Anyone into <<cough>> Acid Jazz in the early 90's? I need help remembering some of the bands/songs

[mrsmaidamess]

I liked The Brand New Heavies...any more you can think of?

I went on holiday with Galliano, i Read his lyrics prior to putting them to music and thought they were amazing.

come to think of it i loved anything on the 'talking loud' label.

im having a good time listening now ...its all coming back...great lyrics...whcih i remember!!

( i once went on a retreat with the lead singers little brother)

sorry about my giddy hijack

Don't worry! I got all nostalgic listening to incognito 'Always there' on youtube
. I loved that song!

how " bout [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9HnoRgRIwg this one?"

again

link no worky

Young disciples - apparently nothing

I saw, well paid to see galliano at the fresher ball. Can remember standing trying to hear and not hearing anything - my first ever snakebite evening!

This thread has really perked me up thanks

Oh yes! I love that song.

Digable planets! Now we're talking

Love this label ..... some others that spring to mind Freak power,Mother Earth, Snowboy, A man called Adam and Diana Brown and Barrie K Sharpe - he set up the Duffer of St. George clothing brand.
Fond memories of the Acid Jazz nights at the Town and country club in Kentish Town.
JTQ and Brand new heavies were excellent live. Giles Peterson set up the acid jazz label he used to play a set before and after the bands played. Stood next to him once watching incognito - he used to wear cool suits and hats.

I was trying to find a great De la Soul song from their album on youtube called 'A roller skating jam called Saturday' but no luck.

But we are venturing into hip hop, which I also loved!

this one is brilliant, I love it

i liked your earlier link calif. i sort of missed acid jazz but enjoy norman jay's mixes.

calif thats better than I remember Galliano being...perhaps I'm getting them mixed up with someone else

God I loved Galliano

oh go on..... someone listen to my brother on my earlier link. I often shoehorn his talent into real life conversations, but I don't often get to crow about him properly!
