And I'd have to add another name to the thread title! :mrgreen:

The thread has had a good run, fucker would have been ten next year. I'd love someone to jump in and keep it going but if they don't, hey ho. Thanks for your help in keeping it going though, Marky. :approve:

Ahh, here's a good one. Great singles but loaded with killer album tracks too. Will be interesting to see where people gravitate.

1. No Sleep Till Brooklyn
2. Fight For Your Right (To Party)
3. She's Crafty
4. Paul Revere
5. Hold It Now, Hit It

Really, only the painfully retrograde Girls doesn't hold up. One of the best albums ever, imho.

Rhymin' and Stealin' almost made my list. A great combo of hip hop and rock riffs.

I checked this out on vinyl from the local library and secretly made a copy in my bedroom because I just had a hunch I wouldn't want my parents to hear it. I was 10. I think I only knew about it because other kids in school were talking about it. It was my first introduction to music that felt dangerous and naughty.

I was obsessed with this album when it came out and was in love with all three Beastie Boys (finally, some not so nice Jewish boys - at least until the 90s). One of my all-time favorite concerts was the Rasing Hell tour with them and Run DMC - I had third row center. Anyway:

Brooklyn
Paul Revere
She's Crafty
Fight

Saw the Beasties along with Run DMC, police presence was overkill for the crowd, but I guess they didn't know what to expect. Kind of reminded me of going to some of the early punk gigs.

1. FFYR
2. Brooklyn
3. Crafty
4. Revere
5. Monkey

It's hard to convey how fucking popular Fight was at the time, but mainly with the kids that the song was satirizing. I don't know whether that makes the song a success or a failure. It's a prank the size that someone like Biafra never could have dreamed of pulling off.

Hey Flex if you are gonna put those brackets on the end then you better have them at the start. ;)
