Norman’s Cook’s second album under the ‘Fat Boy Slim’ moniker was released with much commercial expectation, as the debut FBS album only gave one minor hit in ‘Everyone Needs a 303’ but after first single ‘Rockafella Skank’ hit the top five, people started to take notice. Unlike many of his contemporaries in dance / big beat Norman actually realises the importance of a memorable, catchy chorus and this is more than evident on over half the tracks present. The album as a whole, though, works very well with each track working its way into the next seamlessly and with an overall dynamic added to the album as a whole, rather coming across as merely a collection of assorted tracks, another fault obvious in many other DJ’s albums. A very inventive use of old and new samples works brilliantly, and encourages you to find out the originals to see just how much Norman has changed them. A great collection, and definitely recommended to all fans of big beat, whether a fan or dabbler.
