Did the name come from the record label "Acid Jazz"? --Robert Merkel 23:45 17 Jul 2003 (UTC)
- It might have done. I wrote the initial information to back up another article I was working but wouldn't class myself an expert (although I like a lot of the music that I think could be described as belonging to this genre). If you, or someone else, can find the answer, please add it into the article. Basswulf 09:02 18 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Here's some info I copied from the page Acid jazz before redirecting, please merge in as you see fit, I'm no expert in this genre
