1986's BOUNCING OFF THE SATELLITES found the B-52s in the throes of mourning (they'd lost guitarist Ricky Wilson). But they returned in 1989 with COSMIC THING, a corker that set up the band for '90s success. This is a glorious party of a collection ...    Full Description

Average Rating: (4.8 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

4 stars Excellent
This is (was)their finest effort. Many excellent tunes, some laced with humor and wit. Well worth your money. "Love Shack" is a classic rock and roll tune.

5 stars The B's bring it all together on this one
Earlier B-52's albums generally were just a bit much for me but there would be a song or two that really liked. I like every second of the songs on 'Cosmic Thing',and a couple of them arew on my all time faves list. Worth every penny

5 stars Masterpiece redux
The two must-have albums by the B-52s are: "Cosmic Thing" and "B52s." They are both flawless masterpieces of good-time get up and dance tunes.

B-52's B-52S CD  (1979)

Cosmic Thing album
CD $6.05  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Formed in Athens, Georgia, the B-52's emerged from this nominal outback with 'Rock Lobster', a quirky pop song that drew critical praise and engendered a major recording contract. The B-52's maintained the originality of that debut single, with staccato voices, vox guitar and surreal lyrics. Drawing on 60s kitsch ephemera, both aurally and visually, the quintet ...

B-52's Whammy! CD  (1983)

Cosmic Thing CD music
CD $9.09  3.3 stars Audio Samples
Opening with "Legal Tender," a paean to counterfeiting, WHAMMY is the B-52s' return to form after the previous year's David Byrne-led detour into more experimental territory (MESOPOTAMIA). Comprising a richer and fuller sound without compromising on the band's economy of sound, WHAMMY is an enjoyable work. Highlights include the aural personal ad "Song for a Future Generation," the rockin' legume tune "Butterbean," and the sci-fi "Moon 83" (replacing Yoko Ono's "Don't Worry" on this reissue). The album veers into the ridiculous-even by B-52s standards-on "Big Bird," ...

Based on the journals of Brother Gaspar de Carvajal, AGUIRRE, THE WRATH OF GOD is director Werner Herzog's hallucinatory tale of Spanish colonialists searching for El Dorado, the legendary city of gold, in 16th-century Peru. When the travellers reach an impasse, a scouting party is assembled to search for any traces of the mythical empire. As they attempt to forge their way through the dense jungle, more and more of the party falls ill while their ruthless leader, Don Lope de Aguirre (Klaus Kinski), grows increasingly insane.

Sydney (Philip Baker Hall), a mysterious professional gambler, befriends John (John C. Reilly), a young man in trouble, and teaches him the ways of making a living in the casinos of Reno. John gets involved with Clementine (Gwyneth Paltrow), a pretty waitress who doubles as a prostitute, and Jimmy (Samuel L. Jackson), a two-faced criminal. When trouble erupts, suddenly Sydney has to rescue his young friend, but a secret from his past threatens to destroy everything he has tried to build up. Director Paul Thomas Anderson's ...

One Night At Mccool's DVD  (2001) Widescreen

Cosmic Thing album
DVD $18.05  2 stars
The title refers to the night when three men, Randy (Matt Dillon), his cousin Carl (Paul Reiser) and Detective Dehling (John Goodman), all meet Jewel Valentine (Liv Tyler) at a bar called McCool's. Actually, they don't so much meet her as fall under her spell when they first lay eyes on her. In her clinging red dress she looks like a cross between a beautiful damsel in distress and the Lady In Red looking for John Dillinger. The story begins with Randy, desperate to be rid of Jewel, hiring a sleazy hitman, played by Michael Douglas in an outré toupee. His story of how Jewel led him to ruin, filmed in a stylized flashback bathed in blue, is mirrored by Carl talking to his therapist--played with a delicious verve by Reba McEntire, and Detective Dehling talking with ...

From "Strong Island" (Long Island, New York) came the unstoppable sound of Public Enemy, a rap band that saw itself as a vital, explicitly political voice in the black community. YO! BUM RUSH THE SHOW, their debut album, filled a gap in hip-hop: raps that attempted to delineate black suffering in America, and instill pride in the ...

Pure Blues CD  (2001)

This across-the-board blues compilations attempts to be all things to all blues fans, and comes as close to succeeding as any single-disc collection possibly could. Part of the reason is a series of cross-licensing coups that bring together tracks from a disparate group of labels, but mostly it's good old-fashioned taste. For the rock fans there's the Eric Clapton/Duane Allman duet "Mean Old World" and Stevie Ray Vaughan's "Flood Down in Texas." Those hungry for new, young blues heroes are offered the likes of Kenny ...

Faithless is to house what Massive Attack is to trip-hop--that is, both acts expand the boundaries of their respective styles while creating a fascinatingly dark atmosphere. Formed in London during the mid-1990s, Faithless is, at its core, producers Rollo and Sister Bliss, with rapper/vocalist Maxi Jazz fronting the group. ...
