Editorial Reviews

Synopsis
Born out of the late '80s/early '90s acid jazz movement, British funksters Jamiroquai carved out their own slice of feel-good, eminently danceable pop with a social conscience. Whether they were lamenting the state of the environment in 'When You Gonna Learn' or talking politics in 'Too Young To Die', Jay Kay's eco-warrior persona was always compelling. Fusing '70s disco, funk, R&B, and jazz with Aboriginal and Latin influences, Jamiroquai sounded unlike any other band in pop music. Thanks to their charismatic--if at times outspoken--frontman, the band enjoyed success across Europe, but failed to crack America. The closest they came was in 1996 with the cautionary 'Virtual Insanity' from Grammy-winning album TRAVELLING WITHOUT MOVING. But it was with their fourth album SYNKRONIZED that the band really hit their stride, producing the stomping UK #1 hit 'Deeper Underground' and disco gem 'Canned Heat'. Subsequent efforts have seen the band shift gear towards an edgier, more synthesized sound.


Customer Reviews

Just what we wanted!5
After many years of waiting, finally Jamiroquai have released a video collection. I am happy to say that there are no annoying adverts or logos at the beginning, as soon as you pop in the DVD it goes straight to the menu, and then you can select "Play All" and it's 25 videos in a row, just how it should be!

From award winners like Virtual Insanity to Jamiroquai's first ever video; When You Gonna Learn, which never gets played on TV. Also not listed on the back for some reason, but I promise you it is on here is the Black Capricorn Day video which is hilarious. It was never released but it is a great addition to this collection. There is a whole range of video's here, they are all entertaining and how many other bands can say they've got 25 high quality videos to put out?

Some nice extras too, especially the interviews with JK. I can confidently say that this is one of the best music video DVD's I have ever seen. The only thing missing is the most recent video for Runaway. Other than that this is perfect!
