Blondie
The Hunter
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

1982 Original with custom inner sleeve. Released in 1982, "The Hunter" is the sixth studio album by Blondie and marked a turning point in the band's trajectory. Arriving after the commercial success of "Autoamerican," the album reflected both the group's adventurous spirit and the internal pressures they were facing. The band experimented with various musical styles, incorporating elements ranging from funk to early hip-hop, but the album struggled to find a cohesive identity. Notable tracks include "Island of Lost Souls," which reached the UK Top 20, and "War Child," a song addressing contemporary conflicts. While "The Hunter" featured the familiar blend of Debbie Harry’s charismatic vocals and Chris Stein’s eclectic production, it received mixed reviews from critics and did not achieve the chart success of their previous works.
