AUTOAMERICAN
 
 
Autoamerican  is the fifth studio album by the American rock band Blondie.  It was released in November 1980 and reached No. 3 in the UK charts, No. 7 in the US, and No. 8 in Australia.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 
Of more importance though is the ground-breaking song “Rapture” by Blondie – with a rap section that was performed by Deborah Harry – that was released in 1980 on their album Autoamerican.  As noted in Wikipedia, this was the first song to top the American charts that featured rap, and also the first rap video to be broadcast on MTV.
