Amazon.com essential recording: After the out-of-nowhere success of Licensed to Ill, the Beasties had to prove they were more than one-album wonders, and they hit it out of the park with this follow-up. The Boys' lyrics are a hysterical deluge of cultural allusion (Ponce De Leon, Sadaharu Oh, and Love Connection's Chuck Woolery all get name-dropped), compressed wordplay, and adenoidal snottiness, but the real stars are the Dust Brothers, whose production is a hip-hop landmark. Their music tracks sound like the history of rock and funk radio boiled down to a pure concentrate--monster jams built out of thousands of unexpected samples (Johnny Cash! The Sweet!). It's a killer party album, kinetic and dense, and it never slows down. --Douglas Wolk

Bury me with this one: it's the one I want to take with me into the Afterlife. My all time favorite. It doesn't get any better.

Respect to the Beasties for the courage to grow up. That said, however, this, their second album, was their creative zenith, at least as a straight hip hop crew. I'm obssessed with the song "high plains drifter" and am going to, at some point in my life, try everything mentioned in the song. I've already spent a night at the motel 6.....

This product was what I wanted.However, it took almost a month for me to get it. I ordered 3 other CD's at the same time and receievd them within two weeks. Good product, horrible shipping.

It's all been said before so I'll keep this short. But if you are interested and ANY kind of Hip Hop or modern funk/rock you need to own this album. No only is it an awesome album in and of itself, but it has grown into a classic of cultural proportions. It was a major influence on bands like Sublime and 311 who have in turn influenced countless bands themselves. It also proved that the B-Boys were more than just a white boy rap gimmick. Anyway, do yourself a favor and get in on modern music history.

The Beasties opened my eyes to an entire world of musical style and this album continues to be a pillar of my psyche. Buy it NOW listen to it on repeat, preferably with headphones.
