Album Review
 

Eat to the Beat was Blondie's fourth studio album. It reached number one on the UK album charts in October 1979.

Blondie released three U.K. singles from this album ("Dreaming", "Union City Blue" and "Atomic"). Three singles were released in the U.S. ("Dreaming", "Atomic" and "The Hardest Part"). The album includes such diverse styles as punk, reggae, and funk as well as a lullaby.

Eat to the Beat was the first ever "video album", meaning it was commercially released on home video simultaneously with the audio album. Every song on the album has a corresponding music video.

Deborah Harry mentioned during the UK tour for this album that she enjoyed singing "Accidents Never Happen" and "Shayla" the most.

The album was digitally remastered and reissued by EMI-Capitol in the year 2001, with four bonus tracks. The 2001 remaster was again reissued in 2007 (June 26 - U.S.; July 2 - U.K.) without the four bonus tracks. Included instead was a DVD for the video album. This was the first time the Eat To The Beat video album was available in the DVD format.
