I bought this album in the seventies on my first visit to Boston my best friend was a roomate with Sco when they were at Berklee ,his name is Ted Seibs, Im glad he suggested this Great album, later I studied with Mick Goodrick and attended Berklee. Boston is good for curing Big Duck In A Little Pond Ego Problems for young pickers!!!!! Check It Out!!!!!
I was in internship (social work) in Mumbay when John Scofield happened to play in town. Unlucky our tutor was too lazy, or whatever, to organize an outing (Mumbay is not such an easy city where to do what you need when you don't know it). Still regret it today (that was in 1996).
Omg great version of this jazz standard ..... really one of the best John's solo et wonderfull piano intro ....and solo too .i'd love this Quartet .....thank's for your post
Still my favourite version of this song. By far. And the best Scofield band ever. Still love this after... 40 years? (My favourite song though is "Gray and Visceral")
I wonder if drummers will realise one day, that no one cares about their solo. I mean jazz drummers are pretty much soloing most of the time anyway, just be the beat, that's your job.
False a drummer perorms on a very sophisticated way harmonies and melodies by supporting solos and gives so structure all over a tune! If you don't realize this basic please dont't try to learn playing jazz! Or if, stop playing, better for all of us!
@@thomaskrause7368 You have no idea what i wrote. Read it again. I don't like drum solos. They are pointless (except in a very few rare cases). This opinion of mine is in no way countered by your point, at all.
@@dleetr Again you don't check it out, boy. Any Solo of a drummer is of course melodic and filled with harmonies, so if you are not able to "hear" this it's clear you "dislike" drum solos. So you miss all understanding of jazz not recognizing this part of a tune: the drums
@@thomaskrause7368 You know, just because something is done all the time, it doesn't mean that there is a rational basis behind the tradition. This is the case with (most) drum solos on jazz albums and performances. You are overselling drum solos. But if you're a drummer, well you're forgiven. From the perspective of a decent musical performance however, for this listener, the drum solo is an entirely unnecessary waste of time. I have a deep understanding of tone and timbre and understand quite a bit about the rhythmic realm of music and have actually listened to plenty of drum based music. In the context of jazz and all modern music, drums bring groove and underline and play off of the melodic and rhythmic component of the rest of the instruments. Drum solos in the other hand, are usually a complete waste of the listener's time. I have rarely listened to one that was a good use of my time, they usually at some point leave the groove alone, show off boring fills, decide that they avant-garde, all sorts of unmusical nonsense. When, dear boy, they are pretty much given the opportunity to solo the whole time that the other instruments are going anyway, in a context which can be enjoyed.

Wow Ritchie... what an intro

magistral ! une "leçon de maitre" et une des plus belles versions de ce standard, modernisé, actualisé.
George Mraz R.I.P. what a driving force and a rock in the waves, WOW! THX George!
Wow, hadn't listened to this for 20 years or something - still sounds fantastic.

This is insane!

Scofield hitting it good.

Ur welcome!
Amazing John!
They play and I sweat..
Fuck yes
いあー凄いアルバムですねー
wow...
💚💛😃
💙😀🌷🌱
歴史を超えても色あせない名演奏。発売当時もちろんレコードも買いましたが（ジョンスコもリッチーバイラークも他のメンバーまだ若く
覇気にあふれています）コルトレーンはともかく、これを超える演奏には出会えない。
I bet no one talks about the dog howling in the background at 4:41/4:42…
who is the pianist???
Richie Beirach
グレート( ^o^)ノ
Who's on piano here?

That's just the point dleetr.........every bar is a solo for a real drummer....Chambers,Williams,DeJohnette, Cobham etc.
