Review

For a few hours one scorching July day, Brighton Beach became the venue for the Big Beach Boutique II, one of the biggest parties the UK has ever seen. Thanks to the city's star resident, one Mr. Cook (a.k.a. Fatboy Slim), 250,000 revelers were able to forget a decade of shindig-stifling legislation and party for free while perfecting that great move "the pebble shuffle." Predictably, a wave of negative press followed, but for anyone who was there, it was one of the most memorable events since the sun set on the Summer of Love. It's nearly impossible to bottle that kind of atmosphere, but Big Beach Boutique II is a good attempt to bring the sun to your speakers. While excerpts from support DJ sets such as Groove Armada's midpaced "Superstylin'" and the Lo Fidelity Allstars' feisty "Tied to the Mast" create a carnival feel, it's only when Cook kicks off with Tim Deluxe's "It Just Won't Do (dub)" that things really get going. If not the most eclectic mix album ever made, it has enough superb moments, like Cook's magnificent mix of X Press 2's "Lazy," to make BBB II a great slice of nostalgia. --Christopher BarrettBig Beach Boutique is the album from the biggest beach party ever seen in the seaside UK resort of Brighton and has been compiled by Norman Cook (aka Fatboy Slim) & Damian Harris (aka Mindfield General & owner, Skint records). It features 17 of the best tracks from the night, as well as a few others that are set to be big ones. Southern Fried Records. 2002.
