The Beastie Boys - The Mix-Up

You nailed it, Jeff. While most of us are just happy that the B-Boys didn't influct '5 boroughs - the return' on us, The Mix-Up succeeds by being relaxed, breezy, and fun. Still, having said that, I'd have been mucho annoyed if this had been their follow-up to, say, Check Your Head. As it is, here's hoping this is their beachhead, and the 'real' album isn't long in dropping.
