iTunes Review

The Go-Go’s debut album, Beauty and the Beat, presented everything that was fun about new-wave rock ‘n’ roll in one sweet package. These are pop songs that are smart and savvy, tuneful and tough. “Our Lips Are Sealed” and “We Got the Beat” dominated radio, while tracks such as “Lust to Love” and “This Town” were bright and vibrant anthems of youth. This 30th Anniversary Edition includes a live performance from the Metro in Boston in 1981 that shows off the band’s rougher edges, their punk roots. Belinda Carlisle is in cheerful voice and guitarists Jane Wiedlin and Charlotte Caffey turn up the distortion and feedback to add an extra growl and bite. They include an enthusiastic cover of the Shangri-La’s “Remember (Walking In the Sand)” and throw in the B-side “Surfing and Spying” into the medley with “Beatnik Beach.” “Cool Jerk,” originally a hit for the Capitols, and “Vacation” are previewed from their next record.

I was there!!!

I was at this concert! It was my first concert and I was 11 years old. There was an early all ages show and a later adults only one. They stayed at the hotel my mother worked at and she got their autographs, which I still have. I remember it being an amazing show. It was right before they hit the big time, so the show was at The Metro, which is not a large venue. It's great to finally have this audio souvenir. The beauty and the beat album is amazing. One of the best of the time. My only issue is that I would have loved them to put the one b-side of the time, surfing and spying, as a bonus track!

One of the best...

This album is such a classic and I've literally waited YEARS for a remastered edition. The songs are timeless, the melodies are dead on, and I defy you not to sing along with every chorus. This album truly takes me back to one of the best summers in my life. What are you waiting for? Start downloading!

They got the beat!

This album is ahead of its time! Yes, this was recorded in the '80s, but the music will never age. These girls really know their stuff and it shows!!

The Go-Go's were the most popular all-female band to emerge from the punk/new wave explosion of the late '70s and early '80s, becoming one of the first commercially successful female groups that wasn't controlled by male producers or managers. While their hit singles — "We Got the Beat," "Our Lips Are Sealed," "Vacation," "Head Over Heels" — were bright, energetic new wave pop, the group was an integral part of the Californian punk scene. And they did play punk rock, even if many of their...
