Untitled

I added the name etymology, which the band members explained on JazzFM (UK) during the John Scragg show (22/10/2004, around 8:45). Does anyone know how to make a proper reference to radio shows? JFW | T@lk 13:32, 22 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Reverts following the addition of new links

Looking at the page history, it seems that, 3 times, there have been rather useful links added to this article, and 3 times, they have been reverted/removed. Why is this?? They seemed perfectly appropriate.

Removed trivia

I removed a few trivia items. One of them is probably worth integrating. It said, Jay Kay auditioned for the Brand New Heavies but was turned down. However, Simon Bartholemew and Andrew Levy both contributed to Jamiroquai's album, Emergency on Planet Earth. There was no citation, though, and no date, so I couldn't figure out where to integrate it. Leaving the note here so others can try. I don't think talking about Jamiroquai's album is so appropriate, but mentioning Jay Kay's failed audition is fair. Mango juice^talk 03:03, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Recent Brand New Heavies Interview

This is the most recent interview of the brand new heavies -- which goes deep into the music, and offer more than a PR piece

Missing Album

I have and have had for some years, "Dream Come True (The Best Of The Acid Jazz Years)", a compilation album but it doesn't seem to be listed.

Dunk Your Funk

It was suggested in the article that Dunk Your Funk was a free download album. I have not been able to find any such "free" download. The album is sold, as are individual tracks, through the usual channels, i.e. Soundcloud and iTunes. So I have removed the word free and updated the link to pedigreecuts. 77.167.212.162 (talk) 11:14, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
