[fetishalchemy]

[AmyMeacham]

@keeflv Me too!!!

[iTEEZ]

[Burleism]

absolutely brilliant.........so glad this is what I grew up with I remember listening to their 1st LP over and over and over.......... when i finally got to see them live i was looking thru a haze from another galaxie-- those microdots will do that to you!

[NewMadrid01]

Cindy - Best. Voice. EVER!!!!

[deliatree]

Thank you so much for uploading this!! :)

[sil200p]

AMAZING....the text of the lyrics is an artwork. I am so surprised by how all the old b-52's is so unique

[komaboy]

what a fukcing amazing voice

[NewMadrid01]

This is my favorite B-52's song. It's just fucking awesome!! And Cindy, your voice is incredible!!

[gthomasstewart]

I love watching these guys. sends me back to college. but alas I sill watch them and listen;...better than the crap that is out there now. gts.

[akibubba1]

@gthomasstewart halelujah !! you rock, gts !! high school in my case, but my sentiments exactly. so-called "inventive" bands these days all sound the same (super-boring, that is...)

[harvestofdreamz]

this has to be some of the best b52s stuff i've ever heard. incredible recording.

[noodlam]

Mostest incredibilist concert evah at Landsdown St, Boston 1979. General admission. Got there hours early. Pushed our way to the front. Place was ALIVE!! Any other geezers out there go? We were the ones with the Hawaiian cheeba. Your welcome.

[embeleshow]

is this their first gig? Epic

[jerryx7]

kmills...find me on fb. jerry mccommons. I must know "more"......

[hyaena84]

I always thought it was "He deserves it, I will serve it"..... No?

What a great romp, either way. Fred looks so young and disinterested. So cool.

[steve0281]

Play it, Fred!

[spacelau]

OUARGLLLLLL !!!!

[BoonesFrry]

OH MY FRIGGIN GAWD. I think i love you. Thank you so much for this series. Brought back so many good memories of my late 70's early 80's

[mattoidable]

awwesome version, old school!

[TheMrchevreuil]

love the b52s and cindy 4 ever !!!! this is my favorite !!!

[spendolfosim]

Outstanding video. Thanks for that contribution to humanity.

[garu8193]

your lyrics are wrong she doesnt say he deserves it i preserve it, i checked it out on lyrics website, she says he deserves it and what of it

[MissLalaloo]

@garu8193 Not sure what you read online but this album came with the lyrics printed on the record sleeve and they read "He deserves it, I preserve it"

[mrbusters]

Fred's wearing a wife beater.

[lemonkooler]

@mrbusters haha I know! I love it!

[Timmybear]

@mrbusters - or, more accurately, a husband beater. ;)

[JuxboxBob]

love that guitar

[miamad]

If we knew this was going to happen, we would have picked our own cotton.

[ReconRepub37]

This is my favorite b52's song.

[Charles195th]

Is this audio jsut a feed from the board??? WOW They were friggin GREAT ..no wonder C.B.{Island} "pounced" on them early on.

[tecdessus]

thank you youtube and all the people who put these clips up,without them we would`nt get to see any of this

[borddakter]

I'm not worthy!!!

[rabidbanshee]

this is killa and uber kudos to the sage person who recorded it.

I was 16 when the B52's released their first lp and was a instant devotee.

[seziepie]

i love this song!! what a rad live clip they sound even better live than on the record!!

[hifimarantz]

great great great great.. that's **GREAT** stuff!!!! thankyou

[icmequipment]

Never realized how talented Kate was!!

[HypnoToad72]

Sweet.

A proper music video compilation really needs to be put out on DVD, with cool extras like this version of "Hero Worship"!

[missteel]

@Jackhillty

Their has been a few times were Cindy will play the gutiar as well.

[ramonarickettez]

gee. zus.

[Raiderfn31]

my fucking god this is rare stuff

[mazakman1957]

WOW I had never seen this one before!

Dam was Fred operating the sound board?

[Timmybear]

I think Fred is playing the keyboard bass.

[terrapanda]

Kate doesn't sing a note does she?

[WoodRatGirl]

One of their most great and underrated songs, in my opinion.

[wayout71]

unbelieveable.

[abzd555]

katie, you're such a naughty little vixen. i love you.  and yes.....you make me want to explode.

[michaelbohon]

Hero Worship...CINDY Deserves it....We Preserve it !!!!!!!!!!!

[Norwren]

is this pre recording?

[Coffee45]

This is fucking awesome! Oh your god, I love them!!

[LunaSeaSane]

Sweet to watch.

[slayerproductions038]

Keith still looks amazing!

[everythingt]

Her Highness Cindy and 52s total deliciousness. If there is anything better I haven't found it.

[singdrossel]

Klasse !

[stretchmonster2]

Kate makes ME want to EXPLODE!!!

[woowoo1967]

Cindy does the same thing for me........:)

[Coffee45]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! sorry! So AWESOME, I almost EXPLODED!!!!

[WoodRatGirl]

Love this song on the album, she's so gutsy when she sings it.

[thesupeshow]

Too Cool for School,,Cheers

[lrasile]

"He deserves it, I preserve it!" wow...nice vocal scream

[doedoetube]

One of the greatest and innovative bands of the last century! Thank goodness, their still with us! - Ed (age 50)

Yo People, this video rocks!! - Mena (age 7)

[jmm1000]

how the hell could something this ahead of its time and twisted come out of a small georgia town?

those wilsons are NOT of this world.

[JRL10040]

Nice pickin', Kate.

[Grygazol]

I think this is the least animated I have ever seen Fred. He almost looks bored.

This song sounds GREAT though!

[ronhelf]

most innovative guitarists of the late 70s and 80s, imho, Ricky Wilson and Bob Mould...

[bassplaya86]

Play it load. (On the LP's).

Never again ..... Thanks!

[steelcitystrings]

I believe Ricky died at 32yrs of age;based on my bit of research. Ps..(thanks TY). At any rate it's a sad loss! Peace; D>

[steelcitystrings]

K Mills now I think I have the whole concert thanks to you! Never saW THESE ,THIS SONG YET . uNTIL i FOUND YOUR SITE..tHANX SO MUCH.......pEACE d>

[imabimbo66]

I love how Kate is the blonde and Cindy is the brunette!

And there ought to be a constitutional amendment against these guys getting older!

[CovertCFC]

LOL, you're right. I wish Cindy in particular was still like this.

[jackhillty]

I think there needs to be a constitutional ammendment which will order Kate Pierson to play guitar.

[marvelboy74]

It's rare to see her strap one on. But it does really show that they are all amazing musicians.

[blackknightrockband]

i dunno mate!!!..she may have done a few videos with her girlmates...coulda strapped one on then!!!! lol

B-52's are magic!!!

[isfd24]

Grandioso, this is psicodelic rock!

[missteel]

Actually Ricky was 32 years old when he passed away.

[gregrocker2]

No other band would play when the B's came to town because they wanted to go hear the new hybrid grunge surf sound Ricky created. Few have had such an influence, yet he was dead at 25, one of the first famous people to die of AIDS. They are equally talented as the girls apply ingenious synth effects to voice, while Keith picked up Ricky's guitar as he died.

[Sandycheeks1968]

A chick playing guitar is so way cool! This band kicks ass!!! They will go down as one of the BEST in HISTORY! Truly talented folks! WOW!

[jedendwatrzy]

Awesome song! One of my faves from the first disc! Thanks for posting all these, man.....I can't get enough of the B's!

[westlife13]

my heroes

classic

[SharkSport]

lets eat at the Varsity! Is this Kelly Mills???

[kmills74]

downtown or junior?

[dynamo0]

Great song, I got their very first CD. These B's from the seventies were very punk, Kate playing an SG!!!

[AlembicPreamp]

I think I'd like to have Kates's white SG even more than Buck Dharma's ;-)

[EpicWINNER1000]

@dynamo0 I miss their punk/grunge style...too bad it only lasted for the first albums. Thanks for posting.

[ninesquared]

YEAH! best song on the album and an overlooked classic of American rock!

[HumGuitar]

Play that guitar, Kate! This is AWESOME!

[revmor]

love love
