The B-52's self-titled debut album on Island Records

The B-52's - The B-52's

ISLAND RECORDS

Originally released in 1979, The B-52’s self-titled debut album is a classic of new wave, and one of the greatest records of all time. It includes the singles 'Rock Lobster,' 'Planet Claire' and 'Dance This Mess Around.'

Garage-rock twang, keen pop-smarts, post-punk farfisa fun-times and atomic-age inventiveness all meet on this album of restrained perfection.
