October 8, 2005 | | guys like this should stay in the studio | |
people like mr. cook are at their best when they have a studio at their disposal and their worst when they have to perform live with no over-dubbing or gimmicks. i was fortunate enough to be given this disc by industry insiders and if i'd spent my own money on it, i'd have been severely disappointed.
the sleeve has all the pap you'd expect from label promoters, talking about how unbelievable and amazing the night of spinning was; but all i can think is, "have you actually *listened* to this disc?"
it's not great. it's not even that interesting.
i heard the fatboy spin live once, and my reaction to that performance is the same as this: if he works on something in a studio, and takes months to do it, he's one of the best in the world.
with two turntables live, he's just another hack.

March 7, 2005I bought this CD 5 months ago in an impulse. I just saw it on the shelf, and since I had recently started to love electronic music and had heard so much about Fatboy Slim,, I decided to buy it and try out my musical interest. The first impression I had wasn't a very good one, but that was before I actually developped my love for electronic music. However, after some days, some songs started to make me move, and i realised that the CD was awesome. The beginning is excellent, with the hybrid Born Slippy/Right here, Right now, which is the perfect opening for this kind of CD, it gives you the impression that you should get ready. Then follows Austin's Groove which is one of my favorites, among The Groovy Thang, The Real Life (I love that one) and Where's your head at?. I would have taken some songs out of the list, but none of them are bad at all; it simply makes perfect harmony. I think that the moment after Where's your head at? where the police start chasing people off the water should have taken out, and i would also complain about the pops and clicks in the CD, but that's because it's a live recording off vynil and can't be avoided. I seriously recommend this CD, because I don't regret at all having bought it, and it's always on top of my CD stack.
