I'd like to quote from WYGL, as a message to jamiroquai:
| Quote: |
| "You better play it natures way, or she will take it all away" |
got it?

Ten years on, and it's still as fresh and important as before. Well done to my favourite band. Who'd have thought they'd still be going in 10 years' time?
I will play my WYGL 12" in celebration, and thank whoever runs this crazy planet for giving us this euphoric vibe. Long live Jamiroquai!

Meike, the Acid Jazz version of WYGL is not super duper hard to find. I always thought it was some kind of mythical item, but if you look in the right places you will surely find one. I got my AJ 12" last year (thanks to the wonderful assistance of Romain!) and came across other Jami 12"s in the independent record stores of London. I gather the CD version is very hard to find, but any of those little record shops or internet sites will throw up some interesting surprises.

**Ezbe understands the concept of foreign travel!**
I'm sure if you ask people nicely, they will go and look for you if they happen to be passing a record store in London...

 i'm not whining, missjaykay! :)
I'm thankfull for ebay as well (my bankaccount isn't!) but as i wrote in a previous thread somewhere, it's not only the having of the singles but also the hunting! and to be honest, i did spend about the money for a trip to london for a jamiroquai-bootleg-cd...
