“Over countless years I have always dreamed of an official release for this mash up. I can confirm it is thoroughly road tested and fit for purpose”: Fatboy Slim’s Satisfaction Skank bootleg is finally released

The Rolling Stones have finally cleared the release of one of the most talked-about bootlegs of the mash-up era: Fatboy Slim’s Satisfaction Skank.

The Brighton-based DJ (real name Norman Cook, of course) created the bootleg by combining the riff from Satisfaction with his own Rockerfeller Skank, after he said he grew “bored” of playing the original. But Stones' management, who have always tended to take a harsh view over unofficial uses of the band’s material, said no go.
