Debut album from Athens GA indie band the B-52’s. So amazing how fully-formed they were on this debut LP, with “Rock Lobster” and “Dance This Mess Around.” This is a must have for an 80s music fan.

The original line-up here: Katie Pierson, Fred Schneider, Keith Strickland, Cindy Wilson and Ricky Wilson. Sadly Ricky Wilson died of AIDS-related illness in the mid 80s.

My copy—via the Worcester Record Riot—is a Winchester pressing on the tiled WB logo labels and the printed inner.
