Sorry, but I never could get into the Beastie Boys and their fake-ass wigger "schtick"- trying to play themselves off as "hard" and "street" never appealed to me.
@rayjr62 Blues Project rules but I think you are selling the Beastie Boys a little short. They've been relevant for atleast 20 years and don't forget the stuff they've done on other artist's projects. They experiment with every type of music
Too bad they never made it big. They definitely were one of those bands that were ahead of their time. In fact, Kooper had originally planned on adding a horn section to the band, much like he did with the original version of Blood, Sweat and Tears.
@Sargebri Watch their performance at the Monterey Pop Festival. At one point toward the end of their performance you see Al Kooper standing off to the side of the stage, watching his former band mates. I guess by that time he had already left the group.
@rayjr62 I forgot to mention that.lol. In fact, Kooper left the band two weeks earlier when he supposedly suffered a nervous breakdown after a bad LSD trip. However, not only worked as a volunteer stage hand, but he also performed a set with Elvin Bishop of the Butterfield Blues Band on guitar and Harvey Brooks of the Electric Flag on bass.
I can remember after getting this album from a friend laying on my bed night after night listening in the dark looking out the window at the moon until I fell asleep.....what memories
I was part of the GrenichVillage seen in the 60's what a grand time for music the culmination of which was Woodstock in 69. I think it's been downhill since then.
There doesn't seem to be anything new to rock heavy metal is just that heave and metal noting new except the screamers. They throw in a few Jimi licks or as best as they can copy him and the call it, must be a hundred genres and they aren’t so different it's all Heavy Metal or Punk or Pop Rock.
@TrueBlueSue49 the melody is based on a barney kessel record [phil spector wanted to be a jazz guitarist he wrote a letter to downbeat that they overlooked barney kessel in a poll they had they printed the letter barney met him thanked him advised him that jazz is too competative and that he might have an easier time doing rock music ]
This is great !
