On the Ropes (album)


On the Ropes is the debut album by British electronica duo Mint Royale, released in 1999 on the Faith & Hope label.
In June 2001, a new version of the album was published for the U.S. market by MCA Records, featuring a different cover and a different track list. The two versions of "Shake Me" present in the original album were removed, and three new songs were added: two exclusive songs, as well as "Show Me", which would later appear in Mint Royale's subsequent album Dancehall Places.
