'Sunday Girl' was a number 1 hit for Blondie for 3 weeks from 26th May 1979. The single came from their fantastic 'Parallel Lines' album, the groups 3rd album although the first to gain them real popularity.

We have a couple of clips for you this week, first off a live performance in 1979, we love Debbie rocking the androgynous look in trouser suit, shirt and tie!
Prior to being the lead singer of Blondie, Debbie Harry was a member of The Stillettos in the early 70s, an all girl group that used to play on the New York circuit. We found a pic of them here with
The New York Dolls at the Bacchus Rock Palace, see Debbie on the left with her pins out!
