Notes:

At this point in the group’s history, Licensed to Ill was just picking up steam with increasing sales and the Beastie Boys were quickly becoming a household name. MTV had taken an interest in the group and sat them down for this November 1986 interview to learn more about the band’s New York Hardcore roots. In addition to discussing the Beastie Boys earlier incarnation, Horovitz seized the moment and mentioned his first group The Young and the Useless. He proceeded to hold up the Real Men Don’t Floss E.P. and point out the picture of his friend and former band mate, Dave Scilken.
