B-52s - The B-52s

Boffo!

Not down with MOFI anymore posted on 10/25/2017 2 Stars Reviewer: SK52 This is the second MoFi pressing that I have bought recently and I was disappointed again. The first was Blood On The Tracks. Lacking clarity and some hi end, I have several vinyl lps that are original pressings that sound way better than these two from MoFi. I have other lps from MoFi that sound great. Unfortunately this is money wasted. IMHO

Time Travel Blast! posted on 11/06/2011 5 Stars Very nice pressing - quiet surface and fine detail. I was in 12th grade when this came out and I played the heck out of it. Hearing it again still makes me laugh and dance.

Audiophile Winner! posted on 04/02/2011 5 Stars Reviewer: RichardLeeDrums What a splendid release by MoFi. The vinyl is dead quiet, the dynamic stunning, the mids/bass are clear and punchy (as you would need from a B-52's record), and overall the record is crystal clear and the details very separated. I love this pressing!

A Classic Stunner posted on 03/07/2011 5 Stars Reviewer: audiofan55 These "Silver Label" releases are dead quiet and dynamic - the definitive version & the only way to listen to this classic without missing a note! Stellar! Can't wait for ELO's "Out Of The Blue".

Great LP posted on 02/23/2011 5 Stars Reviewer: pvk My first LP from MoFi's "Silver" series, and it won't be the last! Great quiet pressing and great audio quality. My new reference for this recording.

MoFi doesn't disappoint posted on 02/19/2011 5 Stars MoFi keeps their streak going with another great release. Dead quiet vinyl with mastering that gives the cd a run for its money. This tracks are classic B-52's - a fun, great sounding album. Recommended.
