Believe it or not, I don't own "Return"....but familiar with most the songs
nevertheless.....there are 3 on there from "Dynamite" (which is my fav), 2
from "Funk", and 1 from "Synkronized"....so with the 2 new songs, it's close
to half...but it is a little amazing that there aren't more from other albums.
But hey, I'll take it.

'Dymamite' is your fav? It's funny,I liked that CD alot when it was first released,but I got bored with it really quickly.That actually makes me mad,because I think it's a strong,solid album.I can't explain why it didn't hold my interest longer.In any case,the song "Seven Days In Sunny June" is one of their best songs ever.I never get tired of that song!

That would be a very, very close 2nd in my world...in fact it's close to
being a toss up between the two in some ways.

Americans seem to have a different perspective on this. Believe me, when that second album came out in 94 everyone was disappointed. The title track was one of the best singles of the 90s but no one liked the rest of the it. It turned out to be a typical music industry story. After touring all year to promote the first album they were given just a few months to write and record the follow up. Neither they nor the fans were too thrilled with the results.

"Disco funk" sounds great. "Smooth" has me worried because that usually means midtempo. lol
Andy is a four letter word.

hmmm Wow,that's surprising.I thought that album was considered their big "masterpiece"? Personally,it's not my favorite album by them but it gets alot of love on this site and the Jamiroquai forums.

No,it won't be some modern-sounding,midtempo R&B bullshit.Jamiroquai JAMS as if it were still 1979 lol
