Ep 124: Gabriel Rotello Nominates Blondie's "Parallel Lines" (Pt 2)

Did you miss us? Did you really think a podcast called This One Goes to ELEVEN wasn't going to return for season ELEVEN? We're back, and we've got someone who has actually met the artist he's nominating! Musician, journalist, producer, director, activist, and Emmy-nominated and GLAAD Award-winning writer Gabriel Rotello is here to talk about Blondie's third album, Parallel Lines. He tells us all about paying dirt cheap rent in New York City and hanging out at CBGB when Blondie hadn't figured out how to play "Heart of Glass" yet. He's also written a real page-turner - The CBGB Conspiracy - that's part murder mystery and part historical account of living in the East Village in the late 70s. So after you've listened to our conversation, go check out his book! THE CBGB CONSPIRACY by Gabriel Rotello (https://www.gabrielrotello.com/) Bookshop: https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-cbgb...
