  • Chemical Brothers - Desert Island track

RichM you can’t include Fat of the Land amongst their golden albums, only the first 2 we’re decent,

Agreed

    The fat of the land had a handful of bangers… And really I’m talking ⅘ at most. There were some real stinkers and dull moments Vs the first 2 albums which were FULL of bangers. The only exception being Death of the Prodigy dancers.

    alistair Funky Shit is a wicked track

    Yeah I was thinking earlier that it was prob the one that would work best if played out today.

      1997 was a pretty exceptional year for albums. Dig Your Own Hole, Fat Of The Land, New Forms, Homework, Colours, Modus Operandi, Orblivion, ESCM…

      And that’s not even getting into the likes of OK Computer, Bricolage, Life After Death, et cetera.

        jonattonyeah Luke Slater Freak Funk and Roni Size New Forms were both 1997 and the two first legit pieces of electronic music I owned.

            alistair whether its any cop is subjective but mothballed is a little unfair on some of those names
