Travelling Without Moving - Jamiroquai > Reviews

Advantages: Some cool songs
Disadvantages: Some didjeridus

Jamiroquai may be remembered for Jay K's love of Denise and fast cars, and big houses with geese. But i hope they might also be remembered for their music. Which is really pretty darn good - Cosmic Girl and Virtual insanity are great tracks, with reallly good base and drums and JK's cool lyrics. There are 2 pants tracks on the album - the didjerido ones - i think Jay had a friend in need and all he could do was play the didjeridoo. The rest ... Read review

If you've heard his music and you liked the sound of it, this is probably the first album you should buy and then ... Read review

Advantages: A brilliant FUNKtastic load of songs that make you want to funk along
Disadvantages: TO be honest I love it.

This is a great album, I picked up on jamiroquai a bit late but as soon as i heard this album at a mates house I knew I had to get it! If you like things a little funky then this is the album for you, as a bassisit I just love the way the bass carries some of the songs along, It's lush!The way that Jamiroquai just give you a taste of a song at the beginning and then build it up to an amazing climax of such a mixture of feelings and stlyes, with ballad, ...
