35 years ago today...Paul's Boutique

[Big BosskMan]

The Beastie Boys dropped Paul's Boutique, an album so densely packed with samples and beats from The Dust Brothers, it would be near impossible to reproduce today.

I remember buying this on cassette (blue plastic to be precise) in an independent video store in my hometown.

It took a couple listens to get an ear for the songs and rhymes but it quickly became one of my favorites and remains such to this day.

I was 15 when it came out? Damn I thought I was a bit younger.

But yea by then knew the one record store in Moss Point could get anything and didnt care if it had a Tipper Sticker or not. YOu had the cash and the old dude that looked a bit like Santa would sell it to ya.

Need to get a CD of it again. If it is still in print.

amazing album, i was a bit disappointed when they released deluxe versions of there albums PB got missed off the list, but yeah it would never get made again this due to the samples.

if you still have the Blue cassette tape it does got for a nice price now a days.
