The B-52's: (self-titled)

(Warner Bros., 1979)

Discovery:  I have no idea how I came across The B-52s, but my guess is somewhere between my phase of new-wave obsession or my friends and I being really into "Rock Lobster" in school.  In any case, this is a really fun band to listen to.

Result:  This record always puts me in the best mood!  Sometimes I feel like I'm not high enough to listen to some of these songs, but they put a smile on my face and a bounce in my step nonetheless.  And how insane is the video for "Rock Lobster"?

Stand-out Tracks: "Dance This Mess Around", "Rock Lobster", "Hero Worship"
