John Scofield - solo in Chariots

Chariots. Recorded at the Montreal Jazz Festival in 1992. This song was originally released in the album Meant To Be in 1991 with Blue Note. This song is included in the compilation Steady Groovin' too. It's part of that early 1990's sound everyone likes about John Scofield. This video shows its good share of chord voicing improvisation and signature John Scofield technique, including string-skipping. Here it features famous saxophonist Joe Lovano.

I love this - one of my favourites from Meant To Be. His solo is understated, stuttering - you can actually sing along with the slower bits. Phrasing is so quirky it mesmerises me. No one plays guitar like Sco. Saw these guy live in England in the early 90's. Huge sound from the 4 of them - was like an orchestra.
