  • Description

    Debbie Harry's first solo album was recorded in 1981 while Debbie and Chris Stein took a break from Blondie. Teaming up with CHIC's Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards to produce an album fusing funk, rock, disco and new wave. Their innovative production pre-dated their future work with David Bowie and Madonna.



    Originally released in 1981, KooKoo went on to sell half a million copies in America, attaining gold status. The album contained two hit singles, 'Backfired' and 'The Jam Was Moving'.

    The audio for this release has been expanded to include a bonus 12" with remixes from the singles. It has been mastered from the original pre-production tapes and cut at Half-Speed by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios.
