Fun fact: the only member of the Beastie Boys who actually attended Stuyvesant High School was Kate Schellenbach, founder and drummer for the hardcore band, fired as they became a hip-hop group. Also, we all wished they still had these Stuy Phys Ed shirts in 1986, but instead we had white ringers.

So when this came out, I was on the quiz bowl team at my high school and we wrote an alternate lyric version called You Gotta Fight for Your Right (to Study) being who you are, without apology, is the most punk thing you can do

39 years ago today Licensed to Ill is the debut studio album by the American hip-hop group Beastie Boys, released on November 15, 1986 With this album, the Beastie Boys (to my dismay) completed their transition from hardcore to hip hop. You gotta fight for your right (to party) #punkrockhistory

Pure pop Adam Ant where he was completely unstoppable. Prince Charming was more than a pop song it was the first video event. Ant Rap was a remarkable thing for someone like Adam to take on yet he nails it for me although I know it's not for everyone. All in 1981. Imagine a world without Adam Ant...

"I really loved the Ants & we did something special. We had a ball & we pulled it off. But it went wrong thru overwork & too much pressure. We allowed ourselves to dive in & do a 2nd album too quickly after Kings." - Stuart Leslie Goddard aka #AdamAnt

1973. En España aún gobernaba Franco y mientras esta gente ya vivía en el futuro.

It's truly a shame he went down the pop path, as the early Adam and the Ants stuff was excellent punk rock. music.youtube.com/watch?v=kZgw...

Cracking album. Here’s a brilliant performance on The Old Grey Whistle Test of my favourite album track ‘Jigsaw Feeling’. That Banshees lineup of John McKay, Steven Severin and Kenny Morris 🎯👌🔥🔥🔥 #SiouxsieAndTheBanshees #punk #MusicSky youtu.be/zmu9YF9YZ3E?...

After a 2-year campaign following their debut at the #100Club #Punk Festival, #SiouxsieAndTheBanshees finally released their 1st album The Scream. A "claustrophobic abyss of angst and angularity" it was an almost instant commercial success, peaking at #12 on the UK albums chart.

What a massive band. I saw them that same year.

The how, what, where is lost in the mist of time! A rare find in the small city, deep in the Southern Hemisphere, where I grew up, but here it is some 40 years later!! One of my faves!

"I think of #punkrock as more of an idea than a genre. ....I didn't have a grandma who like, left me a trunk full of shit. Always wanted to leave that trunk full of shit for someone else. Feminism created a family structure for me." #HappyBirthday #KathleenHanna #BikiniKill

First & second pressings. Also own it on CD and in ‘The Unboxed Set.’ You could say I like this one

I fell in love with her INSTANTLY & SO HARD when I saw her on that Sonic Youth video. And when I found out about everything she did as a punk rocker & activist, I loved her even more

Where I first learned that poetry and rock and roll music can go hand in hand.

the album directly responsible for my journey into music journalism. top 5 favorite album of mine. just a simply unimpeachable record

Man just a couple years too late to be included on the Voyager 1 golden record maybe next time
