Jamiroquai - Jamiroquai Jamiroquai is a British band led by lead singer Jay Kay (short for Jason Kay) and backed by bass and guitar players, drummers, and keyboardists. Their albums have sold many millions of copies. Jamiroquai's first single, When You Gonna Learn?, was released in 1992. Jamiroquai's first album, Emergency on Planet Earth, came out in 1993. The third album, Travelling Without Moving, yielded a big American pop hit, Virtual Insanity, in 1997. The band's early songs had an acid jazz flavor. But due to Jay Kay's interest in funk and disco music, the band gradually shifted in other directions. By their fifth album, A Funk Odyssey (2001), the disco influence was especially evident. The fifth album's first single, Little L, scored high in many charts worldwide..

Guru (rapper) - N'Dea Davenport, MC Solaar and Roy Ayers, while his second LP, Jazzmatazz, Vol. 2: The New Reality, featured Ramsey Lewis, Branford Marsalis and Jamiroquai. Though the Jazzmatazz albums were commonly considered some of the best rap in the early 1990s, Guru's reputation suffered slightly with the mixed reviews of Streetsoul (2000) and Baldhead Slick & Da Click (2001)..
Disco - for different artists whose role was purely to sing and market the songs. Top disco music producers included Patrick Adams, Alec Costandinos, Nile Rodgers, Bernard Edwards, Quincy Jones, Kenton Nix, François Kevorkian, Meco Monardo, Greg Diamond, Giorgio Moroder, Tom Moulton, and Vincent Montana Jr. In the early 1980s, George Benson, Patrice Rushen, Brothers Johnson, Commodores, The S.O.S. Band, and many other artists created disco classics. After 1980, however, disco music morphed into other forms, including house and Hi-NRG which, combined with an often overt racist and anti-gay backlash, caused much of the general public to lose interest in disco, giving rise to the phrase "Disco is dead." In the 1990s a revival of the original disco style began and is exemplified by such songs as "Spend Some Time" by Brand New.
Acid jazz - kind of keyboard instrument (providing either rhythmic support or ambient sound effects) and vocals.

Princes Risborough - by King Charles I of England to a London citizen. After passing hands privately several times the palace has long since disappeared. In 1765 the Earl of Buckingham gave the rectory of Princes Risborough to the manor at Nutley Abbey in Long Crendon, to which it is still attached today. The market in the town was granted by King Henry III of England, as was the privelege of the townsmen to be excused from attending quarterly assizes. The estate lands of Princes Risborough are still fairly extensive today, and include various hamlets scattered over the nearby Chiltern Hills. These include Lacey Green, Loosley Row, Longwick and Speen. Today Princes Risborough is a beautiful town that has been featured many times in films and television series as being a typical English country.
