Title: This is not acid jazz...
Review: Acid jazz walks a very fine line. On one side lies the funky, creamy goodness of Cinematic Orchestra, Funki Porcini, and Amon Tobin. On the other lies trite, easy-listening, grocery-store jazz fusion.Unfortunately, this album falls on the latter side. Seriously, listening to this disc makes me think of supermarket aisles full of Tide and cereal boxes, or sitting in the waiting room of my dentist's office, flipping through old copies of Newsweek. When soccer moms want to let loose, they put on a CD like this and break open a bottle of cheap domestic Chardonnay. It's strictly by-the-numbers lite jazz, with about as much authenticity as a Twinkie. It makes me cringe.
