Ad-Rock always liked to play cheap guitars live on-stage, including a Hondo, while in the studio it was usually the Paul by Gibson

Ad Rock has been loyal to old Hondo guitars and often used the one his mother first got him as a teenager. In the sabotage live on Letterman he can be seen playing a Hondo H-77 HSS strat copy. This had been mistakenly identified as a fender Strat previously but the Hondo logo can clearly be seen ...

Ad-Rock can be seen here playing a 1963 Gibson Melody Maker Double Cutaway guitar onstage at Live Earth at Wembley Stadium in 2007. The guitar was used primarily on the song Sabotage

At 3:05 you can see that, next to Ad-Rock's foot there is a DS-1 with a green sticker on the front of the effect.

I bought this on eBay for $200. It's a guitar with extra strings that vibrate to make a kind of sitar sound.

After nearly 15 years producing music on his trusty SP1200 workstation, Adam made a near instant switch to Reason after a recommendation of fellow Beastie Boy.

In the Beastie Boy Book, Ad-Rock tells the story of how he went to a music store with $250 in his pocket, intent on purchasing a new guitar, but saw, fell in love with, and bought the TR-808 instead.

Adam's pedalboard; Boss PH2, EHX Big Muff and Pulsar, Dunlop wah, Boss DD-3 (I guess), EB volume pedal and Boss TU2. It is all powered by a Dunlop DC brickEverybody loved “Sabotage” by the Beastie Boys right from the moment it was released. Eschewing some of the trappings of their more recent albums, the Beasties picked up some guitars and drum sticks and rapped over rock and roll. With Ad-Rock on guitar and lead vocals, MCA on bass, and Mike D on drums, the band proved they could pull it off live on Letterman in 1994.

Was one of the Beastie’s most successful albums thanks to “Sabotage”, entering the charts at #1. The track was used in an episode of Futurama, two Star Trek movies, and a Weird Al cover on American Dad.

Live on Letterman, filled out with record scratching and organ breaks, “Sabotage” really comes to life. The Beastie Boys always had a confident swagger, and they managed to maintain that vibe even when playing live as a band on national television. This version of “Sabotage” kicks!

The sticker on the front said it plainly:  “Only 8 songs. Only 11 minutes. Only cheap $.”  Retailers were known to jack up prices on CDs so the Beasties were proactive about making sure their fans didn’t get ripped off.  It’s kinda like how Metallica called their

(1998), the group spontaneously just started jamming out old school punk style rockers.  There were too many to put on their next rap album, so they decided to release them quick n’ dirty on a special EP.  And that’s

The Beastie Boys Perform In Philadelphia

What I find cool about it is that even if you didn’t know who it was, it’s immediately obvious on opener “Brand New” that it’s the Beastie Boys.  It doesn’t sound musically much like their mainstream hits but their idiosyncratic voices make it instantly identifiable.  Then you notice things like the noisy guitar “solos” that take the place of record scratches and samples (similar to “Sabotage”)…it’s a different instrument but the same artists so there is a connectivity.

“Deal With It” is the second-longest song at a whopping almost-2 minutes!  It’s a freakin’ crusher of a song.  “I Can’t Think Straight” reminds me of early Suicidal Tendencies. The rest are a mash of screamin’ Beasties, heavy guitar riffs, crushing bass, and sloppyfast punk rock drums.  Throw in a few weird breaks and time changes and you have a varied and enjoyable way to kill 11 minutes of your day.  The bass hooks are relentless and the lyrics all but unintelligible!

Best track: the hooky closer “I Want Some” which I think is hit quality. Fucking great song on which to close a fucking great little EP.

Mean?  Fortunately, I am Italian.  Aglio e olio is my favourite pasta dish, a simple spaghetti.  It is just the pasta in olive oil and garlic.  It is simple, delicious, and easy to prepare once you learn the trick of it.  Its appeal is the simplicity of just three ingredients: spaghetti, olive oil and garlic.  Three ingredients, right down to the basics.  Just like the Beastie Boys.
