Atomic - Blondie

Blondie released 'Atomic' in February 1980 and as such it was their first single of the Eighties. The single reached number 1 in the UK singles chart and number 39 in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.

This 12" single contains a live version of David Bowie's 'Heroes' featuring Robert Fripp on guitar, recorded at London's Hammersmith Odeon on January 11, 1980. The track was later included on 1993's rarities compilation 'Blonde and Beyond'.

My collection: 12" single no. 394
Found: Record fair, Amsterdam, January 1999
Cost: 5 guilders
Tracks: 'Atomic' / 'Die young stay pretty' / 'Heroes (live)'
