Acid Jazz seemed really good briefly, a long time ago. The main movers were well dressed and had good record collections, but as some wag said 'Too much jazz, not enough acid'. This single, from 1991, is the best song that came out of the whole scene- Young Disciples' Apparently Nothin', featuring the vocals of Carleen Anderson, and the music of Femi Williams and Marco Nelson.

Yeah I fell for this for a while, got a bit bored of the bleepy acid house stuff it was nice to hear singing and real instruments again, but it lead to nonsense like Jamiroquai. Although N'Dea Davenport from Brand New Heavies sang on Jazzmatazz which was cool.
