The much-anticipated second album instalment from Hollie Cook.  Prince Fatty dubs her self-titled album tracks adding extra bass, delays and reverbs to Hollie’s captivating vocals. Featuring tracks such as ‘For Me You Are Dub’; a ska version of an old Andrews Sisters’ classic, ‘And The Beat Goes On’; a brand new dub cover of the The Whispers’ disco classic, ‘Walking in the Sand’; a delicious adaptation of the Shangri La’s legendary record, and ‘Baby’; a new revamp of this heavily requested anthem, in collaboration with French synth-pop outfit, ‘The Shoes’.
 
“The dub versions showcase real tape echoes, heavy spring reverbs and alternate instrumental elements such as melodica, percussion or horns that were hidden in the vocal versions. All the dubs are mixed live in my studio in the same Rub a Dub style as was made famous in 70s Jamaica by King Tubby and others, i.e not with the use of computers for automation and endless digital nonsense but with fingers, late night vibes and re-arranged with a razor blade!” Prince Fatty

Chugga, Chug, Chuggin! 

verse 1
Hey there, lonely one.
I hear you loud and clear.
I’ve been right where you are,
and I trembled with fear.

verse 2
I was shaky, I was quaky,
didn’t know what to do.
without my smokes I’m flaky.
then my LOVE left me too!

chorus
All I can say, is there’s a better way!
Don’t turn to drink,
and don’t start druggin’
All you need is lottsa huggin’!

Don’t even risk, a drop to drink.
Next thing you know, you’ll be
“Chugga, Chug, Chuggin’!”

verse 3
I tried to be my own doctor.
A high-"Dunce-ity" mistake!
I’m the King of Knuckleheads!
It’s what I do for Heaven’s sake!

verse 4
Being a self-directed pharma,
Never worked out in the past.
I thought, “NO FOUL, NO HARMA!"
Had to heal that 12 gauge blast.

[bridge]
Plan a picnic, what a day!
Invite a friend, NOT a Hugger Mugger!
Bring Allen Carr’s,
“The Easy Way.”


[chorus]
All I can say, is there’s a better way!
Don’t turn to drink,
and don’t start druggin’
All you need is lottsa huggin’!

Interlude
Don’t even risk, a drop to drink.
Next thing you know, you’ll be

“Chugga, Chug, Chuggin’!
Chugga, Chug, Chuggin'!
Chugga, Chug, Chuggin'!
Chugga, Chug. Chug!"

"CHUGGA CHUG, GUZZZLE!
CHUGGA CHUG, GUZZZLE!
CHUGGA CHUG, GUZZZLE!
GUZZLE. GUZZLE GUZZLE!"

chorus
All I can say, is there’s a better way!
Don’t turn to drink,
and don’t start druggin’
All you need is lottsa huggin’!

Don’t even risk, a drop to drink.

Next thing you know, you’ll be
“Chugga, Chug, Chuggin’!
Chugga, Chug, Chuggin’!
Chugga, Chug, Chuggin’!”

“You’ll be alright!
This too shall pass.”
