Though It Helped Me Learn I'm Not A Real Blondie Fan.
Hit: 4 Stars

I enjoy female vocalists and bands with female vocalists. I also liked other bands of the Blondie era like Berlin, Missing Persons, the Go Gos and the Bangles. I thought I liked Blondie, but the more I learned, the more I realized I didn't like them as much as the other bands.

Blondie fit the new wave movement. On one side, it was progressive, paving the road for the typical '80's sound. On the other side, it was nostalgic, borrowing from the '50's. Blondie captured both sides.

"Call Me" is one of my favorite songs, and I always enjoyed "Heart Of Glass". Other songs left me cold. Part of the problem was the 50ish sound of those songs, and part is the lyrics. (For example, while I love the sound of the verses and chorus of "Rapture", I despise the silly rap segment.)

There is a DVD, and that is good nostalgia, but they didn't do much for me. It was not as developed as most MTV videos.

Greatest Hits (CD+DVD) Poster

Blondie defies definition. The legendary band is a little bit punk, a little bit reggae, a little bit rock, a little bit new wave, a little bit pop, a little bit hip-hop and a lot of downtown attitude. Already gold in Europe, Blondie: Greatest Hits--Sound & Vision was released March 7 by Capitol/EMI, one week before the band's induction into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame. The new CD/DVD package contains 20 audio tracks and 16 video clips, including the band's biggest hits and previously unreleased remixes. "Rapture Riders"--a mash-up of the band's "Rapture" with the Doors' "Riders on the Storm"--and its accompanying UK music video make their release debut on the new collection.

Blondie's influence on today's artists is undeniable. Debbie Harry and Blondie have been a major influence on superstars like Madonna, Garbage's Shirley Manson, and R.E.M.'s Michael Stipe, among many others. They were one of the first groups to emerge from New York's new wave/punk renaissance with an album (1976's Blondie); the first to chart a #1 single, a revolutionaryblend of punk and disco ("Heart of Glass"); and the first to top the charts with both a rap song (1981's "Rapture") and a reggae tune ("The Tide Is High"). And now Blondie have added to their legacy by being selected for induction in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame along with Black Sabbath, Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Sex Pistols, and Miles Davis, as one of two first-time nominees (Davis is the other).

"This is a tremendous honor for us," said the band's lead vocalist Deborah Harry, who is celebrating Blondie's 30th anniversary this year. "We're proud to take our place alongside some of our own idols."

  • CD/DVD with 20 audio tracks and 16 videos, including Blondie classics: "Heart of Glass," "Atomic," "Call Me," "Rapture," "Maria"; previously unreleased remixes of "In the Flesh" and "Good Boys"; and special bonus audio and video tracks: "Rapture Riders"--Blondie vs. the Doors (debut release of the new mash-up of the band's 1980 hit "Rapture" and the Doors' "Riders on the Storm").

  • DVD includes 13 music videos spanning 1977 to 1982, including groundbreaking conceptual clips for "Denis" and "The Tide Is High," as well as their most recent productions for "Maria" and "Good Boys," plus the new music video for the "Rapture Riders" mash-up.
