Default Source for alcohol base dyes

I was fascinated by some of the things that Phil Irons did at KC using
powdered dyes that were said to be alcohol ("spirit" in British!)
soluble. All of the dyes that I have seen in catalogs-mostly aniline
dye-are stated to be water soluble. Chemically, I'd expect them to
dissolve in alcohol also. Are there other alcohol based dyes available
and where? I tried RIT fabric dye and it did not work
