Yeah, the Beastie Boys sampled the Dead Boys (1977) version. The song was first played by Rocket From the Tombs a few years earlier but never professionally recorded or released. Two members from RFTT went on to be in the Dead Boys, which is why they play it.
@AccountForWhat Dunno why you're comment got flagged o___O Anway, thanks a lot for the info, I never heard of Dead Boys. Gonna go look for them now! Cheers!
@hisshi Yeah it is, but its from the original version of this song by The Dead Boys. Makes since considering The Beastie Boys started off as a punk band.

I miss the days when you could smoke in a bar or anywhere for that matter, punk doesn't seem the same without the blue haze hanging in the bar.

Man, I almost prefer Hugh's version to the dead boys.

Hey... wait. Isn't the guitar part from 00:35 to 00:44 used as a sample in Beastie Boys' "Open Letter to NYC" ?
