Let me introduce some tracks by Jamiroquai, the British band often said to be the most successful in acid jazz.

Jamiroquai is famous for the music video for Virtual Insanity—many of you may have seen it on YouTube, among other places.

This is a track from the 1996 album Traveling Without Moving.

The song was written by Jay Kay, Toby Smith, and Stuart Zender.

It was the last album they made together before bassist Stuart Zender left the band.

High TimesJamiroquai

This is one of my favorite songs.

I think it’s a track that showcases Jamiroquai’s style at full blast.

It’s got a great groove with a slightly dark vibe.

The trumpet that comes in midway adds atmosphere and sounds really cool.

It’s so groovy that your body starts moving on its own, and it really captures that Jamiroquai feel.

I think this track is especially popular.

This track isn’t an original by Jamiroquai; it’s Jamiroquai’s cover of Bobby Hebb’s classic “Sunny.” The song has long been performed frequently in sessions as a jazz standard, and Jamiroquai’s rendition also has a strong, stylish jam-session vibe.

Kind For A DayJamiroquai

This is a single from the fourth album Synkronized, released in 1999.

It’s a tribute song to bassist Stuart Zender, who was a member of Jamiroquai from 1992 to 1998.

With a harpsichord-like sound, the track follows a Baroque pop style, and Jay Kay’s aristocratic costume suits it well.

The music video suggests he’s grappling with a vexing problem.

Cloud9Jamiroquai

This is the second single from the eighth album Automaton, released in 2017.

The music video is memorable for the scenes of Jay Kay dancing with Hollywood actress Mónica Cruz, the sister of Spanish actress Penélope Cruz.

It was filmed in the Almería region of southern Spain, notably at the same locations used for the single Cosmic Girl, which was released 20 years earlier.

“Cloud 9” is an American meteorological term referring to cumulonimbus clouds, and it’s used as a positive expression meaning to ride an updraft or to feel elated.
