| | B-52's Time Capsule: Songs For A Future Generation CD B-52's Discography of CDs
 (3 Customer Reviews)
All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology.
When Athens, Georgia's B-52s hit the scene in the late '70s, they brought to the burgeoning punk scene a sense of fun and wacky excess. The B-52s would influence the genre for years to come. TIME CAPSULE offers the definitive selection of delights, covering the band's nearly 20-year span of great records.
TIME CAPSULE presents the listener with a nonstop dance party, beginning with the early hits and following in chronological order. The B-52s turned an extremely simple concept-sing all the girls names you can come up with-into "52 Girls," an instant pop classic. And who could forget the practically monotone keyboard bouncing away to a back-up chorus of shellfish? Or Fred Schneider looking for his telephone to call his babe and offering to kiss (among other things) her pineapple under the "Strobelight." Other highlights include the huge hit "Love Shack," the beautiful "Roam," and two new tracks not available elsewhere ("Debbie" and "Hallucinating Pluto"). TIME CAPSULE is highly recommended for beginners and fans alike.
Recorded at Dreamland Studios, Woodstock, New York.
The B-52's: Fred Schneider, Cindy Wilson, Kate Pierson (vocals); Pat Irwin (guitar, keyboards); Keith Strickland (guitar); Sara Lee (bass); Charles Drayton (drums).
Engineers include: Sue Kappa.
Entertainment Weekly (5/29/98, p.77) - "...[most of TIME CAPSULE is] euphorically fresh music that got the punk crowd dancing and reveled in retro irony long before it hardened into a post-modern pose..." - Rating: B Time Capsule: Songs For A Future Generation Music Time Capsule: Songs For A Future Generation Music Time Capsule: Songs For A Future Generation Music Review Average Rating: (4.3 out of 5 stars)   Always Smokin!
I used to play these songs for my Ed Psych 200 course, as students were streaming in. They ALWAYS got things moving in class.
These are some of THE most OUTSTANDING Rock songs from the last 40 years. "Channell Z" "Song for a Future Generation". Incredible. And the DVD was AWESOME.

Time Capsule: Songs For A Future Generation music CDs
$16.49
Having recorded and toured with some of the most popular performers in smooth jazz, it would have been very easy for composer and multi-instrumentalist Alec Milstein to go the safe route for his solo debut and create a mainstream recording in that genre. Feeling the artistic need to dig much deeper, Milstein on Dancing in the Rain explores a great love for Latin music which he first cultivated when he became aware of a South American heritage on his mother's side of the family. While his career as both a sideman and composer for television and film has allowed him to dabble in original expressions of many Latin cultures, this is the first time Milstein has had the opportunity to express the fullness of his melodic and polyrhythmic artistry. Dancing in the Rain opens with "Cantare," a rousing celebration of song equating music with rest and joy and featuring Milstein's textured vocals among cool soundscapes and a breezy acoustic guitar. The festive, tropical-flavored title track includes the buoyant invitation to "Baila!," while "Amor Mio" finds Milstein in a reflective mood, longing dreamily for love with a graceful guitar/vocal combination. The lively, anthemic reminder that "Love Grows All Around the World" features ...
