Check Your Head and Pauls Boutique played at our little woodmeade parties while in school. Really good albums.
Paul's Botique is the album you're supposed to have as your favorite if you are a "true" Beastie aficionado, but mine is still Check Your Head.
Was at Hatteras one summer when a buddy brought his new wife & sister in law down. They stayed in a seperate house, but they showed up to fish on the beach with us one day. The wife was wearing a bikini. Swear to my name, I've never seen a thicker Ho Chi Mihn Trail from a belly button to the top of a pair of bikini bottoms in my life. I fought the instinct to start trying to pick hairs out of my mouth just looking at it. It was like a braille map to the promised land. Was really gross. True story. Volguy can vouch.
