Rare Actual 1979 Japanese First Pressing Of The Fabulous First LP By B-52’s! Includes 4-Page Insert With Lyrics In English & Japanese. Labels Are Clean.
The B-52’s is the debut album by the Athens, Georgia-based new wave band. They went on to release several chart-topping singles. The album cover was designed by Tony Wright. Produced by Chris Blackwell, The B-52’s peaked at number 59 on the Billboard 200, and “Rock Lobster” reached number 56 on the Hot 100. Their style of jerky, angular funk is a lot of fun and very danceable. “Planet Claire”, “Dance This Mess Around” & “Rock Lobster” are great songs. The B-52’s adoration of camp culture wasn’t simply affectation, it was a world view capable of turning out brilliant pop singles and, in turn, influencing mainstream pop culture.
Condition – Vinyl: NEAR MINT!
Condition – Cover: EXCELLENT!
Japanese vinyl pressings are highly sought after by audiophiles and collectors, due to their premium sound quality and beautifully presented packaging. The sonic quality of Japanese records is regarded as the best in the world. No wonder all the original Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab records were pressed in Japan! The covers are printed on better quality heavy stock paper too. Near Mint condition Japanese pressings are becoming scarcer ~ and therefore more collectable and valuable every year.
