Toby Smith and his unique chord progressions was even more important. Zender brought the craziness and groove, and is more talented than Toby. But Toby Smith was the co-writer and composer with Jay, and brought that unique sound that the band had on the first 4 albums (and some tracks of "A Funk Odyssey"). You can feel on the album Dynamite, that Jamiroquai was not Jamiroquai anymore but a great classic funk band, that has lost its sound, because Toby was not there anymore.
I would hate the same thing. He probably has social anxiety disorder like I do. Lol one of the biggest things to freak people out who have that is being made the center of attention ; freaks me out and makes me self conscious. 😖
@Vegetta 777speedc; I think we can all agree that we cast a shadow but for some unfortunate among us... They can feel it. Unpleasant doesn't even begin to describe what they may not be able to control unless the practice of cognitive behavioral therapy is always improvised and adapted to every different scenario. Otherwise what used to work doesn't and what you allude to becomes very very real. Don't joke man. There's nothing worse than feeling helpless to help someone suffering.
Merci Stuart Zender pour avoir tant apporté à Jamiroquai, le groupe n’est plus le même sans toi et Toby «mais aussi D-Zire, Katz, et la section cuivre qui était incroyable. Ce gars est la réponse au pourquoi j’ai commencé la basse et acheté une Warwick Streamer Stage II.
One of the travesties of the last few decades has to be why these guys couldn’t put aside their differences and continue to play together for the good of the music and the band, they went to light/disco/pop after Zender left. They really had it and yes the bass led the entire band. But no doubt when they got huge egos must’ve got in the way.
I will admit, RDLS was kinda asscheeks lowkey 🥶 But Automaton was good, especially for its time - I think Jami was hoping on the synthwave / funk rock sound that was quite popular during the late ‘10s, and they made it work. And don’t forget about Dynamite, I think that’s their best record since Zender left the band. But I miss him just as much as the rest of the Jamily does, it would be nice to see them all reunite and let bygones be bygones. 🙏
Tan talentoso, lastima que no se pudo quedar en la banda. Hasta le seguía las locuras a mi Jay Kay. Zender es leyenda viva y guapo y como desbarata el bajo woww siempre me encantó el. Me dio una pena muy grande cuando mi amor Jay Kay lo reemplazo ☹️❤️❤️
Sacré touché de corde ce Stuart Zender, si jeune et déjà tellement talentueux au début de Jamiroquai. C’est clair qu’il était l’essence du groupe ! Les trois premiers album étaient des bombes, la suite…….bof……
have to say paul turner is doing a great job ...he pays respect to stuart...when a band member leaves you can stop or go on...they carried on...they fly the flag for funk music...even to this day they are a very tight band...❤ from ireland..
Increíblemente, el alma de Jamiroquai no era solo Jason Kay con sus canciones que el escribía o su inconfundible voz, sino también el bajo de Stuart que era el que le daba la vida a sus canciones. Sin Stuart definitivamente la banda perdió parte de su alma original, ahora parece un autómata
The question is not who is recorded... the question is about the composer of these mazing baselines... And each time it's Stuart Zender... I am a Pro Stuart... just look at my name !
There's no way I'm coming back to you I just stopped to say That everything we did is through You tried to undermine The better ranges of my nature But soon you're going to find You should have started talking straighter Now don't you worry I won't put you down I'm in no hurry, babe To see you go to ground Because it's true what they say You know, it's true what they say You're only king for a day I hope you're happy that way There's no hope For peace and reconciliation You're quick to play your hand But what you haven't learnt is patience So look before you leap To tell the world your coloured story It's clear your talk is cheap Do anything to get your glories So spread your wings and fly There is no doubt You're so sure inside, you've got something to Shout about Because it's true what they say You know, it's true what they say You're only king for a day I guess you're happy that way And there's no love Ever to be lost between us I guess this is because The damage you've done is so grievous So I hang my head To dwell on what might have been But what you left instead Pieces of a broken dream Now don't you worry I won't put you down I'm in no hurry, babe To see you go to ground Because it's true what they say You know, it's true what they say You're only king for a day I guess you're happy that way So spread your wings and fly There is no doubt You're so sure inside, you've got something to Something to shout about Because it's true what they say You know, it's true what they say You're only king for a day I guess you're happy that way Don't you see that You're only king for a day You must believe that
@Davie504 Stuart Zender is the best Bass Player and Bass Composer in the World. Davie504 will never beat Stuart Zender because Davie504 does not play Jamiroquai bass covers because of copyright claims.
