Later this week, we’ll celebrate 30 years of Paul’s Boutique. The Beastie Boys have already kicked off the celebration.
The B-Boys have 21 tracks from that era ready for release, tracks that fall into the “B-sides and rarites” categories. There will also be remixes.
The first batch of tracks hit last week by way of two EPs: An Exciting Evening At Home With Shadrach, Meshach And Abednego and Love American Style. Dig into those below, then prepare for more on July 26 and August 2.
