Debbie Harry - French Kissing (Chrysalis)

The Face, The Voice, The Bleach, The Beat - they're bock and there's no one to touch her. Forget your Madonnas and Patsys - Debbie H is the one and only pop Blondie. This return to greatness is as simple and smooth as the slinky disco it accompanies. A Goddess is re-born. 5/5 (Paul Simper, No 1, November 8, 1986)

She's back! Back, BACK! (You're getting the hang of this nicely - "Reviews" Ed.) And back in spiffing form too with this addictive little shuffle between France and America, sort of Paris, Texas set in a late-night disco groove. Why, I was just saying the other day, "What the world needs now is the return of Debbie Harry", and lo and behold here she is, sounding just as brill as she did 250 years ago with Blondie. Listen with eyes firmly closed and tongue in cheek for best effect. Naughty but v.v. nice. Single Of The Fortnight. (Barry McIlheney, Smash Hits, November 5, 1986)
