Beastie Boys on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon"
> Posted by Kathy Bushouse on May 27, 2009 01:41 PM

Here's something that will make some of us feel old: 17 years ago, the Beastie Boys released "Check Your Head."

Now they've released a new collector's edition of the disc, with 16 B-sides (buy it now at www.beastieboys.com or at your favorite retail establishment). And on Monday, they went on Jimmy Fallon for an interview and to perform "So What'cha Want," along with house band The Roots.

Bonus video: The Biz, after the jump

I was first introduced to Biz Markie's excellent version of Elton John's "Benny and the Jets" on the Beastie Boys' "Anthology: The Sounds of Science." And by excellent, I mean very entertaining. So I wanted to share it with you.

I found this version from the Chris Rock Show on YouTube. Enjoy.
