Emergency On Planet Earth
 


Date of Release:
June 14 1993
Label: Sony Soho (S2)
Variants:
None that we know

This first Jamiroquai album is full of grooving funky tunes that get you thinking about the state of humanity, the environment and making a difference on the planet. When You Gonna Learn, the first track on EOPE, introduces listeners to the unique sound that is Jamiroquai’s a mixture of funk, jazz, didgeridoo, and singer Jay Kay’s smooth vocals.
Tracks like Revolution 1993, If I Like It I Do It, and Emergency On Planet Earth are packed full with statements on the nature of our environment and the need for change, while instrumentals like Music Of The Mind and Didgin’ Out make you sit back, relax, and enjoy the music.
Didgin’ Out is one of the most interesting tracks on the album because it features the didgeridoo, an aboriginal instrument, played with style by band member Wallis Buchanan. Tracks worthy of being on repeat on the CD player are When You Gonna Learn, Too Young To Die, and Blow Your Mind .
This is one album that will not only make you wanna save the planet and make a difference, but make you get on your feet to groove the night away and dance to the music!
