A TIMELESS COLLECTION OF MEMORIES AND PARTY FAVORITES, August 27, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The B-52's - Time Capsule - Videos for a Future Generation 1979-1998 [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Time Capsule. Songs for a future generation. Very appropriately titled. This collection of such off-the-wall tunes as: Planet Claire, Rock Lobster, and the college anthem Party Out Of Bounds, brings back memories of the days of big hair, high heels, and thrift shop chic. Once again the B-52's prove to be as timeless as Levi's and Volkswagens. The college crowds and baby boomers, as well as generation X'ers will love this compilation. With the much-anticipated return of vocalist Cindy Wilson, along with two brand new songs, the group once again soars into the stratosphere and takes us along for a wild ride. This is a must for any B-52's fan. ( Or anyone just looking for some fun dance tunes. ) So grab your matching towels, head for the dance floor and just have fun. END

Upgraded & almost complete, February 27, 2006
This review is from: The B-52's - Time Capsule - Videos for a Future Generation 1979-1998 [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is an upgraded version of the first video collection, 1979-1989. This new version has everything from the previous compilation, with the exception of Fred's solo video which, truthfully, is not missed. Added here are 2 of the videos from "Good Stuff"; the title song and "Is That You Mo-Dean?". There were 2 other videos filmed, "Tell It Like It T-I-S" and "Revolution Earth" (the best song from the album), but they are not here. A pity, since this would be more complete had they been included. The band didn't care for the former video, it being a rather bland in-studio lip-sync, but the video for "Revolution Earth" was rather nice as I recall. But at last the great "Deadbeat Club" video is present, in all its sepia-tinted splendor. A new song, "Debbie" is featured, with the return of Cindy to the lineup. The previously released videos are all fine: "Rock Lobster" (live concert clip), "Legal Tender", "Roam", and the rest. An added bonus is a 1990 live clip of the band performing the title song to their classic "Cosmic Thing" album. Overall, a good compilation of videos, despite the exclusion of the two mentioned above. Maybe a DVD collection will include all of them? Someday?
