ARTWORK of Runaway Promo & Single
[picture removed by Space Clav]
Maybe this is giving us a hint on what to expect for the official release. I hope not though... it's boring to say the least. I'd much rather see some astronaut theme to connect it with the video. Why not Jay in the astronaut suit setting up a Buffalo Man flag on the moon?  _________________ Old school forever!

Well, I just bought the promo... much cheaper... but still (too) expensive. I wanted to be "first" having this in my collection. The price tag on impatience is high.  _________________ Old school forever! |

Well... is just simple buffalo man. Besides, most promos doesn't even have a cover, so this one having a flashy and strange one is ok.

That's not entirely true. Perhaps for promos in general, but not for Jamiroquai promos in particular. I can't give any figures, but most Jamirquai promos actually have a cover (eg Morning Glory, Everyday, TWM, IILIIDI, Aussie Supersonic etc...). Some of the promos of the Dynamite era have been more or less the same as the official releases though. The most recent "acetate" promos usually have a generic black Buffalo Man on white cover. The "summer remixes" series of promos had the generic type of cover artwork also seen on the Runaway remixes promo. _________________ Old school forever! |

Yes you're right Space Clav, I was referring mostly to the last promos, DGHAC, the sampler, almost most promos of dynamite era didn't have many different covers.

Here's one on eBay... It's quite possible it'll end up cheaper than mine. Currently at £5.50 with 2 days and 20h left. _________________ Old school forever! |

i like this one better than the high times album cover. it seems (to me), that the hat is being washed by the water, so then a new era is about to come |
