This Blondie post starts off with a WPIX program called 'Radio Radio', broadcast Feb.3, 1980.

Blondie members are the guest disc jockeys on this night.

It starts off with a really cool and rare German version of "Heart of Glass".

The DJ talks over part of it during the middle and at the end says, "this is what's happening in Germany, dancing at the discos".

Then I went through the painstaking task of tracking each and every phone call.

Once that was all done, I had more material that I decided to add as filler from the same time period.

A snippet from the Central Park July 9, 1979 soundcheck, which has never circulated, along with 2 songs from the Central Park 79.

This comes from an alternate source, that should be new to circulation.

Then I had another interview with Debbie Harry and Chris Stein.

The interviewer goes to the apartment that Debbie and Chris were sharing at the time.

That interview segment also includes a live song from London 1979.

Followed by the audio portion from The Muppets Show that Debbie performs and talks with the muppets.

Overall, this Blondie torrent is a cool package and is very interesting ear candy.

This torrent has everything plus the kitchen sink.

Here's the Blondie break down:
