Customer Reviews

The ultimate Acid Jazz comp!
The most notable music movement of the late 80's and 90's, the AJ Old Testament it is. From Galiano and BNH to Corduroy and JTQ, this has got all the 'hits' from 88 to 96. Yea, sure, you've heard half of this stuff, maybe more, but when was the last time you heard any of it? Living in the states and not being a self-made millionare, I wasn't able to buy EVERY disc put out by this illustrious label, so this rounds out my collection. A must-buy if you know what acid jazz is.
