Blondie
No Exit
Review by Gary Hill
For fans of the classic Blondie sound, this album is certainly a welcome return. The band seems to have stayed faithful to their old sound, while updating it. A couple of the songs here appear to have definite musical links to older Blondie classics, but all have their foot firmly planted in that respectable musical legacy.
Blondie (Clem Burke, Jimmy Destri, Deborah Harry and Chris Stein) are joined on this disc by numerous musical guests, most notably Coolio.
