I'm diggin "Starchild","Time Won't Wait","Seven Days In Sunny June" and the title track.This album sounds HOT!!

I guess it sounds like all his other albums.

are you a fan?

it's nice to finally hear a good,clear version of "Electric Mistress".For weeks,I've been playing a version that was taped from a European radio station

DavidEye said:

I like some of his work, but there's never any surprises. Travelling Without Moving is probably my fave. I'll no doubt hear his latest as I have many friends who buy his stuff.

Cloudbuster said:

listen to the sound samples! It's a great album


I'm glad they didn't move too far away from the disco/funk sound of the last two albums.There aren't enough bands and artists playing this kind of music anymore.

Pleasant surprise. Thanks!
Hot Tequila is hot. So is Talulah .

I wish they had left the digital stuff alone 'til they read all the manuals and figured out how to do it right.

"Talulah" is nice

I'm loving 'Feels Just Like It Should'. A real deep and funky groove.

Can't wait to pick up the entire Album.

My Wife has me on quite a tight Album-buying Leash right now due to a few debt issues, but this is one CD that I am going to pick up.

DavidEye said:

You got that right!
I'am also liking dynamite, talulah, give hate a change and of course seven days..

Does anybody know if Jamiroquai did a cover of Hollywood Swinging by KOOL AND THE GANG. I just heard that song last week and it sounded like them.

Yeah it's them. It's on the "Kool & The Gang:Reloaded" album.

This is sounding nice. Anyone have a release date?

it will be released on June 21 in most of the world,but I heard a rumor that it will be delayed until the fall here in the States

Some nice tracks in there...JK has really nailed the new soul funk disco formula - sounds like it will sell a heap too

The thing I love about Jamiroquai is,they remain loyal to the funk.They're totally "old school".None of these songs have any hip-hop influences,and they don't try to sound like today's lame R&B.It's refreshing to see a modern-day band play music like this....real funk and disco.

DavidEye - have you ever seen them live?

They're playing in my city this September and I'd really like to see them; I reckon it would be pretty good. As I've mentioned before, I'm not a huge fan but I love their singles. Just wondering what sort of show they put on...?

onenitealone said:

No,I've never seen them live.They never tour here in the States!

But I have their "Live In Verona" DVD and it is excellent.Too bad it was raining throughout most of the performance...lol


So,did you listen to the sound samples? What do you think of the new album?

Personally, I'd like them to sound a little rawer with more edge - Deeper Underground really nailed it for me as to what they could sound like with some of the sheen taken off the production.

Maybe I need to hear them live..?

Because the U.S. release date is uncertain,I went ahead and ordered the Japanese import,which contains a bonus track ("Feels So Good" Knee Deep Remix) and will be released on June 20.You can get if for $38.09 at CD Universe.It's expensive,but I can't wait until the fall for a copy of this album

DavidEye said:

I've seen them live a couple of years ago. Good show, no doubt!

And some advice: if you go to see'em, take some weed with you, will ya? Jay K asked the audience to throw some shit on stage.. and he actually refused to sing, sat down and stopped... until someone in the audience gave him some

great sound samples btw, the album looks promising

DavidEye said:

They haven't toured there?? I think you should apply for their US Promo division or something!

I haven't heard the samples but I'll wait for one of my mates to get the album. Glad you like it it so far.

Dancelot said:

Hey, I hope he damn well paid for the shit he got given! Otherwise , that kinda begging is called vagrancy round these parts!




I think it is kinda good music to be stoned too, though...Not that I have listened to it stoned...Anyone out there confirm this...?

onenitealone said:

They toured here in 1999 to promote the 'Synchronized' album,but I missed their show

Dancelot said:

Take some weed with me,huh? LOL
