If you can get the globes off you might be able to hold the socket while you unscrew the bulbs base with either a pair of pliers or screw driver in the bulbs base. Just make sure you are working with a dead circuit.
I guess I wasn't too clear on this, It is the socket that is loose. When you try to unscrew the bulb, the entire socket turns and actually comes out, being held only by the wires. I checked online and it says to remove the fixture entirely, then take it apart, remove the wire from the old socket and rewire a new socket, then replace the fixture at the ceiling. I was hoping there was a way to do it without taking the fixture down. This is the one in the kitchen, 15' ceiling, I've no idea if it's as heavy as it looks but not something I want to test. We really need this light and several of the bulbs are out now.
