Beastie Boys Check Your Head Tracklist Poster

The album originally started out as a jam-heavy instrumental work, where the Beasties refamiliarized themselves with their instruments MCA on bass, Ad-Rock on guitar and Mike D on drums, with an odd assortment of session hands including carpenter/keyboardist “Money Mark” Nishita and percussionist Juanito Vazquez. Most of the album was built with an then-unconventional self-sampling approach, where live instruments were cut up and reassembled from numerous takes, arising from ideas that spontaneously transmogrified and shot into different directions.

In combining that approach with the overdriven, semi-lo-fi, blown-out production, it proved that the Beasties could find a new tack on their sonic workmanship without needing a Rick Rubin or some Dust Brothers to guide them.

Still, it’s a bit of a mishmash: sublime moments like the hallucinogenic peace-and-love dub of “Something’s Got to Give” and the inspired weirdness of Sly & the Family Stone’s “Time for Livin'” gone near-unrecognizable as hardcore punk have to share room with tracks that either sound a little too sloppily anything-goes or come across like half-formed funk jams with great percussion, slinky Hammonds, not much else.

Maybe Check Your Head doesn’t hit the same rap-geek nerves that Licensed to Ill or Paul’s Boutique did, but let’s look at it this way: It was a worthwhile experiment that resulted in some vital music. The Beastie Boys knew that Paul’s was finding appreciation as a cult album, but they couldn’t recapture its feeling, not after its commercial failure left them practically forced to take a new tack.

Making that approach a smaller-budget, DIY/punk mutation of everything they’d tried along the way and starting from the ground up as a band rather than a crew of MCs was an inspired idea.
