I tend to not blog about "best of" albums unless there's something that makes them unique. This particular compilation features special mixes of "Heart of Glass", "Sunday Girl", and "In the Flesh" by producer Mike Chapman, but aside from some new sounds added to "Heart of Glass" and some French lyrics on "Sunday Girl", the mixes aren't that "special", IMO. Still, The Best of Blondie (1981) is a great, albeit not definitive, collection. For a more comprehensive career-spanning collection, Greatest Hits CD+DVD (2006) is a much better set (although so far unavailable on vinyl).
