The B-52’s – B-52’s (LP, Music on Vinyl)

Limited 180gm audiophile vinyl LP pressing including insert. The B-52s is the debut album by the Athens, Georgia based new wave band The B-52s. The album cover was designed by Tony Wright. Produced by Chris Blackwell, The B-52s peaked at #59 on the Billboard 200, and Rock Lobster reached #56 on the Hot 100. The jerky, angular Funk was danceable. Its all great fun. Songs like Planet Claire, Dance This Mess Around and Rock Lobster illustrated that The B-52s adoration of camp culture wasnt simply affectation, it was a world view capable of turning out brilliant pop singles and, in turn, influencing mainstream pop culture.
