The B-52's

"Good Stuff" was a transparent attempt to recapture the good vibes of "Love Shack." It didn't succeed, but it had its own charms, from the friendly beat to Fred Schneider's endearing vocal affectations. It wasn't great, but it did have the distinction of being the best single pulled from Good Stuff. Since it was released in 1992, when singles were released in seemingly endless permutations in both the U.S. and the U.K., "Good Stuff" was available in all sorts of incarnations. (If you want details, check out the single review.) Then there was the "Good Stuff" EP released in Japan. That contained familiar mixes -- the "12-inch remix," the "Schottische mix," "the remix edit" -- plus four versions of "Revolution Earth" ("Single Edit," "CO2 Mix," "Vibe Trive Version," "PPM Dub") and three versions of "Is That You Mo-Dean? ("Interdimension Mix," "Roots Mix," "Harpapella"). This is ideal for anyone who wants to collect all the non-LP mixes, remixes and edits on one disc, but the import price may be too steep for anyone besides hardcore fans, who will own all this stuff already. So, it's just a nice compilation and collector's piece that's just a tad too expensive. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
