During the 1980s, there was little grateful audience for this form of music in the UK, and the big players in the genre were all American. The pioneering sound of two duelling acoustic guitars — Simon James on nylon and Nick Webb on steel — was a fresh touch on the genre, often backed up by a double bass, percussion, and occasionally string quartet The Violettes. A couple of records were pressed by Webb, but at a considerable loss. In the mid-1980s, James left the band; in the 1990s he would go on to form Kymaera, a similar, albeit more Latin oriented band. In 1985, Webb then discovered Greg Carmichael, a guitarist with a London pub band called The Holloways (not affiliated with the current indie band of the same name) who became James' successor.

Acoustic Alchemy - "Mr Chow" (1987)
“Mr. Chow” from the debut album Red Dust And Spanish Lace released in 1987 by Acoustic Alchemy. The album was a breakthrough in the U.S. after the band try a couple of records in the UK with considerable loss. The late Nick Webb (steel string guitar) and his partner Greg Carmichael (nylon strings) worked and performed as an in-flight band on Virgin Atlantic flights to go to the States for free. Sending their demo music to Nashville-based label MCA, the band was called to record their first album. Acoustic Alchemy introduces a sweet contemporary jazz or Smooth Jazz as commonly known. The song "Mr. Chow" was described as a "Chinese jazz reggae" to some.

[Jack Johnson] She's got a whole lot of reasons She can't think of a single one That can justify leaving And he got none but he thinks he got so many problems Man, he got too much time to waste His dreams are like commercials But her dreams are picture perfect and Our dreams are so related though they're often underestimated [Joshua Radin] This is gonna take a long time And I wonder what's mine Can't take no more Wonder if you'll understand It's just the touch of your hand Behind a closed door All I needed was the love you gave All I needed for another day And all I ever knew Only you [Green Day] Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial For what it's worth it was worth all the while It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right I hope you had the time of your life [Wyclef Jean, Akon] Pimpin' got harder 'cause hoes got smarter On the strip is something they don't wanna be a part of Rather be up in the club shakin' for a dub For triple times the money and spending it like they wanna They got their mind on their money, money on their mind They got their finger on the trigger, hand on the nines See everyday, they feel the struggle, but staying on the grind And ain't nobody takin' from us, and that's the bottom line But I know there's a drop in the block You move slow, you getting' pressure from cops you don't know not to lay low Because 25 to life is no joke [Green Day] It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right I hope you had the time of your life [Christina Aguilera] I feel like I've been locked up tight For a century of lonely nights Waiting for someone To release me You're licking your lips and blowing kisses my way But that dont mean I'm gonna give it away Baby, baby, baby [Green Day] It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right I hope you had the time of your life [Atomic Kitten] Close your eyes Give me your hand Darling, do you feel my heart beating? Do you understand? Do you feel the same Is this burning An eternal flame? Is this burning An eternal flame? [Jack Johnson + Black Eyed Peas] [Atomic Kitten]
