Blondie - Parallel Lines (Chrysalis, 1978)

In March, 2014, Uncut named its 50 Greatest American Punk Albums: 1975 - 1983.  I am listening to one a day and making comments.

Number 17 on the list.  I had this record when I was a kid.  It has "Heart of Glass" on it, which was a pretty big hit.  It also has Blondie's second best song: their version of the Nerves' "Hanging on the Telephone."  Not only did I have the actually record, but I also remember having a bubblegum version of the record with a tiny version of the sleeve and a piece of gum shaped like a record.  This record is good for me for the memories and the hits, which is all I want out of Blondie at this point.
