- "Sampling," the recording-studio craft of borrowing other
- people's music, has been raised to an art form by the BEASTIE
- BOYS. Paul's Boutique is the first album by MIKE DIAMOND, ADAM
- HOROVITZ and ADAM YAUCH since their 1986 rap hit Licensed to
- Ill, and they not only purloin sounds but ransack culture and
- drop almost enough names to rival ANDY WARHOL's diaries. Writers
- J.D. SALINGER, JACK KEROUAC and CHARLES DICKENS have a place,
- as do PHIL RIZZUTO and CEZANNE. And don't forget HARRY S TRUMAN
- -- he is rhymed with ALFRED E. NEUMAN.
