BBC Newsnight 1981: KooKoo and Giger
BBC Newsnight in 1981 follows Debbie Harry into the biomechanical world of H.R. Giger and the solo album KooKoo, produced by Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards while Blondie was still high on the charts. The cover, her face pierced by acupuncture needles, is the image the item keeps: she does not look safe. Harry moves through the piece with cool control, linking the band’s chart run and a stranger chapter that would not stay neat. She does not apologize for the image. She leaves it on screen, exact and a little cold.
