Clem was one of punk's architects and he never stopped believing in it. A rock and roll hall of famer for Blondie and a punk hall of famer for Blondie and everything else. A legendary musician and person, we were honoured to have had him as a guest on the show. Our deepest condolences to his family and all his bandmates.
