You should never start an email like that, don't bloody apologise -
if you really meant it you wouldn't have posted, and anyway it hasn't
got _that_ boring yet :)

That wasn't the case with "acid" house either, at least not until the
UK scene developed - the original chicago "acid" sound in 1987 meant
303, as it does now, the UK "acid" scene of 88 was quite a different
thing imo. But your statement is of course equally true if you
substitute "303s" for "samplers"
I guess I've takena bit of a tangent there - back to the core: The
name "Acid Jazz" was surely introduced as something of a play on
words or joke due to the trendiness/hype/whatever surrounding "acid
house". Am I right?
