Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential recording: With their third album, the Beasties transformed themselves from smart-ass punks with a hip-hop jones into a playful live funk band with some solid rhymes, assisted by the extraordinary keyboardist Mark Ramos Nishita. A couple of tracks look back to their old school rap roots, and they still deploy goofy samples like nobody's business, but they're mostly making their own grooves (including some instrumentals worthy of being sampled in their own right). Their universalist world-view results in some excellent, off-the-wall fusions--the metalloid bump that forms the funk pulse of "So What'cha Want," Sly Stone's "Time for Livin'" transformed into a hard-rock bomber--but they don't have to prove how clever they are any more, and they're stronger and more humane for it. --Douglas Wolk

You probally wouldn't expect much from The Beastie Boys after releasing Paul's Boutique. After all, it pretty much was a king of sampling, and there's no real way to top that album, especially since sampling wasn't going too well after the album being released. So instead of panicking, The Beastie Boys decided to employ their own beats more, and add some of their early rock influence, and live funk courtesy of keyboards.
It works, extremely well. Whether Mike D (that's my guess, ... Read More

The Beastie Boys' third album, Check Your Head, would reverse their commercial fortunes that happened with their best release, Paul's Boutique. Although now revered as a milestone in hip/hop, Paul's Boutique's sales were disappointing at first because it was such a departure from their beloved yet sophomoric debut, Licensed to Ill. Paul's Boutique was a quantum leap forward in both its raps and samples and Check Your Head would expand their horizons further.

There is not a single track on this cd which is not absolutely brilliant. It is a true masterpiece and listening to it always brings joy to my soul, even after listening to it literally hundreds of times over the years.

in my opinion, this album is their most energentic. After two albums of rappin' over beats, they finally dust off their instruments and jam out. At first, this was going to be just an instrumental/hardcore punk album, but good ol' Mario C convinced them to lay down some raps. This album really allows you to see the depth of the Beastie Boys. They've got some great hip-hop tracks (Pass The Mic, So What'cha Want, Stand Together), rock tracks (Gratitude, Time For Livin'), instrumentals (Something's Got To ... Read More
