I'm with Luke, not specifically concerning Soul Coughing, but about who is
included as "acid jazz." To me the great thing about the emergence of the tag
"acid jazz" is that it is such a loose definition. People can play souljazz,
jazzfunk, they can have latin, african, caribbean influences, it can be
acoustic or electronic or both. That's what's great about it. Artists can be
both ecclectic and part of a genre at the same time. I'd rather not apply
strict definitions, they always lead to formulas and the death of that genre.
Obviously, these thoughts are not really complete. I always seem to be
writting to this list after having emptied a few bottles.

Peace Out,
