"Recommend me some Beastie Boys tracks"

I'll keep it short.

I want to download some Beastie Boys music. Can you recommend me some tracks, and if you can, please also include some short comment on each (or atleast your personal faves) songs you list here.

Thanks...

EDITED:

Of course I meant to go out and buy the albums, support your artists, etc.

But as a sampler, get "Sabotage".

You gotta fight for your right to party or sumthink is good

Root Down
Sabotage
Sure Shot
Super Disco Breakin'
Shadrach
Brass Monkey
Check It Out
Body Movin'
Jimmy James

Ah, I could go on.

Flute Loop

Their cover version of Start!, originally by The Jam is quite good. Alive is good too and all the ones already mentioned.

I think I prefer Fatboy Slim's remix of Body Movin' to the original.

If you want to get into their music, the best way is probably with the anthology collection 'The Sounds of Science'. It has the majority of their best songs and all the hits (about from those on the new album) plus some unreleased tunes and a nice booklet.

Then buy Paul's Boutique, Hello Nasty, and Ill Communication.

Saw them live in December and was amazed. Oh how I long to see them on the Reading lineup.

It's probably their worst song.

It was only after downloading "Sabotage" that I started this thread.

Treat it just like some "Best Beastie Boys Track" or "Best NES Game Ever" type of thread, and it would be a little more fun.
