I saw the B-52s open for the Talking Heads that year, and I just couldn't BELIEVE what a wonderful, retarded racket they made. Rushed out and bought the record. "London Calling" was another record that changed how I looked at rock and roll.

Start to finish, London Calling is the best album even made.

The music of 1979 pretty much makes the music of 2009 look like cat puke.

I own way too many of these for a man my age.
