Wasn't 'Acid Jazz' just a label for jazzy sounds played by Gilles Peterson,
Norman Jay etc in the chill out rooms in clubs playing Acid. Sorry bad
syntax but you know what I mean...

as a matter of fact, acid jazz has no link to acid house. back in 87-89 acid
house was popular and the nu jazz sound was more towards the soul II soul
and talkin loud sound of beefed up r&b/soul style. i think, in order to make
ppl understand and categorize music what they have done was to coin the term
acid jazz to make ppl think that its diff. than your regular jazz trax and
has more of a club feel. Brand New Heavies, Galliano, Incognito, Banderas,
Urban Poets, His Emperors New Clothes, Ronny Jordan and the like had a
similar sound. And there were three main labels pushing this sound, and one
was named Acid Jazz, the othe two being Talkin Loud and MoWax. Funny enough
its very rare that a typical acid machine like 303 was used in any track
defined as Acid Jazz.

my 2 cents:)
