VA • The Very Best Of 'This Is Acid Jazz' - A 10 Year Celebration

Review by Jason Birchmeier

The Very Best of This Is Acid Jazz: A 10 Year Celebration finds Instinct Records digging deep into its archive of This Is Acid Jazz compilations to assemble this double-disc best-of. The first disc focuses on the years 1991-1996 and collects all the classics -- tracks like Exodus Quartet's "What's That" that helped jump-start the acid jazz movement. The second disc compiles songs from the years 1997-2001, featuring well-known tracks like United Future Organization's "Somewhere" and Jimpster's "Topics in Groove." If you've always been curious about this long-running series of albums, this best-of is the perfect place to begin. It sorts through the clutter for you. However, if you already own a number of the This Is Acid Jazz compilations, you might want to hold off on this best-of since it reprises the best songs from those albums rather than presents new music.

Reseña de Jason Birchmeier
Lo mejor de esto es el jazz ácido: Una celebración de 10 años encuentra a Instinct Records escarbando en su archivo de recopilaciones de This Is Acid Jazz para montar este best of de doble disco. El primer disco se centra en los años 1991-1996 y recoge todos los clásicos, temas como "What's That" del Exodus Quartet que ayudaron a poner en marcha el movimiento del acid jazz. El segundo disco recopila canciones de los años 1997-2001, con temas conocidos como "Somewhere" de United Future Organization y "Topics in Groove" de Jimpster. Si siempre has sentido curiosidad por esta larga serie de álbumes, este "best of" es el lugar perfecto para empezar. Se ordena a través del desorden para ti. Sin embargo, si ya tienes un número de las compilaciones de This Is Acid Jazz, tal vez quieras dejar de lado este "best of", ya que repite las mejores canciones de esos álbumes en lugar de presentar nueva música.
