Which blondie album is call me on

The Blondie singer watched an early cut of American Gigolo and wrote lyrics for the song based on her impression of the male prostitute played by Richard Gere who was at the center of the movie. She reportedly composed the words in just two hours. The rest of the band joined Harry in the studio for the recording of "Call Me. Moroder's instrumental take of the song eventually appeared on the single's B-side.

The new track was obviously targeted for the dance floor: Saturday Night Fever , and its huge commercial aftereffects, was still on everybody's minds. Moroder, a master at building the repetitiveness of a song to the point where it becomes a fine art, delivered one of his best works outside of Summer's influential catalog.

Blondie, for their part, sounded less like a band and more like the button pushers behind Harry - a point of contention that surfaced during the Eat to the Beat sessions. It didn't help matters here. But outside of "Heart of Glass," they never made a better song. They never made a bigger one either. The song's success temporarily interrupted Blondie's promotion of Eat to the Beat. But as the soundtrack song climbed the chart, a third single from the album, "Atomic," was put on hold until May, in the middle of "Call Me"'s hold at No.

Within a year, Blondie released their fifth album, Autoamerican , which spawned two more chart-topping singles, a cover of the early reggae song "The Tide Is High" and "Rapture," the first No.
