Blondie was pop and this is the rock section.
The first ever large scale concerts were around 69 with woodstock and the loudest gig was at charlton's ground in London.
Up till then none of your bands would sell out such spaces to create stadium sounds of hard rock.
They wouldn't have sold enough tickets.
Noone knew what large scale rock was till the who played these huge concerts and then promoters went mad for them. That's how led zeppelin started making stadium hard rock.
See my point? Urban is losing this arguement. I mean claiming blondie is a woman's rock star.
