Does anyone have a list of all of the Beastie-related books?

I'd also appreciate recommendations and analysis of the books you have read, and if they sell them at all bookstores.

I just finished reading Beastie Boys: Two Decades of Commentary, which is a good source for early reviews, but many of the people they contact for interviews have personal vendettas against the Beastie Boys. They also spend an extensive amount of time talking about the Sonic Youth, which is good, but I didn't buy a Sonic Youth book, I bought a Beasties book.

Any help?

The best book I've read was specifically focused on Paul's Boutique. It came out last year and there is a thread around here on it. I highly recommend picking it up.

Above is a link to a section we've put together regarding Beastie Boys books. I need to finish reading Def Jam, Inc. and once I do...we'll get that one added in there too.
