Reviews Customer Reviews for LateNightTales It's OK Rating: Not much to say about this. I was excited to get it and I am glad I have it, but it's nothing great. A compilation CD, of which, has little fatboy slim, is a good mix of electronica, but nothing overly fantastic. I say get it and enjoy it, but don't set your expectations too high.
Customer Reviews for LateNightTales Cd A Fantastic Compilation Rating: This is one of the best compilations to come out of the Late Night Series. What a fellow reviewer failed to realize prior to purchasing this cd was that the Late Night Tales/Another Late Night series are compilation albums of work done by other artists, with an occasional track or two from the featured artist compiling the album, nothing more, nothing less. They are not original work, but a series of songs put together by the artist that he/she finds influencial, or simply finds groovy. However, that is by no means a bad thing. These Late Night Tales albums are some of the best "mixed tapes" I have ever had the pleasure to listen.
That being said, Fatboy Slim put together a great album here. The vibe of this album: smooth, cool, upbeat, groovy, silly, and mellow. With a mix of rock, reggae, classical, calypso, international, 60s pop, and unique gems (Robert Mitchum singing!), I really think you'll enjoy this album. The only track I find a strange choice is Bootsy Colllins' "Everything is Everything". But that's the only track of 21 that I didn't like.
Listen to the samples, and I'm sure you'll agree this album is most enjoyable. Other personal favorites of the Late Night Tales/ Another Late Nite collections are compilations from Air, Belle & Sebastian, The Flaming Lips, and Nouvelle Vague. I have discovered many new artists thanks to Late Night Tales/ Another Late Night.
