Listen: Beastie Boys Return With Organ-Driven Funk on 'Make Some Noise'
Phil Andelman

"Make Some Noise," the first single from the Beastie Boys' long-awaited new album Hot Sauce Committe, Pt. 2 leaked to the internet yesterday, which led the band to share the song on their official Tumblr. The track is anchored by a chunky, overdriven organ part, but the beat is loose and groovy like the best of the trio's Nineties material. "Make Some Noise" will hit digital stores on April 11th and will be available as a seven-inch single on Record Store Day on April 16th.

“Is It True”

Brenda Lee | 1964

As the British Invasion reached its peak in 1964, Brenda Lee went from Nashville to London to record one of her hardest-rocking hits, her perky vocal backed by a stuttering, squalling guitar. That guitar was played by session musician Jimmy Page, yet to skyrocket to fame with first the Yardbirds and then Led Zeppelin. "She said to me, 'I've come here to make a record with the British sound,'" remembered producer Mickie Most. "She felt she wouldn't get the same sound in Nashville because they're only just catching up on the British beat group sound of about six months ago."
