Book Reviews of The Beastie Boys' Paul's Boutique (33 1/3)
Book Review: Another Gushing 5-Star Review
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent, very quick read by a very enthusiatic Dan LeRoy. Up there with the best of the 33 1/3 books I've read. It's very obvious he did all he research, talking about things as diverse as their egging missions, problems with Russell Simmons, and a brief run down of each track.
Meticulously detailed and well worth it's price!
Book Review: Best in the Series
Summary: 5 Stars
Through bad luck, the first 2 books in this series I picked up were the ones on Prince's Sign o the Times and Radiohead's OK computer, which were boring, self-indulgent and wasteful. Dan LeRoy's book on Paul's Boutique, however, is a benchmark for the series. It's the best kind of musical journalism. Get it.Book Review: Righteous
Summary: 5 Stars
Good books on popular music are, frankly, few and far between. This is one of those precious few. Journalist Dan LeRoy has done a remarkable job of piecing together the details of the creation of this album. Even better, he has written an engaging story. It might be a cliche, but I couldn't put it down.Book Review: They should all be this good!
Summary: 5 Stars
LeRoy knocks it out of the park. This book is what all the other books in the series should be. It's packed full of interesting information about before, during and after the making of the album. It's a fun read. Quick and easy. No filler.Book Review: Excellent, informative, well researched book!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is the best source of information anywhere regarding Paul's Boutique.
Highly recommended!
