DESCRIPTION:
1999 Jazz Funk/ Soul / R&B Pop LP Repreesed On Heavyweight Vinyl & Inc MP32 & Download Code - Gatefold Sleeve
Three years after their breakout Travelling Without Moving, Jamiroquai returned with another album that charts Jay Kay's continuing fascination with club-bound music of the 1970s -- from disco to jazz-funk to rare groove to later Motown -- but also shows signs of maturity. Produced by Kay with Al Stone, who also collaborated on Travelling Without Moving, the album includes several tracks (like the single "Canned Heat") that work infectious acid jazz grooves, and Kay's hipster vocals give out feel-good vibes through a set of ambiguously good-time lyrics. Though other tracks show a bit of an electronica update to the affairs, each still spotlights how strong and tight the band is. It may not be a leap ahead in sound, but Synkronized is another solid Jamiroquai record.

Last FM Information on Jamiroquai

Jamiroquai are an English acid jazz and funk band formed in London in 1992. The group is led by vocalist Jay Kay, who has remained the sole consistent member throughout multiple lineup changes. They initially became associated with the London acid jazz movement of the early 1990s and later incorporated influences from rock, disco, electronic music, and Latin styles. Their lyrics have frequently focused on social and environmental themes.
Jamiroquai first recorded under Acid Jazz Records before signing with Sony, where they achieved mainstream commercial success. Several of their albums reached number one on the UK Albums Chart, including "Emergency on Planet Earth" (1993), "Synkronized" (1999), and "A Funk Odyssey" (2001). Their 1998 single "Deeper Underground" also topped the UK Singles Chart.
By 2017, the band had sold more than 26 million albums worldwide. Their third studio album, "Travelling Without Moving" (1996), was recognized by Guinness World Records as the best-selling funk album in history. The success of its single "Virtual Insanity", whose music video won Video of the Year at the 1997 MTV Video Music Awards and earned a Grammy Award in 1998, played a significant role in expanding the band’s international prominence.
