Blondie is an American rock band co-founded by singer Debbie Harry and guitarist Chris Stein. The band were pioneers in the American punk and then the new wave scene of the mid-1970s in New York.

Over the next three years, the band achieved several hit singles including "Heart of Glass", "Call Me", "Rapture" and "The Tide Is High". The band became noted for its eclectic mix of musical styles, incorporating elements of disco, pop, reggae, and early rap music.

Released in 2006, this budget-priced Collections compilation features 12 songs from Lou Reed's late-'70s/early-'80s output, including obvious hits like "Walk on the Wild Side," "Satellite of Love," and "Vicious," as well as deeper cuts like "Tell It to You Heart" from 1986's wildly uneven Mistrial and "The Gun" from 1982's overlooked Blue Mask album. It's by no means definitive, nor does it make a lick of sense, but there are enough decent tracks to not turn it into a coaster.
