Watched this on acid like 15 times in a row with my brother (we were in a band at the time) . Kept hitting repeat. I laughed and cried. Then I went outside.... A religious experience.
Besides the "head", did you guys manage to figure out anything he was playing? What about Modeski's solos ? Anyway fuckin' awesome Check out "Hottentot" from north sea jazz fest. WOW !
@@S7REULI I must have seen this video a hundred times.....ghosted notes, Rat distortion and so on from Scofield....Lesley sound from Medeski.....Double bass from Wood and the running motor from Martin (drums) .... I can't get enough.....
Scofield's facial expression at 6:51 says everything about this performance. He's just like, "oh yeah, we bad" Hahaha...love this set! But how the hell is everyone in the crowd just sitting there? I'd be in the aisles dancing!
This version is amazing, comparing to trio (very good to), but this has something rock n roll, that is very well fitting for this tune, really great, yes 😎👍👍 Thank you to share ! Ten minutes of pure Magic ! - JOHN MEDESKI - piano - BILLY MARTIN - drums - CHRIS WOOD - bass
Pat used a Leslie cabinet for that sound, Sco is using a digital pedal recreation here. Amazing to read a comment about Redbone, I saw them live a few times, and they were excellent.
I love it when Sco plays with these guys. I like MMW when they do their stuff but its nice to get guitar in there and bring some brown funk in. The composition is actually quite beautiful as well as funky. The chord changes are really nice.
I second that. I think it's because he plays shorter lines. He can stretch out on solos when he wants, but he's just as happy playing those neat little fills. He's got great tone, and it's very consistent; his tone always sounds so good, like something from early '70s Jeff Beck.
I love his Artstar models... I had one but the neck was warped beyond belief. I took it to my guitar tech and he told me it would be best to just find another model. I've been searching for another for months now.
When my elitist music prof, back in the day was talking about guitarists in class, I referenced John Scolfied, and he made a face and said, "I like John Abercrombie." As if John Scofield is some sort of aftherthought or sidenote in Jazz guitar history. People don't get it.
These guys make the best jazz albums ever!!! Scofields solo stuff is really good, and MMWs stuff is great too, but together there like your ears are getting a bj :)
Brad James: Scofield and the Music are great, and this is instrumental music, so he obviously didn't care about the title. Probably, he looked for something stupid, just for fun, rather than name it "call it anything", as Miles Davis did it, years ago. Now, your stupid comment justifies the title, thanks!
Unbelievable. Seeing Scofield while he doesn't know anything about him and judge him with a dumb comment. Like Forrest Gump said "Stupid is as stupid does". I don't like to say it but some people are just retarded. @Brad James Go anywhere else bitching... we don't need your ridiculous hater words here.
@marvinkmooneyoz Funny... that's what I like about him, the stylistic twist. Feels very much to me like it's just the way it comes through him both naturally and intellectually. If he were to become "straighter" with the funk -though I appreciate other players who are - I'd feel like I had lost something personal. Scofield's angle just means something rare and solid to me. (None of that is meant to correct or disrespect your comment.)
Thank God for sending us John Scofield! I am religious now. Thank you for posting! Does anybody know where to find this concert on disk CD / DVD, or who can tell me what is the formation of musicians he is playing this concert. Thanks!
Sco is playing with Medski , Martin and Wood...they are an American avant-jazz-funk band. They have recorded several CDs together.My favorite is Ago GO..
Your kinda close to a good point, is this funk-fusion jazz-funk funk-jazz typ discussions are pretty useless. But if I tell you I'm going to see a band and ask if you want to come, and you ask me what they play, and I say "Music". You'd probably slap me in the face, or you'd go and find out that it's Pakistanian-folk music, when you expected blues. Categories are there for a reason, simplicity, so to go very deep into the matter is useless, but to get a general idea of what it is, it works.
I love both this live & studio version very very much. I think A Go Go is one of the best jazz funk album ever made.
something about this is addicting.

Anyway fuckin' awesome

This version is amazing, comparing to trio (very good to), but this has something rock n roll, that is very well fitting for this tune, really great, yes 😎👍👍 Thank you to share !

One of the few people i can listen to for more than 4 min. on one tune.He can keep it interesting,,as few can!
this is very good especially in the morning ....rhytm is so energetic and melody so optimistic
man i couldn't agree more
Outstanding piece of music!John Scofield is absolutely "Mr.Cool" on guitar and MMW are terrific also.Thanks for posting!
beautiful
brilliant song

MMW Are amazing! I'm so excited that i'm going to there concert this March!
Sco's face, man. So epic.
this song reminds me of summer and my dog. I miss that dog..
♥️ 🐕 🎸 ☀️
✌️
Music is such a healer to us all.
Scofield is an excellent match up with MMW. Enjoyed all I've heard. Thanks for posting. NBBCo.s' "Fat Tire" is GOOD beer.
Wah!!! brilliant!!!
Like any great guitarist, Scofield's sound is so unmistakable. Im happy to say I have seen this group (MMSW) multiple times.
Fantástico !!!
This so good. Applause!
I love his Artstar models... I had one but the neck was warped beyond belief. I took it to my guitar tech and he told me it would be best to just find another model. I've been searching for another for months now.
Funk machine.
swagged out in those socks and sandals
Kills me the audience is just sitting in their seats for this killer groove.
very very cool! +++
Coooooooool!
here here good sir
I wish the rest of the world appreciated this like we all do
Bravo!!!
Du grand John Scofield !
Amen!
4:20 my fav line
Who the hell is that great double-bass player? Brilliant!
yeah.
totally agree
These guys are all monster cats!
@0pposite0reo Iv'e seen Scofield 4 times and never get tired of him.
@SupernalOne Ah yes, the funk gland. My favorite of all glands.
medeski is my favorite keys player with jamie cullum.... so great... pls listen to the whole album (John Scofield & MMW - A GoGo) its so great
The bass player is Chris Wood of Medeski, Martin and Wood.
Master
Sandals with white socks 😂
😀Yep, great, I had'nt see that, I don't know what they had for lunch ! They all seems very cool and at their best
His name is Billy Martin, sick drummer.
When my elitist music prof, back in the day was talking about guitarists in class, I referenced John Scolfied, and he made a face and said, "I like John Abercrombie." As if John Scofield is some sort of aftherthought or sidenote in Jazz guitar history. People don't get it.
Does anyone have this full set on tape?
These guys make the best jazz albums ever!!! Scofields solo stuff is really good, and MMWs stuff is great too, but together there like your ears are getting a bj :)
que rico
I just said a stupid phrase "chicken dog" searched and get exactly what I was thinkin
Hahahahahhahaha XD

esto es lo ke es...!!!!!
@5:35 vocal solo begins
😎
MMW is great and all, but check out the John Scofield Trio - Chicken Dog [2010] version here on UA-cam for something that really swings.
chris wood is all over that shit, damn.

crazy song, inspired harmony changing as usual from sco and co
What is that little pan called that Billy is playing?

Schitterend! En dat in Den Haag. Daar had je nog sfeer.
koooooooooooooool....!!!!
This is really all I need in life haha, fuck everything else right?
THIS IT THE FUCKIN SHIT
livin legend.. but pls how funny is the look of martin (the drummer) ca. 8:35... so great
@terreseco
Oh i had a feeling, but seeing him in this old video i thought it was somebuddy else. Omg! yes, he is Billy Martin. :|
Who plays the bas?
Who's the bass player??
10 dislikes..-:)) It's not Britney Spears! This is music!! Welcome to the God channel;-))
i think that usually when scofield gets together with mmw he kind of overshadows mmw. none the less it is good music.
medeski looks crazy.
Guys!!! what drummer is this? :|
Someone post 'Wabash' I'm far too old to work out how to do it. Please.
fucking great song
even Jaco the king is jealous.
no, i mean john scofield kind of takes the stage.
I knowwwwww...... it's fucking awesomeness
i'm also more of an MMW fan so maybe its just me.
It looks like Billy's playing a tin can lid at the start of this tune.
It's not like they're wearing earplugs.
how about fusioN?
i mean to me mmw especially medeski takes the stage too but somehow focus is always on scofield as mmw is not as popular..
Is it because MMW is not as popular?
