What's Your Favorite Blondie Album?

To my fellow Blondie fans, there's a poll over at Albumsism going on through Sunday to vote for your favorite album of the band's. While it feels like Sophie's choice to me -- hard to say "Parallel Lines" isn't perfect, that "AutoAmerican" isn't bizarrely sublime and that "Eat to the Beat" isn't the greatest power-pop album ever recorded -- I ended up going with my tried-and-true answer: "Plastic Letters." With two of their best singles of all time -- "Denis" and "(I'm Always Touched by Your) Presence, Dear" -- my favorite album track of theirs ("Fan Mail") and a stream of quirky songs -- "Bermuda Triangle Blues (Flight 45)," "Contact in Red Square," "Youth Nabbed as Sniper," "I'm on E," "Kidnapper" -- that seemed a little more organic that their debut's tongue-in-cheek brand of pop, "Plastic Letters" is still the one I didn't have the nerve to say no to. Vote on their site and don't be shy about leaving me a comment with your answer.
