Funky Beasties Bring the Kangaroo Rat

Suited up and feeling funky enough for Friday, here's a couple clips from the Beastie Boys, a band I just remembered I love more than any other band. Why? Aside from their music and yaddi-yaddi-yadda, see Mike D's Jew-fro below. <3 Much love, Boys! 
"Kangaroo Rat"
As a Beastie bonus here's "Suco de Tangerina," a video not so much in the vein of funk but I'm sharing it now because I just stumbled upon it. The suits, the hair, the martinis, to die for.
Anyone got a funky song that the Beastie's have sampled?

I know they sampled Sonic Reducer by the Dead Boys on one track :-)
and i can name that beastie boys tune! "An Open Letter to NYC"
....right?
You got me Brittany...never was a big Beasties fan, but some things caught my ears over the years, and when I heard the Sonic Reducer sample my ears were ringing :-)
yeah it's pretty obvious sample in the song but i never knew the full version. thanks for posting that vid. i'm air-guitaring along to his lesson, hah. i'm gettin' GOOD!
Happy Friday to you too B. Have a great w/e! Got the lovely flu here so my w/e is going to be full of recuperating. I hate being sick damnit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that video was great, loved the good fellas vibe of it, just wish they would have gotten to where they were going!
What is this funk you speak of? I like it. Soothing to the eye and ear.
There's no real "video" of the tune, and the live ones that are out there are pretty poor quality, but here's the original tune :-)
august, ick, being sick is no fun at all. i hope you feel better soon!
rawk, i just came across the videos they made for The Mix Up. I love it when they dust off their suits.
cody, happy to share something new to you.
garage, that's a rockin song. thanks for posting the original here!
.....and now it's back to watching BBC's Planet Earth for me. ah, saturday...
I'm late in seeing this post---but thanks for the vids! I'm a long time Beastie Boys lover!
as long as the videos are up and running, you're not late! :)
happy to hear you enjoyed these couple of videos, andrea.
