NOTES:
DISCO CLASSIC ALERT!!! I understand that this wasn't DISCO, but it was the first real NEW WAVE song played in DISCOS. Still a popular song today!! That ROCK LOBSTER was so right, it came out just when the rebellious NON-DISCO fans, who went to DISCOS wanted something different. They got it. I can picture the dancers falling to the floor as the B-52's sang,"DOWN, DOWN, DOWN". On the flip side there was PLANET CLAIRE, which at the time was just as big as ROCK LOBSTER, but didn't have the longevity. On my scale from 1-10, of course this gets a 10.
