Found this:

I don’t think the Beasties ever sampled the Beach Boys, which is surprising. Guess they’re bigger Beatles fans?

side note. you might already know this anecdote (dont remember how big on byrds you are) but this is hilarious about how McGuinn just decided one day to change his name to Roger

"McGuinn became involved in the Subud spiritual association in 1965 and began to practice the latihan, an exercise in quieting the mind. He changed his name in 1967 after Subud's founder Bapak told him it would better "vibrate with the universe." Bapak sent Jim the letter "R" and asked him to send back ten names starting with that letter. Owing to a fascination with airplanes, gadgets and science fiction, he sent names like "Rocket", "Retro", "Ramjet", and "Roger", the latter a term used in signalling protocol over two-way radios, military and civil aviation. Roger was the only "real" name in the bunch and Bapak chose it."

Anyone ever listen to the album Begin by The Millennium?

It’s an incredible album from 1968, has a lot of Brian Wilson vibes and sunshine pop melodies.

Randomly heard it playing in this somewhat upscale restaurant I was in the other day and was surprised because I never heard anyone else mention it at all...

and then followed it up with Toro y Moi
