"Talent Talk" Billboard October 22, 1977: 54 The first album was re-released on the new label in October 1977. Rolling Stone's review of the debut album observed the eclectic nature of the group's music, comparing it to Phil Spector and the Who, and commented that the album's two strengths were Richard Gottehrer's production and the persona of Debbie Harry. The publication said she performed with "utter aplomb and involvement throughout: even when she's portraying a character consummately obnoxious and spaced-out, there is a wink of awareness that is comforting and amusing yet never condescending." It also noted that Harry was the "possessor of a bombshell zombie's voice that can sound dreamily seductive and woodenly Mansonite within the same song". Debbie Harry performing with Blondie in Toronto, 1977 The band's first commercial success occurred in Australia in 1977, when the music television program Countdown mistakenly played their video "In the Flesh", which was the B-side of their then current single "X-Offender".

Christopher John Murray describes the work as follows: > Building on the premise that philosophy cannot ultimately explain existence, > he merges the earlier philosophies of Nature and identity with his newfound > belief in a fundamental conflict between a dark unconscious principle and a > conscious principle in God. God makes the universe intelligible by relating > to the ground of the real but, insofar as nature is not complete > intelligence, the real exists as a lack within the ideal and not as > reflective of the ideal itself. The three universal ages – distinct only to > us but not in the eternal God – therefore comprise a beginning where the > principle of God before God is divine will striving for being, the present > age, which is still part of this growth and hence a mediated fulfillment, > and a finality where God is consciously and consummately Himself to > Himself.Christopher John Murray, Encyclopedia of the Romantic Era, 1760–1850 > (Taylor & Francis, 2004: ), pp. 1001–02.
