Hello out there in TV land.
For those of you who fancy themselves fans of the legendary hip-hop production crew The Bomb Squad (or Public Enemy for that matter), I present a gift. If you're not familiar w/ the Bomb Squad, they're most notably known for producing Public Enemy's records and a buncha early solo Ice Cube joints (most notably the AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted album), among alotta other noteworthy artists.
Anywho, I came across this link on a blog to a radio show that once a year runs a 3 hour Bomb Squad Tribute program. A whole buncha classic and obscure beats by the Squad mixed and blended together. All instrumental. Shit's fire. Here's a link to the link. It's split into three parts.

Note: if you need a bit of convincing, just take Yauch's word for it:
"PE completely changed the game musically. No one was just putting straight-out noise and atonal synthesizers into hip-hop, mixing elements of James Brown and Miles Davis; no one in hip-hop had ever been this hard, and perhaps no one has since."
