The album features a blend of power pop, classic rock, and disco influences, with Debbie Harry’s charismatic vocals leading tracks like \"Heart Of Glass,\" \"One Way Or Another,\" and the punchy cover \"Hanging On The Telephone.\" The songwriting partnership between Harry and Chris Stein, alongside contributions from new bassist Nigel Harrison and outside writer Jack Lee, crafted some of the era’s most memorable songs, securing Blondie's place on both sides of the Atlantic. Parallel Lines isn’t just a collection of hits; it’s a snapshot of late ’70s pop-rock sophistication with a tough-girl glamour that foretold the coming decade’s pop icons. This 1978 vinyl pressing offers a chance to hear the album as it circulated during Blondie’s rise to international stardom. The record is in \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shoptheden.com\/blogs\/news\/how-we-grade-vinyl-records-at-the-den\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eVG++\u003c\/a\u003e condition, presenting glossy, very clean vinyl with only minor light surface marks that won’t detract from focused listening. For those lining up their shelves by era or style, this pressing slots neatly among late ’70s pop-rock essentials—proof that sometimes the lines you want to parallel are on the turntable grooves rather than the charts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003csection data-track-listing=\"true\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTrack listing \u0026amp; samples\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBlondie - Parallel Lines\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHanging On The Telephone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne Way Or Another\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePicture This\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFade Away And Radiate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePretty Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Know But I Don't Know\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill Anything Happen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSunday Girl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeart Of Glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm Gonna Love You Too\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust Go Away\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embeds\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embed\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vmCCRHVwzt0\" allowfullscreen loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:152px;border:0;border-radius:12px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embed\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/4M6s2jbhKWEcOdXZ8WiHts\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:152px;border:0;border-radius:12px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Den Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"VG++ \/ VG+ \/ 1978","offer_id":53997140181308,"sku":"DEN00000115","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/9932\/2684\/files\/OTgtNTc1OC5qcGVn.jpg?v=1787013678","url":"https:\/\/shoptheden.com\/products\/blondie-parallel-lines-lp-081826","provider":"The Den New Hope PA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
