Very sad. One of the first albums I'd ever really, really loved was
Licensed to Ill. Strangely enough, I'd been listening to the Beastie Boys nonstop for the last few weeks.

Yeah, Licensed to Ill was my breakthrough album with them.
Sad day.

Me too, (that and appetite for destruction)....a cassette that was constantly played.

The Beastie Boys were a big influence on my love of Hip Hop, and the bass riff MCA did on Sabotage was blinding.

Gutted. Just read about it on here and checked the obit on the BBC website
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-17963855 .
Slow and Low, Sabotage, Pass The Mic - the Beasties stretched my musical taste probably more than any other band in the 80s and 90s with the possible exception of The Young Gods. Hearing
Slow and Low on Peel back in the 80s (B side to "She's On It" at the time) was one of those moments where you just stop what you're doing and ask "WTF is that ??". I bought it the next day. And
Sabotage is possibly the greatest musical visceral thrill ever, the aural equivalent of a bungee jump. A cartoon villains to the tabloid press, a musical pioneer to the cognoscenti. R.I.P.

Absolutely loved them around the time of Paul's Boutique and Check Your Head - they were one of the highlights at Reading that year.

Heard about this right when it was Breaking News & truly gutted.
Grew up on rock & hip-hop, they were one of the top bands in my younger years. Still really like them. So young.. condolences to his family & friends
