Free Music Review: Classic B-52's
Hit: 5 Stars
If you're a B-52's fan then you'll love their latest CD. If you're not, then start with their earlier stuff first and work on your appreciation of their creative genius.
This is def classic B52 "good stuff".

Hit: 3 Stars
Had forgotten how much I missed these guys. Still great fun, even for those of us who are now a bit older than when we knew all 16 dances.Free Music Review: Funplex- Very Good
Hit: 5 Stars
I love the B-52's especially their first two albums. You can definitely hear the old sound in this album. I think that they got to make the album themselves without much influence. It is well worth it.Free Music Review: Glorious Euphorious Harmonious Hip-Shakin Fuh-fuh-fun
Hit: 5 Stars
Pop it in the car player, let the top down, crank up the volume - it's summer music at its unadulterated best! An impulsive smile-making sensation from start to finish, a viscous condensed shot of killer purple psychedelic sunshine. If you like the B-52's you'll likely love the aptly-named Funplex.
I'm not a B-52's purist or a rabid fan but I do have all their others and do enjoy their music quite a bit, but Funplex is my favorite so far. If you don't like B-52's, you won't like this one. It's their classic sound: wonderfully difficult minor harmonies, peppy, hoppy, dancey music, accentuated by Fred Schneider's charming oddness.
They're all lookin' great too!!
Free Music Review: The B's are back!
Hit: 5 Stars
First a disclaimer--I've always loved the B-52's but felt the group's recordings were too few and far between. Funplex proves to be worth the wait. This is a group whose sound has lost very little over the years and since they all now qualify for AARP cards (yep, me too!)the energy of Funplex is surprising. Their voices are amazing still and Keith Strickland's guitar work remains incredible. The B's are not coasting on past success and are far from a nostalgia act...they've held up and remain relevant. Songs range from the rollicking 'Hot Corner' to the sublime 'Juliet of the Spirits' and the interplay of Cindy Wilson's and Kate Pierson's voices is just lovely. And Fred is still my favorite cheerleader!
Funplex is this summer's 'roll down the windows and crank up the music' release. Enjoy!
