How it feels

This is a live concert recording of the British band Jamiroquai performing at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 2003. The songs are extended versions that feel more improvisational and drawn out than the studio recordings. It includes every track from the festival plus a bonus performance from 1995.

What happens

Jamiroquai – Live at Montreux 2003 is a DVD/Blu-ray of a concert performed by the British band Jamiroquai at the 2003 Montreux Jazz Festival. The DVD was released on 1 October 2007 through Eagle Vision, a distributor also related to other DVD releases of Montreux Jazz Festival performances, and the same distributor later published the HD Blu-ray version on 4 August 2009. While the concert had previously been bootlegged in whole by fans, this disc is the first official release of the concert's recording. While the DVD and Blu-ray features all of the tracks from the festival (including the notoriously rare "Shoot the Moon"), it also features a 12-minute live version of "Space Cowboy", recorded at the same jazz festival, albeit in 1995. Most of this concert's songs are extended, a prime example being "Travelling Without Moving", which lasts for 3 minutes and 40 seconds on the album but 12 minutes during the concert. Such extended performances are common for the band's live concerts. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
