Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

On a crystal clear English summer's evening in the summer of 2001, Norman Cook played his most celebrated DJ set Live On Brighton Beach. In front of an estimated 30,000 loved-up Brightonians dancing on the pebbles, the man known to millions as Fatboy Slim took to the decks for two hours of typically hedonistic party mayhem. It's these two hours--or, at least, an edited version of them--that make our Norm's first mix album in yonks and a perfect souvenir of the night now known as "Normstock".

Sound wise, the album sees Mr Zoe Ball doing what he does best--mashing up thumping dancefloor favourites in a sweat-drenched party stylee. Those expecting classic big beat belters are in for a shock, though, 'cos these days the Fatboy is more into straight-up house and techno--albeit with the aforementioned party twist. So, we get some of 2001's biggest records--Basement Jaxx's "Where's Your Head At?", Raven Maze's "The Real Life", a couple from Santos--alongside a smatering of classics (Leftfield's "Phat Planet", an anthemic version of Underworld's "Born Slippy") and the off Fatboy number to keep the punters sweet. The result is a hot, sweaty, grimy mix that perfectly captures the sound and feel of Norman Cook's DJ sets, even if it does feel a touch out of date. --Matt Anniss

4.0 out of 5 stars Huge Choons!, 21 Feb 2002
By A Customer
Fatboy is in his element at this live gig on the beach of his adopted home-town.

This album doesn't exactly break conventions, but it is as close as you will probably get to distilling the Fatboy Slim live experience onto a plastic disc.

He basically mixes up a mixed back of new and old house stuff and chucks a couple of his own numbers in to keep the punters happy.

Right about now!

5.0 out of 5 stars awesome tunes, 26 Feb 2006
i dont know why people both to give this album 1 star, they must of been born in the wrong era. the late 80's i was raving to the top tunes that revolutionised the dance scene. then in the early 90's dance really took off and made it what it is today. this set piece by norman cook has to be the best thing ive heard for a while, i am a great fan of dj mixes and while there are some mixes on cd that are better, this cd delivers some great vibing tunes which will have you moving for the weekend. all my friends like it and we are not really followers of norman cook, but this has to be a good buy for the REAL CONNOISSEUR who enjoys dance music in its original form.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, 27 Nov 2005
By A Customer
Fatboy slim mixes like a dream; from classic dance anthems of his own making to those of others, this CD is an experience not to be missed. There are some negative reviews listed here, but they're way off. Anyone who enjoys Fatboy Slim's exciting, big beat style of dance will enjoy this CD. Great buy!
