Debbie Harry and Chris Stein of Blondie are taking a deep dive into the history of music production by executive producing a documentary on Mike Chapman, the mastermind behind some of their most successful albums.
The documentary, "Simply the Best: The Mike Chapman Story," promises to offer an intimate look at the man whose production genius is etched into the grooves of "Parallel Lines" and "Eat to the Beat." Chapman's influence on Blondie's sound helped propel the band to new heights, and this film aims to highlight the pivotal role he played in their storied career.
Mike Chapman, reflecting on the journey of creating the documentary, shares, "After several years of putting this together I am looking forward to getting it out there. It’s a story of how music changed and shaped me as I fought my way through decades of ups and downs."
His anticipation is palpable as he prepares to unveil his narrative—a tale of resilience and evolution within the ever-changing music industry.
