In It for the Money, the second studio album from Supergrass, came out on Parlophone in April 1997, and it's the sound of the band that made I Should Coco growing up fast without losing their grins. John Cornfield produced it, and the three-piece of Gaz Coombes, Mick Quinn and Danny Goffey sound wilder and far more ambitious than on the debut.
The songs lurch between swaggering stompers and moodier, stranger turns, Coombes yelping over it all while Quinn and Goffey keep the rhythm bouncing. "Cheapskate" is a cheeky, strutting rocker that shows off the band's knack for hooks. NME loved it, comparing the thrill to watching a wombat tumble around a washing machine, and named it the tenth best album of the year. Q readers later voted it the 68th greatest album ever, and Q put it at number 57 among the greatest British albums in 2000.
