Elson, I think you may find some folks comfortable with the problematic
nature of the term 'Acid Jazz'. I've only been a listee for 3 or 4 months
and frankly find the diverse tastes of this talent pool indicative of what
Acid Jazz is all about. Take the breadth of everyone's current listenings
measured with their 'roots' - I've read posts regarding straight ahead
jazz, metal, latin jazz, punk, soul, etc - and IMHO, AJ just won't be
pigeon-holed. I like it like that!

Peace. Mitch
