The B-52s Mesopotamia



I've been listening to the The Rapture's essential mix quite a bit lately. The mix of great funk, early rap and hip hop make it a very fun (aka double dutch) affair. This track by the B-52s is on it, pretty much unedited. Obviously there was, simply, no room for improvement.

  1. This is one of my favorite tracks on that mix too. Such a cool song, and the fact that it hasn't really aged is pretty impressive.

    Did you know: this song was produced by David Byrne of Talking Heads?
    No? Neither did I until I googled it just then.

  2. I did not, I am interested to hear that.

    And I present, for your listening pleasure, another song David Byrne helped with.
