Blondie - PBS Soundstage, Chicago USA 2015 | Albums That Should Exist

 

Blondie - PBS Soundstage, WTTW Studios, Chicago, IL, 12-10-2015

Paul Says: I just posted a Blondie concert album yesterday, (the day before now!) but I'm going to post this one here already before I forget about it. This was Blondie's turn on the excellent TV show "PBS Soundstage."

It's rather unfortunate it took so long before Blondie appeared on this show, especially since the show first began the same year the band was formed, way back in 1974. But at least the band has stayed pretty active coming up with new material. They released three new studio albums in the 2010s. The second one, "Ghosts of Download," was released a year prior to this concert. Although it was a sign of their declining sales that they felt the need to bundle it with a greatest his collection.

This album is a mix of old and new. I count seven songs from their recent albums, compared to seven of their classic hits.

The music here is unreleased. The sound quality is excellent. 

This album is an hour and 12 minutes long.
