About
Wild Planet is the second studio album by the B-52', released on August 27, 1980. As with their first album, the B-52's traveled to Compass Point Studios in the Bahamas to record Wild Planet. Several of the songs from the album had been concert staples since 1978. The band deliberately did not record them for their first album because they had too many tracks and wanted a strong second album, knowing that performing the tracks live would make fans look forward to it. Rhett Davies co-produced the album, and more emphasis was put on production for Wild Planet. It was very well received by critic, most of whom regarded it as a strong second album following the success of their first. Wild Planet was quickly certified gold. .
