Found used yesterday:

Billy Bauer-Plectrist

Steve Lacy/Mal Wladron-Hot House

All for under $13 :tup:tup

:tup Both look interesting... especially the Waldron/Lacy duo. If you haven't already seen it, there's lots of good discussion on that topic here.

My recent purchases:

Dave Holland Quartet - Conference of the Birds (ECM)

Billy Bang Quintet Featuring Frank Lowe - Above and Beyond: An Evening in Grand Rapids (Justin Time)

Four from the "Free America" series:

Roswell Rudd

Dave Burrell - After Love

Clifford Thornton - The Panther and the Lash

Frank Wright - Uhuru Na Umoja

And lastly, from EMusic: Fred Anderson & Hamid Drake - From the River to the Ocean.

It's be an outstanding week for new music at my house! :tup

Thanks for the thread, it was a very interesting read! Conference of the Birds is incredible :tup Burrell's After Love is another favorite; right up there with Echo.

What the hell is 'acid jazz' anyhow; a marketing term?

Not originally. In the early '80s, British DJs discovered Soul Jazz was pretty good to dance to - particularly the recordings that were made following James Brown's development of Funk. At the time, the rave in normal dance music was Acid House, so the DJs started calling this stuff Acid Jazz. A number of compilations of favoured tracks started to appear with Acid Jazz in the title, and the name stuck (a bit). Fantasy jumped on the bandwagon by titling all their twofer Soul Jazz reissues for a period "Legends of Acid Jazz" regardless of whether the particular albums being reissued fitted into what was originally intended by the expression. Then, when they (or the public) got tired of the catchphrase, they dropped it and went back to giving the twofers proper titles.

I've put a full list of the Soul Jazz twofers here:
