Bouncing Off the Satellites is the fourth studio album by American new wave band the B-52's, released on September 8, 1986, by Warner Bros. (US) and Island Records (Europe, Japan). It was recorded in July 1985 and was produced by Tony Mansfield. It is the band's first release since the death of guitarist Ricky Wilson, who died of AIDS after most of the work on the album was completed, but a year prior to its release. The band had gone on hiatus by the time Bouncing Off the Satellites was released, and it took three years for the band to recover from Wilson's death and release their next studio album, Cosmic Thing. It is the band's final album to be recorded as a five-piece, as the band chose not to officially replace Wilson. Keith Strickland changed from drums to guitar and the band continued as a four-piece. Since then, the band has relied on various session/touring musicians to handle drumming duties.
