Give Me Back My Man is an ace tune, one of the Beef’s best. I’m sure Foxx The Cheekbones would have been reet choofed to have played on it thy knows. Funny, on the LP covers the drummer looks like Al Jardine’s better-looking brother.
Between this and Lava, I find in an OUTRAGE that they had to wait ten years to get a proper big hit with Love Shack.
The big stumbling block with the B-52s, as regards acceptance by the public of the day, was Fred Schneider’s tune-free voice. Everything else about them was perfect pop for it’s time.

Nice YouTube clip, mind

Fred’s a killer weed. He’s a rotten tough-nut.
