Check Your Head (limited 180 gram remastered edition)
LP (Item 481766) Grand Royal, 1993 — Condition: New Copy
If Paul's Boutique was the Beasties mindblowing, Dust Brothers-dusted psychedelic hip hop Sgt Peppers, then Check Your Head is their down and dirty back to basics raw funk run at something like Never Mind The Bollocks. Their first outing without the guidance of an outside producer, though the trio did bring in ringers like Money Mark and Mario Caldato Jr, this set's a ride into a whole other mindset, still fueled by sunny So Cal vibes and the Beasties own take on rhyme science. It's hard to imagine an album that would produce so many anthems for true heads and the Lollapalooza crowd alike, but this is it. 20 tracks in all, including "Jimmy James", "Pass The Mic", "Gratitude", "Finger Lickin' Good", "So Whatcha Want", "Time For Livin'", "Something's Got To Give", "Groove Holmes" and "Professor Booty". (Features remastering overseen by the band – on 180 gram vinyl. Limited edition of 5000.) © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
