In a world gone mad, remembering MCA and all his goodness today

RIP MCA ❤️ August 5, 1964 – May 4, 2012

I can't believe it's been 10 years. I remember the moment I found out, and I went home and my mom hugged me and let me just cry. I miss you.

Today (July 25) is the 30th anniversary of this landmark album—the Beastie Boys’ “Paul’s Boutique.” This is my original pressing, amazingly still sealed with the hype sticker. I always believe that records are meant to be opened and played, but when I stumbled across this a few years ago, I felt the weight of history upon me to keep it as-is and intact. A commercial disappointment when it came out, the LP has gone on to become considered a classic and with good reason—it’s fun!
