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". |
