Scofield Clip

Hey Guys -

This is a tune I heard for the first time today when John brought it in for the faculty ensemble to play. We will be playing it at the next murphys gig I suppose. Lets not forget that jazz guitar isn't limited to just Swing and Bop. In fact, most of my east coast gigs are either free jazz or groove stuff like this. The last one was acoustic guitar and world percussion free stuff. That being said, you know that Sco can play just fine when Stella gets called...

Note how Sco uses chromaticism to create tension while steve holds down the vamp. See if you can become even more aware of how he floats between tension and release this way.
