With Sco, nothing you can say is enough.
The band is stratospheric and together...
There weren't many Sco albums in Europe, when I went to the USA all I did was look for and buy everything I could find.
When he plays guitar he sounds like.. John Scofield , one and only, but when he speaks he sounds like Jeff Bridges.. :)
“Yeah, well, you know, that’s just, like, your opinion, man.”
Looks like him too
Right. Only the slightest difference between the Fender here and the Ibanez on the original....and that difference isn't even the instrument... it's effects and settings. Sco is one of the all time greats.
Lmao
holy smokes, good catch!!
What a surprise "Blue Matter" !!! 35 years + and still groovin. Awesome quartet
That was one of my favourite tunes back then!
Dennis "The Menace" Chambers RULES!!!
I love that tone with the Tele style.
John is ridiculously talented
Every time I listen to Scofield I wonder why I'm still trying after all these years.
Do or do not. There is no try.
Just soak up the inspiration and sing with your own voice! :)
Hmm... There's no one else on the planet who can play like YOU! YOUR voice is unique. When you hear someone who inspires you, just imagine yourself playing "in the zone," and then transmute that into your own playing in your own style. My 2 cents.
Just add the Ramones attitude, and then, you average play will sound like you're a genious!!!
Thumbnail pic looks like Sco singing “By the time I Get to Phoenix”. Love John’s playing since the cigarette burned red 335 days. Thanks for this.
Sco is a genius. By the true sense of the word. Never met him but love him.
I met John and Dennis Chambers at The Bayou in WDC when they played with the rest of the Blue Matter/Loud Jazz band when Blue Matter was first released. That show was hot. The whole band came up to the balcony and sat at the table next to us.

Never a boring moment with Sco.
They sound so special. I’ve loved this tune for a long time.
I was there. They had an insane vibe and the public felt it! Amazing gig
God help me I miss playing shows
Avi Bortnic killer back ground guitar
DENIS ! ! ! Chambers , the groove -machine I LOOOOOOOVVVVVVE !
The whole band is top shelf plays . Wow man
nearly The Legend Band from 1986..fantastic to Scofield and Chambers again. Nostalgic!!
Que hermosa suena esa modelo tipo Telecaster y en manos del maestro, incluso sin efectos 👏👏👏👏👏👏 excelente 🎸gran tema, gracias por subirlo 🇨🇱
fantastic Scofield, what a sound
jazz funk masterpiece ever!
Fantastic! Scofield gives the people what they need!
How an hearing just let my mind stuck in the air with minima notes and such a feeling free ...great over great ...Expresso love .!
Dis da bomb!
What an incredible & inspiring performance!
This is a beautiful team of music masters. This interpretation is a candidate to a fully new version of a good old blockbuster.
instablaster...
Robert Duvall. Awesome guitar player.
chambers....dynamic range....wow....killer ...as for john ? my all time fav
Dennis is still my favorite drummer, and I really play a mix a thrash metal, classical, and what little jazz fusion I've learned from listening to players like John. But those funky drums and insanely sold grooves of Dennis' are something else. He plays poly-rhythms like other drummers play straight time. It's so natural sounding, like 7 over 4 is just the most obvious thing in the world. I wish it was for me. lols
dude sounds like The Dude!!!!
Il più grande !!!
aviiiii!! increible amigo!
Thanks for posting this masterpiece!
Sco!fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE BEST !!!
You can give Sco a broomstick with strings and he would sound like him…Sco 4 ever!!🎶💙🎶💙🎶
Superb, magnifico, quality musicians.......thanks for sharing
master of articulation
man another killer bassist with a Moollon P. they must be on to something!
Lol, I see Arvi uses the same strap locks as I do. Rubber seals off beer bottles - they work really well. Nice to hear Blue Matter again after all these years.
still love it!!
Sorry, but the P-bass tone just doesn't cut it on this song. Gary Grainger and Dennis playing this together will never be outdone. Gary and Dennis playing grooves like this together was the reason I started playing bass when I was ~14. During the summer, I would go to Takoma Station in D.C., stand outside by the side door which would be open during the hot summer, and listen to them groove together from about 6 feet away from them. I'll never forget the two men that inspired me and changed the course of my life when I was just a kid.
lovely story, thanks for sharing
P-Bass sounds just fine to me. Love the P Bass sound.
wow.. i envy you man
P-Bass is fine, however that bass groove needs more variety and fills at some point to not be boring.
Funk is the best on a Precision Bass.
awesome! epic!
Thanx for sharing G !
Spettacolo!
Immenso !!!
another Genius .. JS..
super !!!
The hired gun with the Strat is really good at complimenting Scofield and letting him shine. At least I assume he's a hired gun since he's not named in the description. His name is Avi Bortnick by the way.
Well, almost all of Sco's backing musicians have been hired guns, save perhaps Joe Lovano who was/is a marquee name himself, but Bortnick was a founding member of the 2001-2003 era "John Scofield Band" and appeared on the Uberjam and Up All Night records, and came back for the reunion of that band in 2013. So it's not a fleeting relationship, exactly, by the standards of Sco's working bands.
Gotta love that Dennis Chambers pocket!
Yea, his pocket even with crazy polyrhythms is ridiculously solid.
I'm just a guitarist, but sure wish I had pocket like that.
Still my favorite drummer since I first heard this album in the 80's.
Nothing like DC and his oh so funky foot.
Killer
Some i like some over my head for me less can be more
The Ibanez Tele sounds nice ... great clip!
They sound great plus stay in tune.
I Recommend the brand whole heartedly.
Just a shame that the VOX amp sounds terrible...never understood why he chose those....
Is it Ibanez’s tele? I never seen a logo like that. Anyone please tell me
@@OURAGEmeJay 70s lawsuit era
when he speaks he sounds like Jeff Bridges ...at least that it sounds to my British ears
yeah well you know... that's just like your opinion man :)
The Grandmaster ! ..
KAMO -ATI MULTUMESC- TIBI-1976-REST -CENTRAL -TIMISOARA !!
3:18 the most minimalistic tapping from Scofield. By the way, I wonder how he could reach that spare pick sitting in the bridge cover when needed.
Same thing I just asked myself. My guess: It just fell in there by accident and sat their through the entire concert.
wow
Nice
Sco's talking voice, in the beginning, sounds a little like Jeff Bridges.
That rug really tied the room together! :)
Now I want to hear Sco saying “Hey, at least I’m house broken” !!
Grande músico!!!
wonder what effects Andy Hess is using
I couldn’t watch this all the way to end. No Gary Granger no Blue Matter
I agree...
there is thematic material in cantloupe Island and this Tune that's alike just the last 3 tones of Herbie's Tune and maybe the 23 for last tones of scofield's tune Inver noticed it just now by listening...(I guess Scofield listened to Herbie's composition and without knowing maybe reproduced(Crimptomnesis=reproducing material you are not aware of) I don't believe he did it on perpose, than it would be a deed of Renaissence, quoting eachother for the better of the Art, and let'be honoust Blue Matter is an astonishing composition maybe a bit mor complex with all respect that Herbie's Cantaloupe Island(but it's Beaty is Well Known still played often composition, I gues a bit more often than Blue Matter(LOL))
I've listened to robben ford for years, not much exposure to Scofield until today. Now wonder how long robben has been listening to Mr John.
I think they overlapped briefly in Miles' band around 1985? They were born 10 days apart, and Robben hit the national scene a few years ahead of John. John started becoming a "guitarist's guitarist" around 1977, and Robben probably got some exposure to John at some point in the late 1970s. John was almost certainly aware of Robben's work with the L.A. Express and others in the 1970s when John was just starting out with Billy Cobham.
Man Gary had a major affect on this song
That Music Man had the treble that this bass is missing
Looks like he's raised the action on the treble strings by inserting a pick under the saddle.
Did anybody notice a pick inside the bridge? :)
Yeah and the red guitar is a squire
@@fxaarchable and the telecaster?
@@fxaarchable yes, ive been wondering if its a heavily modified squier... i woudnt trust a squier to stay in tune using a whammy bar and it
got locking tuners
@@pol5798 It's an Ibanez. It's a bit different than Ibanez used to make them (which was a long time ago). Maybe it's custom... who knows.
@@zoso2809 Why not? Out of a decent guitar in its core (which doesn't have to be expensive at all) a good luthier or a guitar tech can make you a stage-ready instrument that can withstand hours of playing even under the stage lights. We get carried away sometimes with expensive equipment thinking it is the only way to go... And of course, it is very who plays the instrument and how well he/she knows it. There are no perfect instruments. You need to get to know your instrument.
I do love Dennis Chambers,m though I wouldnt want him for some of the tracks from Uberjam. Here though he's in his element.
❤🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼
Love Sco .. one of my faves of all time, but I like his Ibanez AS sound better.
He is playing an Ibanez here.
pq!!!!! G bem grande !!!!!!!
Awesome 👍 Missin Gary tho
On the other hand, this shows that John's "Blue Matter" band could have been pretty killer if he'd used a really creative rhythm guitarist instead of a keyboard player. But in the mid-1980s, that "DX7 sound" was $$$$. John made the most of it, but I don't particularly miss it.
That pretty decent tone out of (what appears to be a) red fender squier.
Seems like Squire has come a long way over the years. I happen to own Squire Chambered Body Tele. I've gotten alot of compliments on the sound quality, it's among the many great guitars I have in my arsenal.
今でもブルーマターとか演奏するんだ〜。
3:18 Sco laughing at himself for screwing the tap :D
Awesome tune. I saw them a few days later at Wuppertal
Good eye. He's so hidden behind the cymbal at that point,
I had to watch it 2x even with your time stamp before I caught it.
Take a lesson from the pros...best creativity comes when yer getting down quietly...not loudness
Does anyone know that weird cool effect that avi is using on his solo?? I can't get my finger on it... BTW how fuckin sublime
i don't blame him for playing ibanez, they make the great guitars
Wow, this version sounds very weird compared to the original. Don't get me wrong, this rendition is killing. Just sounds different with Sco playing the Ibanez Tele copy and the bassist playing a P-Bass with the vintage amp tones. Kinda reminds me of the Meters gone Jazz-Rock...
What an odd place to store a spare pick, John. ;P
That Telecaster! Anyone know what pickups he has in there?
I don't have any direct knowledge, and they could be anything, but supposedly the guitar is a K-Line (with an Ibanez sticker on the headstock). Chris Kroenlein (who is K-Line) makes vintage-sounding pickups, though early on I think he was using 3-rd party pickups like Lollars. Long story short, it's possible Sco is using K-Line pickups here, but some super-fan may know more.
qual o nome dos participantes do vídeo?
What is that thing on the headstock of his guitar ?
Doesn't look like a tuner .
😄
Absolutely brilliant! What style / genre is this exactly?
Somewhere between funk and jazz fusion.
avi plays a squier? :o
probably a squier with 4 times its price in mods, but even if its just stock some sound pretty good
I think it's a 90s Japanese one. Those are very nice.
never buy a squier from the 90s you think of the first 2 models from the early 80s :)
Squiers are actually very well made. Nice axes...........
except anything from the 90s
チョーキングってあまり好きじゃないけど、ジョンスコさんがテレキャス弾くならなんでも好き！
I Avi was good, but that solo was bad ass!
More than 13 minutes long and no Chambers solo??
Dennis must have a double bass pedal, or an extremely fast foot.
I thnk thats the bass slapping ...
アヴィ、上手くなったなぁ～、ずいぶん前にブルーノート東京で見たときには、なんぱに精出してたけど、ちゃんとしている演奏に感動したわ。デニチェンも痩せたけど、ほんと頑張ってほしい。凄く繊細なタッチで感動したや( ﾉД`)ｼｸｼｸ…
Something wrong with seeing Scofield play anything other than his other ibanez.
Is Avi Bortnik playing a Squier??
There are some nice Squiers out there
Not the same without Gary Grainger ....
totally agree. Dennis does what he can but that bassplayer is just not as groovy as Gary. This shows what a HUGE impact Gary had on the band back then
Slapping with flat wounds........
totally agree. bass player was a bit too far in front here.
Agree. I bought all those Grammavision albums they did with that original crew. Nothing can replace the original band.
Spot on...he’s now playing with Acoustic Alchemy
물론베이스가 저기서도 인정받네요 근데 슬랩이 너무 절어서 ㅎㅎ
seeing him with anything but his ibanez guitars is weird. great cut tho. thanks for sharing.
Isn't that tele also from ibanez? 😅
@@keesvlees7350 John is playing an Ibanez headstock sticker here, but careful observers will note that he's replaced the neck, tuners, body, pickups, and a few others bits with non-Ibanez replacement parts.
@@keesvlees7350 I believe it is a K-Line with a n Ibanez decal on it
Seeing John Scofield, if you didn't know anything about him, I think one might think he's a country musician with his Tele and ballcap. He can dress how he wants but an accomplished jazz musician can get away with a fedora or something. Or if that's too garish, a nice tweed suit.
I was just watching a 1987 Sco live video on youtube where he's in a kind of ill-fitting linen suit. It wasn't doing much for him. Dressing down suits his greasy jazz just fine.
the pick in the bridge
Why is there another guitar player. Just...why?
I guess you haven't heard the Uberjam band? Sco made 3 records with this band (not using Chambers), and Avi plays rhythm guitar and laptop stuff on all of them. It's one of his more popular groups actually.
Where to get the whole set video?
