    OK, but, then, it was an era in which a particular kind of music was called
    "acid jazz." The style of music, (as you say, quality black inspired soul
    music and jazz dance) existed before Gilles P. or whoever coined it "acid
    jazz" and it exists even now that "acid jazz" as a marketing term is dead.

    > can you really describe acid jazz anyways? you can't, it's impossible
    because all the artists you've listed have totally different sounds and
    influences?

    I think to be properly "acid jazz" it's got to have a bit of jazz in it, no?
