The band quickly earned support slots for Bad Brains and Reagan Youth at venues such as CBGB and Max's Kansas City, playing at the latter venue on its closing night.
That same year, the Beastie Boys recorded the 7" EP PollywogStew at 171A studios.
John Berry left the group (later forming Thwig) and was replaced by Horovitz, who had previously played in the punk band The Young and the Useless in 1983.
It was one photo from a fairly large series which were taken for what was going to be the first full length Beastie Boys album on Ratcage Records, with Polly Wog Stew having on been an EP.
The deal with Southern was that John Loder could finish selling all the remaining copies of Polly Wog Stew and Cooky Puss since it was not worth the expense of doing a recall.
That is why it is possible today that you may still find the compact discs for Polly Wog Stew and Cooky Puss for sale in some out-of-the-way place.
