I just went to Best Buy to get my first and only Jay-Z album because he finally made a song that is worth buying an album. On my way out, I stopped by the Beastie Boys spot just to see if there was like some weird import in or something, and there WAS an album that I had never heard of. It's entitled "Tribute to the Beastie Boys." When I saw it, I knew that it wasn't made by the B-boys, and it was actually recorded in Minneapolis. But, being the sucker I am...plus I was curious, I bought it. Just as I suspected, three guys attempted to reproduce the Beastie Boys, and covered 10 songs. It would be decent, but they obviously don't have any mixing skills and there is no bass to speak of. The vocals are actually really good, although the dude doing MCA's part is pretty weak. I give it a "C." Don't buy it...but if you want to listen to a track or two, talk to me.
