The Old Waldorf, SF CA 21 September 1977 - Early And Late Shows
Ca. ein Jahr nach dem von Kritikern schon sehr gut aufgenommenen Debüt spielten Blondie diese beiden Shows in San Francisco. Die Setlist wurden von dem Debüt genauso bestimmt wie von zahlreichen Coverversionen (Rolling Stones, Yardbirds, Runaways, Doors, Iggy Pop) und einem Ausblick auf Songs des bald darauf erscheinendem, zweiten Albums ‘Plastic Letters‘.
Less than a year after the release of their debut album, Blondie were reaching their peak as a pop-punk band. They played almost everything from that self-titled debut LP at these two shows in San Francisco in September 1977, as well as previewing most of their follow-up, 1978 s Plastic Letters. The performance, Broadcast on KSAN-FM, also includes surprise covers of songs by the Rolling Stones, Yardbirds, Runaways, Doors, and Iggy Pop that did not make their studio releases.
