Description
Blondie: Parallel Lives offers an unparalleled insight into one of the most iconic groups of their generation. Drawing from extensive new interview material and personal accounts, this book chronicles the band's long and often tumultuous history. From their childhoods and influences to their rise to global superstardom and eventual break-up, Blondie: Parallel Lives is a comprehensive account of the group's development. The book also explores Debbie Harry's decision to set her career aside to care for Chris Stein during his illness, as well as the band's 1997 renaissance with their No Exit album. The story continues with the controversies surrounding the 2006 induction into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame and the most recent release of Panic of Girls. This book provides a unique perspective on the band's history, covering both the highs and lows of their remarkable career.
