Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Adding pop savvy to their soul-disco mix, Jamiroquai grabbed the attention of MTV and Top 40 radio and won a Grammy with this platinum-selling album, Travelling Without Moving. It's a fine record, with warm keyboards, sweet strings, and irrepressible grooves grounding Jay Kay's sublime vocals and fuelling the hits "Virtual Insanity", "Cosmic Girl" and the title track. That voice--elastic, jazzy--is the fire of the band, but immaculate guitar sounds, snappy backup vocals and clever old-school soul samples (Eddie Harris on "Alright", Esther Phillips on "High Times") are the details that create perfection. Balancing the dance-ready, radio-friendly tracks are the ballads "Everyday" and "Spend a Lifetime", the reggae-styled "Drifting Along", and a couple of didjeridoo instrumentals.--Suzanne McElfresh

CD Description
Hailing from the same neo-R&B scene that spawned Soul II Soul and Brand New Heavies, Jamiroquai continues to filter 1970s soul through a sieve of '90s acid jazz on its third album. Sounding remarkably like Stevie Wonder, singer Jason Kay'sairy vocals float over fat bass lines, disco rhythms and lush strings on "Cosmic Girl". "High Times" takes more of a bottom-heavy, P-Funk-meets-the-EWF-horns approach. Other up-tempo jams include "Use The Force", with its Afro-Cuban beat, and the equally funky, scratch-laden title track.
Jamiroquai's eclectic bag of influences includes reggae (the loping"Drifting Along") and world music. Two instrumentals centreon the otherworldly sounds of a didjeridoo. "Didjerama" is an ambient track that accentuates the instrument's hollow timbre with chirping birds and assorted percussion. "Didjital Vibrations" is quiet-storm music. An unlisted, drum-and-basscollaboration with M-Beat, "Do You Know Where You're ComingFrom", wraps up this vibrant package of Brit-soul.

4.0 out of 5 stars Jamiroquai at their bestest..., 6 Feb 2002
By A Customer
For an album that you can chill out and enjoy but isn't just a series of repetitive beats and drum loops and actually has some PROPER music, look no further. Not a bad song on the album, even the didgeridoo space fillers are pretty listenable and some great songs like Virtual Insanity, Cosmic Girl, High Times and Alright make this a very good album. If you're just starting on Jamiroquai, buy this first, its easily their best.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yet another top album the Jamiroquai Boys, 16 Jan 2003
By V. Ryan (London Uk) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
To me, this album brought Jamiroquai into more mainstream pop, but at the same time demonstrated the lyrical genius of the extreamly talented Jason Kay.
The album kicks off with the breathtaking "Virtual Insanity" a track which was way ahead of its time. Lyrically its amazing, bringing up the issue of how we shouldn't mess with mother nature. Then "Cosmic Girl" hits us on track 2, and this may be the most infectious Jamiroquai song along with Space Cowboy and Little L. I love track 3, for the fact that its something completly different. "Use The Force" is a samba sounding track which has feel good written all over it.
So after the upbeat start of the first 3 tracks we hit the beautiful "Everyday" on track 4. Kay's voice is gentle and sweet and he delivers this ballad in style.
To bring the beat back in track 5 is the top 20 hit "Alright". Another storming track and it gets better with "High Times" which is a cheeky song about ...getting high". We take a complete sound change when it comes to track 7. "Drifting Along" is simply a reggae track. Not one of my favourite but a great idea! Track 8 and 9 are the digeridoo tracks. the second of the two is a better track.
Once that is all done Jamiroquai hit track 10 with one of there finest - the title Track "Travelling Without Moving" This is one funked up mother of a track. And my personal album Favourite.
Track 11 is "You are my love" which is an 70's sounding song. A bit of a chill out one.
Album finishes with a great ballad "Spend A lifetime" - if oyur feeling depressed listen to this - it will go with the mood.

There is a bonus track - in the UK its "Funktion" Which is a great track and all you can tell by the name - its very funky!
If your in america the bonus track is Do You Know Where your coming from - which is one of the best Jamiroquai tracks I have ever heard - its so different yet so good.

This album has so many different sounds, and Jay Kay's voice is much stronger (although the first 2 albums in my opinion are faultless)

Just excellent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent range of styles and inspirng Didge tracks!, 24 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This was my first Jamiroquai album, and I have since bought "Emergency on planet Earth" and "A Funk Odyssey." I thought, when I first listened to Jamiroquai that all his stuff would be very samey. Well, I couldn't be more wrong. This album, in my opinion reflects everything that Jay Kay and the band are capable of. The didgeridoo tracks on this album actually inspired me to learn how to play the instrument. This is an excellent album, and I would advise anybody who isn't sure whether they like Jamiroquai or not to buy this album first. It's exxcellent, it easily gets two thumbs up in my books!!
