| | CANOE -- JAM! Music: PALOOKAVILLE |
 | | This fourth studio set from Fatboy Slim is a long way from the beat-crazy, sample-happy dance grooves that fuelled You've Come a Long Way, Baby. |
 | | Mellower, moodier and more melodic, Palookaville's dozen cuts document Cook's increasing musical maturity -- he may be a hedonistic DJ, but he is 41, after all -- and seem influenced, if not inspired, by some recently reported marital woes. |
 | | Fatboy fires up the sampler for Don't Let the Man Get You Down, which is based around the "long-haired freaky people" line from the 5 Man Electrical Band's Signs. |
