After David Johansen closed his set at The Paradise on May 27, 1978, 41 years ago today, another new wave/punk icon took the stage. In early 1978, Blondie, led by Deborah Harry, released their second album, Plastic Letters, which slipped into the bottom quarter of the Billboard top 100 albums at #78. The disc enjoyed far more success in the UK. What no one at the Paradise could imagine, however, is that by the end of the year, Blondie would become an enormous success in the US. The album Parallel Lines, released in September, would hit #6 on the US charts, propelled by the single Heart Of Glass, which climbed all the way to the top spot.
