20 years ago this week on 19 October 1998, Fatboy Slim released his second full length album 'You've Come A Long Way, Baby'. Two decades on, it's still rated by many as a great party record. In reality, it hasn't aged well, and some of it is grating. It does still feature some fine moments though. My favourite is the terrific 'Soul Surfing', a fine example of late 90s big beat.
Norman Cook recorded the LP at his home studio "The House of Love" in Brighton. The album was a critical and commercial success, reaching number one on the UK albums chart. Four singles were released from the album: "The Rockafeller Skank", "Gangster Trippin'", "Praise You", and "Right Here, Right Now", each reaching the top 10 in the UK Singles Chart.
