Try 'The Good Good', a label comp for 2000 Black. You've got 4 Hero covering Coltrane, and people like Roy Ayers turn up to sing and/or play vibes on various tracks. So, basically it's acid jazz, but it's got a lot more spine than yer average cafe wallpaper. Sort of like what As One / Kirk De Giorgio stuff has become if you know eg. 'Planetary Folklore'. It's an area that I really enjoy hearing if I'm out and up for a boogie, but some of it just tips the cheese scales on me pretty badly.. Michael np. 'My Life With Jesus' - Geeez n Gosh (I dismissed this first time I heard it, but in the end grabbed it on a second listen and am really enjoying it) -+- Involve Records http://involverecords.com Jet Jaguar MP3s (latest upload Nov2000) http://mp3.com/jetjag -+- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
