nice find Martijn. The similarities are very interesting.

[Thunder D]

Wow, great find! That's got to be were they got the idea. I would assume that was a thrift store find from Horovitz!

[Brother McDuff]

fuck yeah! awesome find. i wonder if they lifted this idea as a joke, or if they were actually taken by the idea. i highly doubt they are paying homage to ole Billy Ocean. it's hilarious either way, and it's great to finally have a reference for such a strange cover. (y)

[Bernard Goetz]

That's great. I think you can remove the question mark from the thread title!

[acamus]

[mkvl3]

Awesome! Billy Ocean's City Limit album.. I might have to go buy it on LP just for the cover now...

Horovitz got to have the Billy Ocean spot!

[laurie_hammy]

So maybe Billy got the idea from the JB's then Beastie's got the idea from Billy

[mickill]

I actually have this record, but I don't think I would have ever actually noticed that.

[Kid Presentable]

This is the winner.

[romanpetr]

and Our Beasties in the fresh future!:cool:
Great find,Martijn!;)

[b-grrrlie]

Well, if they can sample music, they can sample artwork as well!
Good find, Martijn!

I think the boys are on an escalator which makes this even more hilarious to me. Great find, I love this cover. So random and funny.
