Really? I guess it is a demonstration of how different people like different things. For example, I think that Mesopotamia is their absolute worst album, and I rarely listen to it, yet you think that it is their best album. We are polar opposites!
I remember when this EP came out... I worked at a record store and it was NOT easy for us to get copies, it had a pretty limited distribution contract obviously. Even the full album "Whammy" that came out a few months later was hard to get enough to put on sale... The industry did not care about the B-52's. We loved these records because they sounded like NOBODY else and always had a cool vibe to them...
Thanks for uploading this one! Those song versions are, even if maybe a little lower quality, so much better than the ones on Spotify where they have lots of missing tones and sound in general more "polished" (in a bad way) for some reason. This video is the only one where I found the "raw" versions I haven't known before!
This used to be the first album I would lead off any long road trip with. On my way to visit a long distance girlfriend, would leave at dawn and this would be the first cassette in the tape player. Memories of anticipation.
It's an excellent album but Wild Planet is their masterpiece that's just facts . You can like what ya like it's a free country but Wild Planet is their best with the self titled debut right behind . This is definitely in the top 5 tho.
Saw them live soo many times! The rhythm of our youth! Funnest dance party band ever..always peaceful energetic peers that just wanna rock out and have a great time! Love them! They will turn ears for generations to come. Ya.
I hated this album when it came out. It just bombed on me. Recently I watched their US Festival appearance. Great performances. The songs from Mesopotamia blew me away! I like the clever lyrics that no one could ever write. “I’ll meet you at/by the third pyramid in Mesopotamia”. Thrilling!

Deep sleep. Very cool track. Love that energy. Whatta smooth dreamy song 🎉

ROCK ON B52's
This album is sooo underated. Mesopotamia is simply an amazing album.
What makes you believe it's underrated?
Really?

They still don't care. Nothing pre-1989 is available on streaming platforms. Which is why I'm here.
Been living on planet Claire since 1980 I'm just loving it here 😎
I live on the moon, it's called the moon, and everyone is there.

I read somewhere that the european releases of this album have a more electronic sound than the US
Can't get enough of the B-52's!

Great album takes me back to the great days
Thank you very much for sharing this purely psychedelic album !👍😏
best album ever. the cover is amazing
Stop,stop,stop,stop,stop stop,stop,is driving me crazy.
What a great lyric
Can't believe this band never landed a Grammy! Unacceptable!
At least they nominated for "Love Shack & "Roam". 🤔 I believe.
They did land a Whammy!
Why judge someone by a crappy award?
I love this album
Yay the full album. Finally RUclips channel got something right.
Thank you so much, it’s a long time i was looking for this mini album.

Totally agree B-52s 👍
Thank you so much! I love it.
B,...you are totally right about that!!!
Soothing, love land.
There’s a different version with longer versions of those tunes, rare and delicious.
PARTY MIX
but is much worse then originál
I recommend listening to Mesopotamia (03) speed x1.25
CAKE !

I don't know why they hardly ever played "Loveland" live. It's my fave song off this album.
No, it was 7,000 years ago.
🙂
THANKS
