Price: £10
Venue: iambic bar
Company: Acid Jazz Records
Acid Jazz Records are about to celebrate their 21st anniversary in some
style at a venue just a hundred yards around the corner from the east
London label's legendary and late lamented Blue Note club in Hoxton Square!
The label, founded by Eddie Piller and Gilles Peterson back in 1988,
became a buzz word in itself and provided an antidote to the bleeps of
acid house that swept all asunder in late 80s clubland. Artists like
Jamiroquai, Galliano, Terry Callier, Paul Weller, JTQ, Corduroy and a
whole host of others found a natural home at the indie label.
The birthday party, hosted by Eddie Piller features dj sets from some of
the best dj's associated with the label's long and varied history,
including Chris Bangs, Ali B, Snowboy, Dean Rudland and Andy Lewis
playing a mix of Jazz, Soul, Beats, Funk and Northern...Expect a
spectacular one-off
