I remember dancing to <em>License to Ill</em> at my 5th grade graduation dance (Also: Genesis). I also remember being in college my senior year and realized that the freshman weren't even in elementary school when <em>License to Ill</em> came out.

“i found a nice place to visit…”"…but a better place to rob”
“spent another night at the motel 6…”"…it’s 5 dollars extra to get the porno flicks”

“looking down the barrel of a gun” is devastating, and had a great psychedelic slo-mo surf video to boot”
“ultraviolence!” “be running through my head…”"cold medina!”"making me see”"red!”

They were the first group that my hip-hop loving brother and I bonded over, and the reason I let him introduce me to the Wu. I love <i>Paul's Boutique</i> for "High Plains Drifter" alone. The vocal cadences just blew me away the first time I heard it. "Looking Down the Barrel of a Gun" comes in a close second. I used to listen to it before my field hockey games to get into the zone, and it still gets me revved up to this day. Thanks for postin this; I enjoyed looking back, too.
