Jp: You do realize that knowing who the Beastie Boys are dates us horribly, right?
I just had an “oh, shit” moment when it hit me that “License to Ill” came out in 1986. Yeah, 1986.
I should go out and buy some Depends or something.

You just made me feel REALLY old now.. I remember Fleetwood Mac’s Tusk album and Pink Floyd’s ‘The Wall’ album(s). Then of course there is Alan Parson’s Project and Emmerson Lake and Palmer. I didn’t pay much attention to the Beastie Boys. All of these predate the Beastie Boys.[/quote]
That would have been 1979, right? That was my first year of high school (shit!) and I remember “Tusk” and “The Wall”, along with Tom Petty’s “Damn the Torpedoes” and Michael Jackson’s “Off the Wall” (not for me, but this girl I was seeing LOVED that album). I also remember the Ramones (“It’s Alive”), AC/DC (“Highway to Hell”) and Foreigner (“Head Games”) and an up-and-coming group out of the UK called The Police.
