According to a source at EMI/Capitol Records, the release date for the Beastie Boys's Hot Sauce Committee, Pt. 1 has been pushed back further. The label is now projecting a September 2010 release date.
Label reps recently met with John Silva, the band's manager, to discuss the album's status. Silva told the label that he "didn't see the album coming out anytime soon because of Adam." Apparently, Adam Yauch needs more time for recovery. Whether that means Yauch is not doing well or he simply wants more time off for personal reasons is unknown. Let's hope that it's the latter.

What?!?!?!
But I hope Yauch's doing well, too.
NOOOOO!! SAY IT ISN'T SO!!!!
This news bites.
It's been quiet lately. I had a feeling bad news was coming. I hope & pray the cancer didn't come back. Take care Yauch!
WTF??!! Please tell me Yauch is ok. I'm going to need anti-depressants soon to deal with this.
HOt Sauce - Is your source solid?
@Fittonia: The source is reliable.
This is disappointing news but not completely unexpected. We can wait a full year if we can wait 6 years for Hello Nasty. I hope Yauch is getting better.
Screw the wait for the album. It's our buddy Yauch who I'm thinking about.
My thoughts are with MCA.
I'm sad again. :(
I don't mind waiting longer if it means in September Yauch will have a hop in his skip when they do the weave.
its been quiet so this news is no surprise to me
Since Adam Yauch has been out in public for film events, he must be getting better. He probably needs more time to deal with the psychological effects of cancer. He deserves as long of a break as he wants.
I agree with Fittonia. Screw the album. Beastie Boys need Yauch to recover before they deal with anything else.
