Search - John Scofield :: Loud Jazz

Listenable outside playing

"Dennis Chamber's (drummer) playing on this recording is outstanding and almost is so good that it is hard to keep focus on John. John is one of the most accessible jazz guitarists who seems to keep both the fans of off the wall and outside licks and groove (fans) happy. This also features the first and probably the most outside rendition of the tune from THE WABASH CANNONBALL just called WABASH. If you do the analysis, it's really in there."

It's a killer!

"This is jazz, heavy on the funk with a definite rock edge. Most importantly the songs are cool and not just a vehicle for soloing. Fusion in the 80's could be kind of cheesy, but have no fear with this disc it's one of his strongest."

I'm a believer!

"What can I say, this is a typical Scofield record--great band, tasteful, original writing, and fantastic guitar work(as usual). I'd give it a 10 if I could! If your into modern jazz, check it out!"
