1970s - #2: In October 1979, Pat Benatar released her first album, In The Heat of The Night. Having already released 2 singles that year that failed to chart, expectations for the album were minimal. Benatar herself said "My album was the last of a bunch by female singers to come out so I was told not to expect much, even though Mike Chapman was producing." Instead, the album went to #12 on the Billboard charts, propelling Pat to stardom. The next single, Heartbreaker, released in December 1979, was a smash hit, climbing to #23 on the charts. As the 1970s became the 1980s, Pat Benatar would become the leading lady of rock and roll, winning 4 consecutive Grammy Awards for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance, from 1980 to 1983. This FM broadcast captures Pat on tour in support of that first album, at the Bottom Line in New York, on November 3, 1979, 36 years ago today.

Thank you very much! PB was such a smash when she burst onto the scene in the late 70's, but I didn't get to see her until 1997...
