i have the HSC2 CD and the Sounds of Science Anthology on the IPOD auxillary in my car. it's nice to flip between eras and hear some Country Mike, old stuff, She's On It, Benny and The Jets, etc...
HSC2 is still very difficult to accept as the Swan Song.
every single MCA lyric has more depth, then and now.

Listened to CJ's soundcloud today on the beach on Oahu. At home, it was my personal mix of favorites-including Shadrach, Flute Loop and 3 the Hard Way. I love that song. Like someone said before, "I Don't Know" just pops in my head at some point in the day.

I have some of Beastie Boys mix tapes I made back in the day that I used to play non stop. One made right after Ill Comm came out, before I started DJing. It reminded me how deep I was into the Beastie Boys back then. The first one I did has all types of inteview clips, live banter, and whatnot from various TV appearances, the Beastie VHS tapes, bootlegs, etc.
The other one I did is all mixed together and has scratching. I made it right after Hello Nasty came out. By the way, Pass the Mic goes really well with Shame in Your Game!
It's definately been like a time machine going back and listening to those.

I still love the Boutique more then anything, and CYH is a better album, but good lord, the run of Sure Shot -> Tough Guy -> Freak Freak -> Root Down -> Sabotage -> Get It Together is just an off the fucking charts all-cylinders juggernaut of power.

I've always wanted to do this, but it's so hard to find the time. Curious, did you listen to the bonus discs for CYH, IC, and HN? I'm torn when/if I can actually sit back and do this if I'd listen to those as well.

It actually gives you some cool perspective on how the band's sound and styles evolved. Perfect for a road trip.
I didn't get into any of the bonus discs/b-sides/side projects etc (with the exception of the extra track on Hello Nasty because I randomly grabbed the Japanese disc). I probably have at least 4 hours worth of additional stuff. I'll have to save that for a 12-hour road trip.
