- Edited 16 days agoBeautiful Clear vinyl, flat as a pancake, pretty good sound quality, slight background noise, and ticks here and there, but overall, very nice, I'd assume the black one is dead silent. Wonder how this compares to an og!
- I love reading this page with all the technological debate over the Matrix/Runout, which simply says, 'GET OFF MY DICK' 666. Um, this is the BEASTIE BOYS Come'on, LMAO. They must have foreseen this back in 87-88 with collectors hahaha!

This sounds phenomenal. Great dynamics and great bass. My only complaint is the terrible inner sleeve because it put a few surface marks on side 2. Luckily it is inaudible. Other than that it is awesome.- I absolutely love this cd and it changed my life! it was one of the 2 first cds I bought when I got my first cd player. and this was back when cd players first came out. they were clunky things that you plugged into your existing stereo. they were well over a $100. License to Ill and Black Flag's Everything Went Black were the 2 cds I bought with a gift certificate. there were no gift cards back then. there were paper certificates. I was reading the 'Beastie Boys Book' in quarantine, and I went to play this cd and needless to say, it skipped just about on all the songs. it's been awhile since it's listened to it, so I came on to Amazon to immediately get a copy. when I first put it on to play, I was thrown back to high school, listening to it on cassette (it was later that I would get it on cd format) in my room with my 'boom box' so close to my ear so that my mom couldn't hear it. I would soon listen to all my music that way. they showed and taught me that I just had to open my mind and there was all types of music out there. I will be forever grateful.
- Such an incredible Hip Hop and party record that can be played from start to finish without losing that partying beat. Certainly a difference between each sides sound quality as already mentioned below. Listening through large floor standing speakers and 3 SVS sealed subs, Side A is a 3.5/5.0 and Side B is 4.5/5.0 on overall dynamics and sound quality for me.

Found this promo copy at a local store a year ago in the bargain bin for $4. I don’t know what they were thinking but this sounds amazing, no pops no skips. Needed a clean but that wasn’t a problem.
