This Is Jazz is a mid-priced series of jazz albums issued by Legacy Recordings from 1996–98 in association with the Columbia (CK numbers) and Epic (EK numbers) divisions of Sony Music Entertainment. Each album features a different artist from the Columbia/Epic stable. Each album is titled This Is Jazz followed by the number in the series.
A carbon copy of the second volume, This Is Acid Jazz, Vol. 3 has a few winners (by CFM Band, James Taylor Quartet and Exodus Quartet) but mostly substitutes artists on the anonymous side of the vibrant acid jazz scene.

Jazz meets electronica" thing instead of a "bossa meets acid-jazz" vibe like these. The last Bossa Brava was "The Very Best of Bossa Brava", and it featured some of the more popular nu-bossa/Brasil tracks circa 2001-2002. I picked this disc up after Bossa Brava 3 and was not quite as happy with this purchase. Bossa Brava 3 is a great funky gumbo of salsa and acid jazz. This is close but falls short of the more recent album. After listening to this one for three days, no songs stick in my head like several from number Bossa Brava 3 have.
