Biography

The B-52's are most recognisable from their brightly coloured 50-retro look and their unique vocals, mixing the high-pitched melodic harmonies of lead singers Cindy Wilson and Kate Pierson with the sprechgesang vocals of frontman Fred Schneider. Formed in early 1977, their eponymous debut album was released in 1978 and quickly gained an underground following, as their new-wave/surf pop sound… Read more in Amazon's B-52's Store

3.0 out of 5 stars an odd noise, January 27, 1999
By A Customer
Apart from the 12" mix of Love Shack - which is this cd's killer - this is a pretty savage restructuring of the B-52s sound. It's puzzling to think who this will appeal to, as the sound is so aggressively contemporary, and a lot of 52 fans (I suspect) are no longer in the first flush of youth (so to speak). Like the previous reviewer says, don't get this if you're wanting the original thing, but by all means give this a listen.

5.0 out of 5 stars This ROCKS! It's just plain fun!, September 11, 1998
If you like the B-52's you'll want this CD. There are some great remixes on here, and they just fit the band so well. Front to back fun. A very enjoyable listen.

But, this shouldn't be a pick for a first-time CD from the band. This is incredible fun only if you know the band. If you don't, then it's gonna sound a lot like "yet another" album of dance tracks.

5.0 out of 5 stars fun remixes..., June 6, 1999
This remix EP from the B-52's is way above par. The Jason Nevins remix of "Hallucinating Pluto" is a fun journey through "laser beams"... The Edge Factor Club Mix of "Debbie" is wonderful as well. The 12" mix of Love Shack is a must-have for any party. The only downfall to this cd is the horrible Scottische Mix of "Good Stuff" done by Moby. Just Brutal.
