John Scofield’s guitar sound and style are so interesting and distinctive that they defy easy categorization. Listeners have described his musical art as post-bop, funk-edged, fusion soul jazz with a taste of R&B. Nourished by influences as diverse as Miles Davis, Grant Green, Ray Charles, and Joe Lovano, Scofield’s unforgettable playing—however you describe it—has revolutionized electric jazz guitar.
“…an incredibly resourceful display of devices and strategies…he just burned.” – The New York Times
