I was thinking this morning about MCA, and how his gruff voice would have transformed really well into old age.

The bass is that song though, ad much as the suspenders and mustaches.

I'm sure Yauch would rather these people spend some time reading up on Tibetan oppression or do a shift at a soup kitchen, but I'm not gonna deny people the opportunity to deal with his death in a way that makes them comfortable.

re: Sabotage not being Yauch enough--the video is the definitive Nathaniel Hornblower Production, so there's that

"Sabotage" video is credited to Jonze, not Hornblower (whereas "Sure Shot" is credited to both)

yeah, there's the misconception lately but it was definitely a Jonze video

When we were in Los Angeles, doing Paul's Boutique, he got this crazy apartment in Koreatown. And he made "A Year and a Day." What happened to the three of us together and all that crap? But I heard that track, and it was some heavy shit. He rapped his ass off. Adam bought a jet pilot's helmet, rigged it with a microphone and recorded the song wearing that helmet.

Love those interviews - there's one with Mike D too. Great that they pay homage to him (prompted by Fricke) by telling these little specific stories about tracks. It's easy to slip into the broad sweep when you're summing up a life but reading about something geeky, like how he made the beat for Paul Revere is so much more powerful to me.

Westwood posted this home video from the Raising Hell tour in London, and it is INCREDIBLE: Drunk Beasties, LL Cool J swapping the mic on Slow & Low, MCA stagediving straight onto the floor, Lyor Cohen diving after him to smack anyone who touches him, Russell Simmons rapping along with his head uncovered, LL AND LYOR DOING THE WHOP TOGETHER:
