THIS IS 2 KOOL was the first compilation released on the
2 Kool label out of the UK. It's a pleasant but innocuous
compilation. The 9 Lazy 9 track kicks off the album and
is really the best thing on there. Your money would be
better spent on a 9 Lazy 9 album, IMHO.

If you still want a compilation, try one of the Ninja Tune ones:
FUNKJAZZTICKLE TRICKNOLOGY or FLEXISTENTIALISM: THE JOY OF DEX.
