Details: Amazon.ca Although birthed in New York City's CBGB punk scene, Blondie from the beginning knew how to make up in finesse whatever they lacked in power. This extensive two-CD collection includes all the band's essential work--from their early affection for 1960s girl groups ("In the Flesh"), and new wave pop-rock ("Hanging on the Telephone"), to the later turn to discofied rhythms ("Heart of Glass", "Call Me"), reggae ("The Tide is High") and even rap music ("Rapture"). That Blondie could churn out incredibly catchy radio-ready hits that defined the late-70s and early 80s without sacrificing their artistic credibility is a true testament to their blazing talent. Their rhythm section is incredibly tight, their mix of keyboards and guitar is always just right. Several remixes and an unreleased cut are added as bonuses. But the real treat is just having all these great tracks backed up next to one another. --Rob O'Connor
