Debbie Harry & Blondie: Picture This by Mick Rock
3.0
For the first 185 pages I thoroughly enjoyed this pictography featuring photos of Debbie Harry circa 1976ish to 1979 with narrative supplied by author/photographer, Mick Rock. I loved reliving the musical exuberance and relative innocence which Blondie exuded in the late 1970's. The photo's are little known shots from photo shoots done by Rock which he sold to magazines.
Sadly, the iconic Parallel Lines album cover was not one of them.
After page 185, the reader is propelled to the future fates of Rock and the diminishing notoriety of Harry. Brought together once again in the early 2000's, one is reminded that sometimes you just can not relive a time gone by and in some respects, no matter how hard one tries, the magic isn't the same.
