AND ONE MORE THING: The B-52’s will probably have an easier time replacing drummer Zachary Alford--who bolted to join Bruce Springsteen’s band--than founding member Cindy Wilson, who has left the band, at least for the time being.

At a New York Jerry Brown benefit, actress Kim Basinger stepped in. And on the album “Good Stuff,” due in stores on June 30, the group is backed on one song by a Hare Krishna chorus, while on the environmentally oriented “The World’s Green Laughter” Pierson is joined by a bobolink and a green-tailed towhee, with percussion by a red-billed woodpecker.
