I was about 20 when the Beasties came on the scene. I could never have predicted that 38 years later I'd consider them the most authentic band ever. They were true friends who stopped when they sadly had to and have done nothing to mess with their memory ever since. Total respect and the music is just pure gold. These guys get nothing but love for what they did together.

They started loud, mocking goobers that co-opted them. Hence Paul's Boutique and this glory.

Directed by Adam Bernstein, who went on to become one of the most successful directors in television. Capitol's investment in the Beastie Boys was substantial, and the sample-rich Paul's Boutique album was much more time-consuming and expensive to produce than had been forecast. Consequently, the label was driven to recoup their investment and wanted a video that would garner brainwash rotation on MTV from the outset, rather than a raw, hip hop style clip that would be relegated to 120 Minutes, the once-a-week , late night programming ghetto for rap and alternative music. While Licensed To Ill had moved nine million units for Def Jam and featured two hit videos, the perception three years later at Capitol was that the group's goofy party animal image was played out and needed a creative overhaul to reach a broader audience that would appreciate the quantum leap in sophistication of Paul's Boutique. There was concern that if the group controlled the development and production/direction of the video -- which was their inclination -- that it could become a financial runaway train that might subvert the label's imaging strategy. So after some prickly discussions, it was agreed that an outside director/production company would be brought in. I recommended Bernstein based on several factors. He had some hip hop cred, having directed videos for Public Enemy and EPMD, who had been labelmates with the Beastie Boys at Def Jam. He had displayed a deft sense of humor in his work for They Might Be Giants, and "Hey Ladies" had to be jam-packed fun. Finally, Bernstein had just wrapped "Love Shack" for The B52s, which was just breaking as an MTV sensation (it went on to win Video of the Year). The group reluctantly agreed on Bernstein, and a concept was developed with the band that mashed up the preposterous Rudy Ray Moore Dolemite blaxploitation movies with Saturday Night Fever, peppered with additional sight gags based on the lyrics. The wardrobe -- "I like that polyester look" -- was from Western Costume's collection of Sonny Bono outfits. MTV loved the video and hammered it until the single stalled disappointingly at #36 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Ultimately the Beastie Boys felt that the "Hey Ladies" video was more Bernstein's style than theirs, and subsequently Adam Yauch directed all their videos under the Nathaniel Hornblower pseudonym -- Nathaniel was his middle name -- until 1994's "Sabotage," which was directed by Spike Jonze. Mike D's girlfriend (later wife) Tamra Davis had co-directed Sonic Youth's "100%" with Jonze, who was known at the time for run-and-gun skateboard and dirt bike videos, which Mike admired. MTV gave Yauch's videos (which today are rightfully appreciated as classics) more limited hip hop rotations until "Sabotage," which broke wide based on the video's comedic appeal and earned five MTV Video Award nominations but no Moon Man statuette until it was recognized with a special award in 2009.

[@MR-cp4sj]

Who ever underrated it?

[@lmaxaudio3965]

@@MR-cp4sj It was definitely underrated when it was first released, which was kind of inevitable I think. It actually sold in what would have been fairly respectable numbers for most albums at the time, but when the previous album moved 9-10 million copies and ended up being the best-selling hip hop album of the decade then it's gonna be really hard to meet everyone's expectations. They obviously made the right move by doing something completely different rather than making Licensed to Ill Part 2 (which is probably what they would have been forced to do had they stayed at Def Jam). Probably wouldn't consider it underrated to day though, seeing as it's widely considered one of the greatest hip hop albums of all time (or maybe just one of the greatest albums period, regardless of genre).

This is an example of good sampling: using a small portion of a song to make something new, as opposed to getting a song, adding something small to it and claiming it as your own.

A song? I hear 2 more that they sampled. - Deep Purple's "Hush" when they walk in the disco and a line out of Ballroom Blitz - "She Thinks She's The Passionate One!" And then there's the Karate fighters - so 1970's! But yes, a far better use of the sampling than just using one song and changing the words to your own thing like they do now.

I was a teenager mowing lawns in the neighborhood and came into the house with a bullseye rash on my right upper arm. I showed it to my brother who said, oh that’s probably a tick bite, it’s nothing”. Almost nobody in Minnesota had heard of Lyme disease in the early 80’s.

[@JohnSmith-mk1rj]

I would say that Paul's Boutique is like, a 'cult classic' now, but I can't. Cuz it's actually Double Platinum now, and Rolling Stone has it at #156 on their 'Greatest Albums of All Time' list. I bought this joint the day it dropped, and I'll admit I wasn't really feeling it at first. It lacked the teenage antics and rebellious spirit of their first album, and the whole sampling thing was lost on me - I was way too young to appreciate the production. Over the course of the next few months it steadily grew on me, and I would the tape in my Walkman (the iPod of my day, and now even those are gone) to listen to one track or another that I liked, and it was amazing even in those cheap headphones. Before I knew it, Paul's Boutique had crept into my daily rotation for the subway ride to school or wherever. Later, it entered my 'albums I would need if I was trapped on a desert island' list. I kinds think maybe the rest of the world adopted Paul's Boutique in the same manner, since it sorta flopped upon release, but slowly but surely it became a 'must have' for anyone who loves great music. And this album bangs, from beginning to end, and at this point it's my favorite Beastie Boys joint. And yes - I would still need this record if I was trapped on a desert island.

LOL we picked up a cowbell somewhere and hung it from the rear view mirror in my partner's hooptie 1974 Cutlass Supreme...So when we played the this, whoever was riding shotgun was on cowbell duty... had to play the cowbell along with "Hey Ladies!" 😻 So, the single had came out in early summer 89 with the "Paul's Boutique" album to be released shortly afterward. OHHHH I wanted that album SOOO bad! Every single day I would call Spud City Records to ask if they had my album in yet. Every day , same thing: "no man, not yet...ill call you when it's in!" *click* DAMMIT MAN....this mofo is lying to me...I just know it. So I started driving down there in person, every day, just so he couldn't "lie" to me lol...I think somewhere in June 89 it arrived...I bought the vinyl LP AND the cassette...I FLEW home and started listening to the cassette on my Walkman all day...that night took 2 hits of LSD and melted into my big comfy couch listening to that amazing album all night long, just trying my brain. Such a great album! Every time I listened to it, I would hear something that I missed the last time. That tape stayed in my car stereo all summer long! It was so different too. All the mainstream folks that loved "You Gotta Fight For Your Right" HATED Paul's Boutique. That was fine with me...they couldn't understand why PB didn't have all those "really cool!" drunken party songs like "Girls" and "Fight For Your Right" which were fun "Budweiser puke-fest songs" that all the high school kids loved, but "Paul's Boutique" to me is their best work ever...20 years ahead of its time and to me is the "true" Beastie sound.

I wore out two cassette albums in a row of Paul's Boutique I listened to it so much... Pretty much non-stop '89-'90, in a 1976 Pontiac Grand Prix to boot!

I graduated in 91. This song and album were a sleeper, but if you know, you know!!
