B52's Mesopotamia (Extended dance re-edit)

[RAMBR0]

Back in the Zanz the extended mix was done live on turntables and still is in some places

@DEZINE5

We used to get it IN at Zanzibar. Red Light District and all lol!!! The chirrens today don't really know how to party like that but some are getting hip to it now. I love love love the whole underground scene how it has evolved now.

[honeybozo]

or maybe We did listen to the chorus "Mesopotamia that's where I wanna goooohooooo"

[honeybozo]

gosh -wish someone had forced W to listen to this...... -brings back memories of this lovely girl

[Natewashdan]

Best version...1st heard in 1982 as a college freshman. Thoz were the days!!! Dancing all nite til 6 am!!

[elGoatoDiablo]

WOW, I miss Athens, GA ! B-52's live at Legion Field, REM playing/testing unreleased material under a pseudonym at the Fabulous Rockfish Palace ! You just had to be there ! So much love and energy !

[princebubby]

It took me a few listens to get into this But now I love it.

B52s are/were brilliant. The more I listen to their work, the more impressed I am.

[djalsurdi67]

is this on a 12" single or a reel? i gotta locate it if it's a 12" single extended.

[iiXwolverineXii]

[gvt2u]

Terrific mix. Too bad this wasn't the original version.

[elektrosoundwave]

The Electrifying Mojo had a longer version. But nothing will top hearing The Wizard cut this up

[usedtobefriendly]

[BadAnimals1987]

Very good exclusive mix. Great job tomtomclubmix ! How about Genius of Love?

[elninolondres]

Always thought it needed to groove for longer - especially the psychedelic bit - nice one! Will always be one of my faves

[guamoco]

@snowbunny39

dittos!!!!!!

[WoodRatGirl]

You can't help but dance in your seat along to this, lol!

[weedbix]

I wasn't a big fan of this song originally, but it's grown on me for sure.

[aftereight01]

Before I talk I should read a book! Cool song.

[mgnssss]

any idea where i can get this digitally 320kbps?

[AlphaOrange75]

really fun listening...thanks for posting this!

[panamajack44]

there will never be another time like the early-mid 80s......back when i used to walk 5 miles in the snow to school and back, uphill both ways.......

[potorico1]

lmao......too funny...memories.......these kids would drop out nowadays......slugging thru snow in the AM....get to school...put in a full day...then walk home?....whew...how did we do it?

[19HALLOWEENJACK84]

You are lucky... I walked barefoot in the 60's...

... the B-52's are a late 70's band.

(Oh no he did'nt) lol

[generationx1966]

Late 70's early 80's music.... Talking Heads ,Clash etc. The was an awesome evolutionary time for rock n roll.

[whipslinger1]

This is the version that introduced me to the B52's. Tee Scott, Tony Humphries and Larry Patterson would all spin this extended remix version at Zanzibar back in the 80's. Boy, those were the days....

[tomtomclubmix]

It's an exclusive mix I'm afraid,but I'm glad you like it. You can find a similar but much shorter version by Danny Krivit on a UK 12"

[Oldschool4evr]

@whipslinger1 Zanzibar Was The Spot, Go In When It's Dark, Leave When The Sun Comes Up, I Miss Those Days For Real.....

[DEZINE5]

@whipslinger1 YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT ABOUT THOSE FACTS YOU HAVE STATED WE ROCKED @ KLUB ZANZIBAR ABE'S DISCO THE LINCOLN MOTEL IN THE RED LIGHT DISTRICT OF NEWARK, NJ 430 BROAD STREET WAS THE PLACE TO BE ON WEDNESDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY AND CERTAIN SPECIAL SUNDAY NIGHTS. LABOR DAY WEEKEND 1979 WAS THE OPENING OF THE KLUB WERE WE CAME TO DANCE IT OUT (THE PROBLEMS). WE SETTLED IT BY DANCING!!!!!

[filatelista2009]

I wonder if this song was ever popular in Iraq.

[wlh1us]

absolutely is without a doubt, how could they not be impressed by this song, people all over move to the same beat.......there is a culture also ,not all are soldiers, that would be my guess anyways

[booboobay1]

NICE!

[enossified]

I'm assuming you made this mix? Nicely done! I love it!

[champagnevoluptuous]

Haha-haha-haha-haha-haaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaa! They laid down the law!

[limetwig2007]

That's probably the version I just heard at the club if yours is exclusive. Thanks!

[limetwig2007]

Where can I find this remix? It's great!

[tomtomclubmix]

It's an exclusive mix I'm afraid,but I'm glad you like it. You can find a similar but much shorter version by Danny Krivit on a UK 12"

[kyoozoocanada]

Good idea. A tune I love, and now it's extended, and better suited for dancing. Thank you.
