The B-52's "Whammy!" (40th Anniversary) RSD Essential as long as they continue40th Anniversary Edition The B 52's were formed (1976) like R. E. M. in Athens, Georgia by vocalist Cindy Wilson, her elder brother guitarist Ricky Wilson (who died from AIDS in 1985), keyboardist and vocalist Kate Pierson and drummer percussionist Keith Strickland.
