All Music Guide Review:

Review by Andy Hinds
The CD-5 of Fatboy Slim's hugely successful "Rockafeller Skank" single (from You've Come a Long Way, Baby) features two versions of its ubiquitous title track (including a short edit), but the real draw here is the non-album track "Always Read the Label," which is classic Norman Cook -- an irresistibly funky mid-tempo groove, sampled tag line, and all the heavy-handedness fans know and love from the world's greatest champion of the big beat. It should have been included on the album. Also includes the less-valuable but otherwise unavailable "Tweakers Delight."
