Advantages: Just brilliant in every way Disadvantages: None
a joy to read from start to finish, and really had me sitting and thinking as I turned the final few pages. It is really a moral story, with a bit of magic thrown in to cheer it up, but come the ending everything comes together in a quite shocking ending which really made me sit up and reread what I had just read! Ahern seems to have the ability to create a magical world on paper which you can visualise yourself so deeply that you are thrown so deeply into the story, you want to keep reading right until the end all in one go! The shiny snowflake cover allows this book to be a great Christmas gift as well as a book that is going to be great to bring out for Christmas again and again. I borrowed by copy from the library but will getting myself a copy as soon as its out in paperback. Highly recommended, I absolutely loved it - this is one book ...
Advantages: 5 of their greatest hits; catchy tunes; deep lyrics; exciting sound Disadvantages: does not include the 'French' version of 'Sunday Girl'
There is something about an act's third album that defines them and 'Parallel Lines' is no exception! Building upon the strengths of 'Plastic Letters,' Blondie were one of the hottest New Wave acts in 1978 and this album catches them and the exciting music scene at its peak.
Featuring five of Blondie's signature songs, 'Parallel Lines' would be worthy of having a 'Greatest Hits'volume 1 title'; it catches both the Punk/New Wave Blondie sound, yet the infectious lyrics and sunshine feel of 'Sunday Girl,' which would go on to be Blondie's second number 1 hit in 1979, and the disco classic 'Heart of Glass' on what would have been the '2' side on the LP paved the way for the more commercial Blondie of the early 1980s.
The arrangement on the songs is fairly simple but the lyrics offer some of the most deep, thought-provoking themes from ...
Advantages: Timeless songs Disadvantages: It was released so long ago
One of the first albums I bought was Parallel Lines by Blondie. Debbie Harry, who fronted the band, burst into our lives in the late 1970?s, after the band had formed in 1973. Debbie had attitude and it showed. She was sassy, peroxide blonde and good looking, as well as being THE Lady of Punk. Debbie was involved with Chris Stein, who played guitar in the band and they had formed Blondie together.
Parallel Lines is timeless. The songs still sound as fresh today as they did back in the late 70?s. This was the third album release from Blondie and can be bought for £10.99 from HMV.
The cover of the album shows the band standing against a backdrop of thick black and white lines, hence the title.
