Zire (DJ); Linda Lewis, Vanessa Simon (background vocals). Includes liner notes by Jay Kay. Jamiroquai's debut brings together a utopian worldview, funky '70s R&B influences and the liberated sensibility of England's burgeoning acid-jazz movement. The band, led by singer Jason "Jay" Kay, rides a funky groove while spreading a message of peace, love and environmental conscientiousness. The results of this meeting of heart and head range from Brazilian-flavored instrumentals like "Music Of The Mind" to to songs like "If I Like It, I Do It," on which yesterday's jazzy soul is spun around on today's hip-hoppy turntables.Jamiroquai also flexes its improvisational muscle on two songs that clock in at over eight minutes. On "Blow Your Mind," Kay scats like George Benson, and the band captures the funky flow of "Summer Madness"-era Kool & The Gang. "Revolution 1993" is a 10-minute vamp on self-determination, featuring an Afro-Caribbean rhythm, Herbie Mann-inspired flute, a raging Moog synthesizer and the darting strings of the Reggae Philharmonic Orchestra.

Reviews  Le premier album de Jamiroquai!Review created: 06/02/08 by:  Premier album (1993) pour Jay Kay incluant déjà deux tubes interplanétaires mêlant habilement sonorité africaines (basses et didjéridou) avec des cuivres assez jazzy! Cet album sera le début d'un longue série pour cet artiste incontournable de la fin du XXème et début du XXIème siècle! Review ID: 10000000005473882 Was this review helpful? Report this review  Stevie Wonder soundalike.Review created: 05/04/07 by: It's the first album of his I've ever heard,and was pleasantly surprised. He really has got a voice like Stevie Wonder. I am a Jazz fiend...but I still enjoyed it..whether I will play it a lot remains to be seen. I bought it having seen him on Top Gear actually! It was reasonably priced, not a problem then if I didn't like it. I suppose I could always resell it on Ebay.! Review ID: 10000000003320657 Was this review helpful? Report this review Jamiroquai; Emergency on planet earthReview created: 03/10/06 by: Jay kays first crack at an album. The thing I noticed about his earlier stuff is there is a lot of tracks with no vocals. this is the ultimate music to drive to, I have all six albums he has released to date, and this being his first isn't as dominant in my playlist as the others, but nevertheless it has that feel good funk to it. Go buy, it's good stuff. Review ID: 10000000001964873 Was this review helpful?
