Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0017046624725 Format: Explicit Lyrics Label: Astralwerks Manufacturer: Astralwerks MPN: 66247 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Astralwerks Release Date: October 20, 1998 Studio: Astralwerks Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Norman Cook's bubble-gum techno songs--put out under a variety of guises over the years, including Pizzaman and Freak Power--are essential staples on any international dance floor. Fatboy Slim, however, is the former Housemartin's most successful incarnation, launching a Top 40 crossover hit and popular advertising jingle with last year's "Going out of My Head." You've Come a Long Way, Baby picks up where the smash single left off, cheekily pairing acidic synthesizers and drum machines with big, dumb vocal samples. It takes considerable effort sitting through an entire album of these energized tunes, but taken in small doses, songs like "The Rockafeller Skank" and "Soul Surfing" are like rays of sunshine. --Aidin Vaziri Album Description: Japanese edition of the 1998 & second album by Norman Cooke (a.k.a. Fatboy Slim) featuring 'The World Went Down' added as a bonus track, completely different artwork than the U.S.release & the hit singles 'The Rockafeller Skank' & 'Gangster Tripping'. 12 tracks total. A Skint Records release. The full title is 'You've Come A Long Way, Baby'. Album Details: Japanese Version featuring a Bonus Track: The World Went Down. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Everywhere Everywhere...is Fatboy SlimThe breakthrough album and zeneth of Fatboy Slim's Career. Tracks that integrated within all that was pop culture during the late 90's. From Adidas advertisements to the opening credits of clubber's cult classic, Human Traffic. Fatboy Slim was it...for a short but sweet time that rounded off the 20th century. He blew the sand off of Brighton Beach, and turned down Madonna when she asked him to collaborate on an album with her. Nice. Some tracks are annoying, but I still have three ...

From heartbeats to sunsets, coffee to cigarettes, and morning rituals to bedtime habits, many of us find something altogether soothing about certainty. Even those who like to mix it up can't deny that there are specific drives that require a sort of pounding regularity. Hell, just take a look at the basic mechanism of sex. Fatboy Slim co ...

Fatboy Slim creates great music for the mainstream, at the same time attracting critical acclaim and respect from people who actually have decent taste in music (as long as you aren't a MTV poser who likes The Rockafeller Skank for no reason, you know, the type that like just one song and don't even know who it is). You've probally heard the Rockafeller Skank (Right about now, the funk ... Read More Rating: - The songs are better than just the the pure dance groovesI am a rock fan and do not care for dance music. The songs on here that more resemble conventional song structure, with lyrics, are what "float my boat" as opposed to the more synthasized, groove oriented tracks. "Rockefeller Skank" and "Praise you" are the clear highlights Rating: - aai dont hav this album, i only heard the rockafeller skank song and its pretty cool. i like that lord finesse sample |
