'Parallel Lines' is widely regarded as Blondie's best Album, & one of the greatest Pop Albums ever. The UK's 'Mail On Sunday' is giving that CD away - Free Gift - in every copy of tomorrow's, (December 5th), Issue! It will acually be inside - rather than a Token that you have to take to a Store. The 'Paper sells about 2,200,000 each Sunday, so that is how many copies of the Blondie Album are being given away. To me, it cheapens the Music. Turns it into a sort of, 'Free can of peas with every copy'. LINK:, smurl.name/4fv7 |

Already own this album, not sure such a big album should be given away for free though. Where's the profit to the artist coming from? Are the newspaper going to pay? Don't know how these things work.

Great album. Highly recommended to anyone who doesn't already own it.
(Throw the paper away before opening it, however. It's toxic.)

Great album. Highly recommended to anyone who doesn't already own it. (Throw the paper away before opening it, however. It's toxic.) Agreed. I bought the Daily Heil in 2008 when it had its classic 1980s daily series of 12 CD's freebies including: Paul Young - No Parlez; Human League - Dare; Culture Club - Colours By Numbers; Spandau Ballet - True & albums by Dexy's Midnight Runners; Adam & The Ants; Marillion; Bonnie Tyler; Simple Minds; Terence Trent D'Arby; Heaven 17 & Haircut 100. Nasty paper though:  |

What's with the 3 extra tracks on the end? I hate that, prefer just the original album of 12 tracks and not 15. Haven't got it only a GH so may get it.
