My advice! BUY IT NOW!

I Decided to buy th e B-52'S disc after seeing the band perform at Foxwoods Casino July 14, 2007. The music brings back memories , and the harmonization of the group is excellent. Kate Pierson's voice is powerful in songs like Roam. I have to be in the mood for this type of music, generally I prefer hard rock, although music in itself can be a powerful tool to change moods .The B-52'S remain one of the worlds greatest party bands.

My brother got me this CD because he thought "Rock Lobster" sounded so funny and he is right, it does. This album has several songs that I enjoy, especially "Strobe Light", "Private Idaho", and "Love Shack". I had to have some of these hits put on my iPod. I like their hip retro sound. The girls really hit those high notes and the lead singer has such a distinctive voice. The funny lyrics make me smile over and over again. A classic, *****5 stars

I absolutely have no negative things to say other than I highly recommend these people. They are the most considerate and the communication is fast and accurate. I am sticking with this seller for all my Music entertainment. The B-52's and I go way back to my generation and they are still going strong. Thanks B-52's. You have been the best for years. Bless Ricky from above!!

Real Good Stuff !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For those who love the absurdity of 80's music, it's hard to find better "abnormal" music than the B-52's. A far cry from the sappy and carbon copy music of today, B-52's songs are fast, fun, and funny. You won't simply find a dozen cliche love-related songs here (unless you count "The Love Shack"... I don't), but rather songs about a man entranced with his dark-green puppy, alien abduction, and various rocking ocean life. Definitely not for those who take their music seriously, the B-52's are reminicient of a time when forming a successful band meant being as flamboyant and different as possible.
Time Capsule is an excellent collection of the songs that brought fame to the B-52's, and thus, there really isn't a song here that isn't likeable to a potential fan. With a playtime of over 79 minutes and 18 solid tracks, it's certainly a good value, especially now that even the album itself is a decade old and it's quite easy to find for cheap.
"Now get on your lazer beam, Daddy and RIDE through your telescope, into the night!"

GREAT CD! Best of the B-52's. Excellent selections. Nothing to dislike about this CD. Rock Lobster is still a classic!

Comeon, admit it....you used to dance in the living room when the Love Shack video came on MTV. Well now you can dance the evneing away with this greatest hits cd. All the B52 songs you heard on the radio and saw on MTV in once disk. A must have!
