Mesopotamia is an EP by new wave band the B-52's. It was produced by David Byrne of Talking Heads and was originally planned to be the band's third studio album. Due to conflicts with Byrne and record label pressure, recording sessions were aborted prematurely and only six of ten songs to be completed were released as a shorter than originally intended LP. The record was distributed as a 12" EP by Warner Bros. in the US and by Island Records on vinyl and cassette in the UK and other non-US markets.

This article treats the music of Ancient Mesopotamia. Instruments of Ancient Mesopotamia include harps, lyres, lutes, reed pipes, and drums. Contemporary East African lyres and West African lutes preserve many features of Mesopotamian instruments (van der Merwe 1989, p. 10).

The conceit of this collection is that a bunch of blues musicians have been gathered together to pay a kind of tribute to the Beatles, some of whose music has roots in the blues, by playing some cuts from The Beatles (which just about everybody refers to as "The White Album"). Hmm. The album gets off to a bad start with a ponderous, leaden, dragging version of "Why Don't We Do It in the Road?," performed here by a group called "Jimmy Thackery and the Drivers. The CD closes with a pleasant but forgettable instrumental rendition of "Dear Prudence" featuring harmonica man Charlie Musselwhite and Colin Linden on guitar. So there you have it-some good cuts, some OK cuts, some so-so cuts, and one or two real stinkers. For the Beatles completist, The Blues White Album may be worth a listen, but for most listeners, I doubt it would prove to be a keeper.
