![]() It’s just like something that I would have done as a teenager. I was just amazed that they we’re signing about crazy things like mentioned in the song “The Eggman”. It’s just an incredible album and with the amount of sampling, this album would cost millions to produce now. In my opinion, their sophomore album “Paul’s Boutique” is their best album. I didn’t get hooked on them until there follow up album. Since then I have the album and it’s a great album from beginning to end. I just got tired of hearing the song so much. This was when MTV actually played videos 24 hours a day. MTV played “Fight For Your Right” far too much. I discovered the Beastie Boys with the release of their debut album which I like it a lot more now than when it first came out. It wasn’t exactly clear to me back then, but it’s completely understandable why Black American’s we’re so political and are still completely pissed off at this Country now that I’m 50 years old! I can better understand the animosity of these bands and what they we’re doing with their “Art Form” at the time now more than I could as a teenager. I have complete respect for what they we’re doing and why they we’re doing it now as an adult! It’s a genre of music that I like better now as an adult and have come to love more in this divided world we are currently living in. It’s mostly because most of it was extremely violent and it seemed racially motivated by bands such as Public Enemy and NWA. Growing up in the 80’s, I was never a huge fan of Rap. "And your Mum threw away your best porno Mag", "It wasn't ", i use to love hearing that! and so i played it Hard as a 14 year old, now 46 and i still ain't forgiven my Mum for putting a Big Dirty Scratch through my 12" of Fight for your right to party! she hated that song and my wall was full of posters and newspaper clippings and when they Toured i remember having an article entitled "Lock up your Daughters as The Beastie Boys are coming to town", she ripped it off the wall and also Ripped up my Big Poster 5 foot long, and i also remember my mum asking me what i wanted for christmas, i told her a 4 pack of Budweiser, that was one of my happiest times at christmas, starting the day after 4 cans of Bud,and then onto the Spirits, i rarely drink now and it goes to show that the beastie boys did not turn everyone into a drunk party animal in their adult life, back when teenagers knew their limits and the only crime was stealing VW Badges off cars, it got so bad the company started giving them away for Free in the UK, real talk and history, Anyone who disses The Beastie Boys from when they was teenagers of that Era was nancy boys who liked Erasure, and i remember collecting all the 12" Records and the VW Picture Disc which some bastard stole! along with many other 12" and LP#s or EP's i had, those were the days before this era of MP3, music was mainly sold on Records, CD and Cassette, i am glad that Vinyl has made a come back but the days of finding great records cheap are getting harder to come by, i lived my life before my time as at 46 things are not the same and i believe in progression but Kids nowadays!, thus why they want the 1980's to come back, boy do i miss them days before everyone got distracted by mobile phones and Ipads, now my age is showing although already mentioned, as i listen to the music kids like and it is crap, i remember adults telling me the same thing!
