Yes,but the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame is a joke.It should be called the Pop music hall of fame or something similar.

Effing love the Beastie Boys....Pauls Boutique is in my top ten albums of all time...classic hip hop, lots of super tripping beats, sounds, and samples. Check Your Head another classic album from them as well...

Can't go wrong with the B-Boys, probably one of my top 5 all time acts.

I maybe saw the Beasties last live performance at Bonaroo music fes 2009 because of Adam Yauch throat concert. Hope he pulls through.

Paul's boutique is one of the greatest albums ever.

As far as hip-hop goes, it's got it all.

The intial standout tracks like Hey Ladies, Shake your Rump, Shadrach are obvious...but the meat and potatoes of the album are 3-Minute Rule, Car Thief, Looking Down the Barrel of a Gun, and the incredible 12 minute mix at the end...those tracks sets the drug-induced, experimental, retro-but ahead of time vibe that no other album has...perfect timing when release, right before hip hop exploded and the punk/grunge scene did the same.

An entire class should be devoted to breaking down Paul's boutique... just listen to Shadrach, and read through the depth of it from the lyrics, beats, samples, etc...

it's more than meets the eye.

The Beastie could rock it out too on some serious jams...this one came up on the ipod today and just had to go back and take a look on youtube:

YouTube - Beastie Boys - Gratitude

Especially nice they pay a little homage to Pink Floyd live at Pompeii Echos style

Hope so too so they can drop the Hot Sauce Committee Part 1 already!

Considering where they started with Licensed to Ill, it makes Paul's Boutique that much more amazing.

yeah agreed. When Licensed to Ill came out I wanted it so bad, but my parents had that on the "do not and will not buy list." I was 9 at the time.

Little fact about Licensed, first rap album to go number 1 on Billboard.

These poeple refuse to induct Rush but they let in the Beatie Boys.
