#42 Fatboy Slim - That Old Pair of Jeans & #7 Bob Sinclair - Love Generation

In which we switch to full uplift.

the Fatboy track came through Sunny's PolloxNiner blog, which sadly isn't as updated as frequently as it used to be. The video steals another juggler's ball synch to a Beatles clip while the song makes due with a 'Ha! Haaaaa ha!' sample (?). It's a 'you go girl' kinda thing, that honestly, falls a little short of previous fatboy efforts like Praise You. (#2 1999).

Love Generation, on the other hand, brings to mind Soul (Easter) Brunch at Miss Debi Mae West's house in the valley. The sun was fighting the clouds all day long and Jessica, Vallier and I were all setting our minds to leave. (Jess, where are you?)

Just as we were making our way to the door, Chris threw this bit of Balaeric bongo goodness on the decks, and well, the sun *shone*. Pandemonium. Peeps on deck chairs, hands to the sky, bouncing like the good madmen and madwomen we all are. The words of the good reverend Jimmy Cliff exhorting us on.

One of those nearly perfect moments that will always define Soulicious crew for me.

4 nights later, with k8 visiting, and Sobier & Hart in for editing, Chris threw it on again, this time at Club 17 in Santa Monica. Less pandemonium, but fun to get the Sobier shuffle going to it. Also delightful to be able to dance with the enchanting Jill Auerbach.
