I was a big Stuart Zender ( Bass) fan, and I was never as excited about them after he left...so this tune was one of my favorites:
"Mr Moon"




However, my introduction to them was the 'Cante Hondo Mix' of "When You Gonna Learn", before the first album came out...it was later included on the remix compilation....




What really used to trip me out, though, was this comedy skit from Uk's "Fast Show"...I wonder if Jay Kay ever saw this:

Jamiroquai is named after a Indian Tribe Iroquois tribe whose pantheism inspired them.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iroquois

The Iroquois (pronounced /ˈɪrəkwɔɪ/), also known as the Haudenosaunee or the "People of the Longhouse",[1] are an indigenous people of North America. In the 16th century or earlier, the Iroquois came together in an association known as the Iroquois League, or the "League of Peace and Power". The original Iroquois League was often known as the Five Nations, and comprised the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca nations. After the Tuscarora nation joined the League in the 18th century, the Iroquois have often been known as the Six Nations. The League is embodied in the Grand Council, an assembly of 50 hereditary sachems.

When Europeans first arrived in North America, the Iroquois were based in what is now the northeastern United States, primarily in what is referred to today as upstate New York.[2] Today, Iroquois live primarily in the United States and Canada.

The Iroquois League has often also been known as the Iroquois Confederacy, but some modern scholars now make a distinction between the League and the Confederacy.[3][4][5] According to this interpretation, the Iroquois League refers to the ceremonial and cultural institution embodied in the Grand Council, while the Iroquois Confederacy was the decentralized political and diplomatic entity that emerged in response to European colonization. The League still exists, but the Confederacy was shattered by the defeat of the British and allied Iroquois nations in the American Revolutionary War.[3]

I just find it funny that wiki uses such an obsucre and convoluted pronunciation symbols half the time that you'd usually be able to pronounce it correctly sight-reading it than trying decipher their described pronunciation
