Classic Album Sundays is the world’s most popular listening experience and Kansas City is now part of this worldwide series. Classic Album Sundays provides an immersive experience where you will not only hear the story behind the album but will also hear it in a way you never have before on world class hi-fi equipment.
The Beastie Boys released their second album ‘Paul’s Boutique’, produced by legendary hip-hop gurus The Dust Brothers in 1989. Noted for being created almost entirely with samples (something out of the ordinary for the time), the album was a commercial flop on release, with label Capital Records actually going so far as to stop promoting the album halfway through it’s original run. Since then it has gone on to be a huge fan favourite and an album we get requested to feature on a regular basis. Journalist Robert Christgau commended them for “bearing down on the cleverest rhymes in the biz” and commented that “the Beasties concentrate on tall tales rather than boasting or dissing.”
Sure to be hugely popular event with customers and crew alike, demand is already high, so please make sure you get your tickets early!
Join us for Sunday lunch, order a pizza, maybe a beer, and listen to music that either inspired or was relevant to this classic LP, then the lights go down, the volume goes up and we play the featured album from beginning to end on vinyl over a world-class sound system. You won’t believe what you can hear!
