Blondie's Plastic Letters wasn't fully appreciated when it was released in February 1978 and it's often eclipsed by its follow up Parallel Lines. It's a shame, because Plastic Letters contains some of Blondie's most melodic, sophisticated and rockin' work. Join hosts Kyle Gordon and Louie Pearlman as they discuss Plastic Letters' dirty New York rocker roots that show through the band's platinum blonde sheen.

Show notes:
If you liked Plastic Letters, we recommend The Paragons' 1967 release On the Beach With the Paragons which introduced the world to the wonderful "The Tide Is High," later covered by Blondie. Also check out original Blondie bassist Gary Valentine's work with his band The Know for some mystically-charged, herky-jerky Power Pop and New Wave. - Louie
