A kitschy, exuberant new-wave debut of surf guitar and party energy, home to 'Rock Lobster'. Fun and distinctive. A cult classic. Released in 1979, it's a standout in The B-52's's catalogue.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
