Rob Harris website relaunch and new AOL session
Added on Tuesday 30 May 2006, 06:49 (BST)
After opening the doors to his own website in September 2005, Jamiroquai guitarist Rob Harris has once again re-launched the site with a new design.  He announces it on his blog... So, i just noticed that my new site is up and online.I had a good friend of mine ( the guy who did the last one) re-do it cos to be honest my attempt was pretty bad.Web design is not my cup of tea as many of you have noticed lol.I'm pleased with how the revised site looks and i promise to try to keep on top of myself to keep it updated regularly. In addition to the website re-launch, he also writes on his blog about a new session that the band recorded for AOL following last weeks Rock in Rio concert in Portugal.  He writes... I don't know if anyone has seen it yet but we did a little aftershow session for AOL in which we played Black Crow and LoveFool in this small portacabin on the festival site.We were a little apprehensive about it when we entered the room but they had a drum kit,guitar and bass amps and a keyboard set up too.Lots of fun,both Matt and Paul did a great job seeing as they'd never played Black Crow before.Actually we haven't played that tune for at least 3 maybe 4 years.We also did a little twist on Love Fool breaking into Curtis Mayfield territory. There's plenty more to read to check out the all new Rob-Harris.co.uk and also Rob's MySpace blog. Finally, I don't believe these new AOL session recordings are online yet (unless someone tells me otherwise) but videos of Canned Heat, Cosmic Girl and Space Cowboy from Rock in Rio are currently available to watch at the AOL website.

Rob,

Just reading your comments on 'LOST'; season two is almost finished here; still trying to figure out 'dharma'... I am glued!

Superb ! Superb ! Superb ! Superb ! Congratulations to you Rob and to your friend, this site is so damn funky (I love your little hand moves in the left corner ;) ) Concerning the little show for AOL, I would like to hear those tracks so much, especially Black Crow, the most beautiful disco-romantical song in Jamiroquai history. I love the break with strings and keyboards, lovely ! See ya Rob and thanks again

dope on the re-launch rob. i know the feeling of being a bit clueless when it comes to web design...ugh!

and kind of off the topic, i see you have jamie lidell as one of your top 8 friends on mypace - lovely, lovely man and such amazing talent. saw him in concert in april with only about 75 other people - his live show is unbelievable, as well his album. i just think he is BEYOND outstanding and addictive (seeing him again in august)..so yeah, good choice there...

I can´t watch the aol live videos why? can somebody please help me? maybe it´s just my bad luck :(

ROB!!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BRINGING BACK "BLACK CROW"!!!!
THIS IS UNIQUE, OUTSTANDING SONG.
I HAVE SHIVERS WHEN LISTENING TO IT.
THE TUNE IS SO DEEP AND SOUNDS AS COOL AS MY
FAVOURITE 70S SOUL STUFF.
AND ALBUM ARRANGEMENT IS SOMETHING UNBELIEVABLE!!!!
THANKS ROB, YOU & J HAVE MADE UP A MASTERPIECE!!!!!
PLEASE PLAY IT AT LIVE SHOWS AS OFTEN AS YOU CAN , OK!!!

For info, I couldn't watch the videos in firefox, but in IE they worked just fine.

Congratulations for the new web design Rob - LOL - leave that to your mate, and you just concentrate on doing what you do best !!!

We look forward with eager anticipation to your blog postings.

LOL !!! What is it about these portakabins ??? You can barely stand up straight in them, let alone let a little funk on the loose !!!

Who suggested BC ??? I love it, thoroughly stirring stuff !!!

Thanks Rob.
