Originally released in 2002, 'Trouser Jazz' was the hotly anticipated follow-up to the Manchester-based DJ, producer, record collector and cartoonist's barnstorming Ninja Tune debut 'Keep it Unreal' of 1999. As a DJ, Andy Carthy aka Mr. Scruff plays across the board, moving between soul, funk, hip-hop, jazz, reggae, Latin, African, ska, disco, house, funk, electro, breaks, soundtracks and loads more. As a producer he makes music that draws on these influences, with a large dose of cheek and good humour. His cartoon drawings illustrate gig flyers, posters, record sleeves, t-shirts and occasionally accompany him at gigs as live animated visuals. This deluxe 20th anniversary edition is on red/blue vinyl and features iconic artwork by Mr. Scruff himself alongside Airside and boasts an 'infinity peelable trouser sticker' on the cover - whatever one of those is!
