What a talent! Had the pleasure of seeing SH with Jeff Berlin in a tiny club with a criminally small audience. They didn’t care and it was a night of amazing music! Scott is one of the best. And I was also a huge Gentle Giant fan! Gives me hope that after more than 50 years playing I still have so much to learn. Awesome interview.
I was a student at MI when Scott was there (Robben Ford was a counselor). We knew watching him jam back then that he was extraordinary. My favorite non-musical memory that year was Scott bringing his dog to school. He would lay down and go to sleep until it was time to move on to the next class.
@@Xtianisms It's been so long, I don't remember specifically but I'm sure they did (this was back in '81-'82). As I recall, Scott was the go-to student to jam with a visiting musician after Q&A's. I'd have to dig up the yearbook, but I believe Journey's Steve Smith was one of them (with Jeff Berlin on bass). Here's my favorite non-music memory that year: Scott would bring his dog to school; an elderly blind basset hound. He would snap his fingers walking through the halls so the dog could follow him. Once in the classroom, Scott would sit on the end of a row and the dog would plop down and go to sleep. And then on to the next class.
"My favorite non-musical memory that year was Scott bringing his dog to school. He would lay down and go to sleep until it was time to move on to the next class." The dog? Or Scott?
No matter what Scott is my number 1 favorite player. Such a unique voice on the instrument and his compositions with Gary and tribal tech are so phenomenal
Scott! Anyone that loves your music hears your distinctive style. You have a unique sound on the guitar and a definite legend! Thanks for the great playing.
Love Scott H, good ol days jammin with Scott in 95, at MI remember those days! Thank you for the awesome interview with Scott. He is a true GIANT of Jazz! Love it!
Yet another 5 star streamJosh. Not only are you an outstanding player, your presentation and interviewing skills are up there too. I’m enjoying this one!
Great interview. Packed with insight and even comedy - Josh’s silence when Scott says Charlie Parker just sounded like old Dixie jazz to him. Love Bird... Scott’s talk about enjoying playing when he isn’t thinking about ‘performing’... Remember when a musician interview was just a single page of content spread over 5 pages in a magazine, and was 50% ‘here’s my new album’ and 50% ‘here’s some stories you’ve heard a hundred times before’. Thanks for doing these interviews Josh. I see Joe Bonamassa interviewed Jools Holland recently - maybe he can hook you up for the ‘Later...’ gig? I’m full of hope that it’s going to happen before Jools retires!
Mr Smith' this has to be for me, the most informing and enlightening interview yet the questions you asked Mr Henderson ..took this to a higher level. thank you
Gotta love Scott❤️ He taught at MI in the 80’s.... he told me in a one on one lesson ”you will never be able to play jazz” 30 years later I can say he was right even though I’ve had a great career in music. I reminded him of his words at Namm 2017... he was so humble and apologetic... great player, lovely guy🙏🙏🙏
this was awesome and really clicked with me. I took a similar path to Jazz as Scott, being a 'rock' player who traversed into jazz via rnb/funk and even prog. Interesting how that journey connects to later Miles and Coltrane. Scott really hit it on the head, there is story telling and a moodiness to that music, a 'vibe' that is shared in rock and prog but in a different way. Thanks for this Josh
gosh that was awesome times. without internet. everything had value, every information, every new lick, every new song you did not heard before was precious.
I'm just goin' thru the Scott Henderson jazz- rock mastery dvd. A whole world is opening up thru his lessons.My mind is completely blown by a prolific amount of scale and chord possibilities.
I've been looking forward to this and finally got to it this evening. I can't tell you how many times I've watched Scott's first 2 VHS videos. I actually had them converted to digital and still have them around because they are so good. Love all the stories too.
Hey Josh, just wanted to let you know that because of you doing this interview and obviously your playing in general, you have become my most favorite Musician hands down. I can’t even tell you how much respect and love I have for you after seeing this interview. Also just listening to you just the past month is so inspiring, keep up the great work, thanks for all you do...
Scott was at GIT when I was there. A beast. I had never heard of him or Robben Ford, Don Mock, Joe Diorio, Etc. It was such a great time. Paul Gilbert was one of my teachers one on one. Its was the height of metal (early 80's), but Albert Lee came and Albert Collins and I was blown away. It was F'n great.
One of the best interviews I've heard in a while. Josh, you're one of my favorite guitar players, but you definitely have a knack for this, I love how naturally the interview flows. Great, great job. 😊
Great interview !! I was at MI in 92/93 when Scott was doing regular open counseling sessions there and was always in awe of his playing. Still, have the cassette tape recordings of those sessions :). Whoever he was playing with, it was always special. Since then I've always tried to go see him play whenever he's around in Europe.
Thank you guys so, so much. The interview was insightful, and, at times, funny as shit. Great questions....and Scott H gave some really great insights into his music, people he's played with, the music biz, and plenty of other things as well. Wonderful.
Great Channel Josh! Glad to suscribe. I was fortunate to play and learn from Scott at MI back around 2008. Love his down to earth and inspiring method of teaching.
Josh is so delightfully intelligent and articulate. Having a degree in music, I love the Musicology thing he brings. In addition to his soulfullness way beyond his years...
Incredible stuff, thanks for the interview. Was totally blown away by Scott's unique music from the first hearing, about 20 yrs ago. Well to the Bone is still one of my favourite albums ever, those tasty vocal lines! And Tribal Tech of course, what a band they were!
Josh Thanks!!! Your awesome interview with Scott Henderson. His is a history of Brilliant Jazz fusion guitar virtuoso. I always loved his very unique stile. Your interview will inspire every guitar players. I was one of the lucky one to see first Scott Henderson with Jean-Luc Ponty early 80`s and after with Joe Zawinul Syndicate 1988 in Edmonton Jazz Festival. Amazing guitar virtuoso!! Thanks again to take on a music history Journey with Scott Henderson!!
I think this may be my favorite guest so far. So cool to get to know Scott more. Such a cool and wise dude. Gotta start digging deeper into his catalog now
What a great interview ! When Scott talks ,I just stop whatever I'm doing and listen.Probably one of the best Scott's interviews I've ever seen ! Thanks Josh ! You're an amazing player.
Saw Scott in a small club in Santa Barbara around mid 90's. He had a custom Ibanez that he sat on the floor and restrung while one our local Bass players went and got his rig to lend to Scott's bass man. Loved the rough intimacy of it. Ended up a great gig.
Great Interview with Scott Henderson now I have something new to listen too. Thx for at least me turning me on to Scott Henderson. Really dig the channel. You should have way more followers. People don’t know what their missing. #Bluesforever
Just finding this...So much depth of thought and insight here, as well as wonderful humor...Totally enjoyable and inspiring, thank you! Scott's podcast with Bruce Forman(guitarwank) is quite a ride, too!
Thank you so much Josh for this interview. I really love your lengauge and playing. As well as you, Scott henderson has been a huge inspiration for my dream to play jazz. I am listening right now Joe Diorio and i took note of many bands, and names! Best wishes from Ushuaia, Argentina.
I met Scott in NJ in the late 80s, he was a genuinely nice guy, saw him with weather report in the city many times, was awesome, he went to a local club just to play sitting on the dock of the bay just for me
The Beatles would never have 'happened' were it not for playing 4-6 hour sets in Hamburg. They learned so many songs that were popular and got people dancing, that it became almost second nature for them to come up with something catchy. You can't teach that. Great interview Josh. (You're no bloody slouch yourself mate. Great player). 👍👏
So glad to hear Scott mention Ted Greene and acknowledge his mindset, too many of these guys these days overlook Ted Greene and the notion of playing guitar for the sake of playing guitar for yourself and no other reason. Screw fame and making videos, playing guitar is so rewarding on its own.
Great Interview. I wish Scott makes his next album with keyboards. It's great listen the guitar lines moving through the keyboards chords like tribal tech years.
Scott is the loveliest guy ever. Met him a couple of times after his gigs here in Berlin and also once when he did a masterclass in my music college. The guy is a treasure of a person, and one incredible musician. Incredible. Makes the world and the art world a way better place. Love his playing to death. Probably one of my most obsessively- transcribed artists ever.
Anyone else love the hell out of vibe station album from Scott Henderson? It's brilliant. I don't think there's any "neighborhood guitarist" type thing going on these days where friends in your street share licks.
Truth @38.00 and the Whole Lot of (plus others)solo perfect tone and inflection without guitar in frame was epic Scott., wow what a treat. Thanks Josh!
I have seen pretty much every Scott Henderson interview there is and this is probably the best one. Thanks so much!
My face muscles are hurting because I had such a huge grin on my face from hearing what Scott had to say.
Agreed 100%
What a talent! Had the pleasure of seeing SH with Jeff Berlin in a tiny club with a criminally small audience. They didn’t care and it was a night of amazing music! Scott is one of the best.

was there ever a time when Scott and Robben jammed? man i'd love to be there if that happened

Dog party!
Scott henderson is a genius
"My favorite non-musical memory that year was Scott bringing his dog to
school. He would lay down and go to sleep until it was time to move on
to the next class."
The dog? Or Scott?
Tore Down House for me is an absolute classic . Great great player and clearly a nice guy !
Absolutely. Talk about blistering! I love those sneaky Mahavishnu-esque chords Scott weaves into the title track.
@@ganazby the whole song is like “ here’s what you can do with a Strat -style guitar “ Love it
Yes the dance hehe
No matter what Scott is my number 1 favorite player. Such a unique voice on the instrument and his compositions with Gary and tribal tech are so phenomenal
Scott! Anyone that loves your music hears your distinctive style. You have a unique sound on the guitar and a definite legend! Thanks for the great playing.
Fantastic interview Josh , many thanks to both.
Glad you enjoyed it
Love Scott H, good ol days jammin with Scott in 95, at MI remember those days! Thank you for the awesome interview with Scott. He is a true GIANT of Jazz! Love it!
Love both of these guys and their music. Thanks Josh!
It’s a real pleasure listening to two working artists. Kind regards from London
The unbridled joy on Scott's fave while he plays the solo to Whole Lotta Love is incredible!!!
Yet another 5 star streamJosh. Not only are you an outstanding player, your presentation and interviewing skills are up there too. I’m enjoying this one!
Thank you Josh for such an insightful interview, listening to 2 of the most outstanding guitarist have been so much educational too

Well I hope you are rocking hard if jazz is not your forte.

One of the best interviews I heard for a long long time, thank you, absolutly great.
Such a great interview and pure gold insights!
36:15 the joy in his face playing one of his heroes' solo.
Two of the greatest to ever do it!!!
I like Scott's philosophical insights.
Around 1:00:00 mark - really great advice.
Thanks for the interview.

Wow one of the best musical lessons on the internet. So much truth in what he says bravoooo
Great Interview with Scott Henderson now I have something new to listen too. Thx for at least me turning me on to Scott Henderson. Really dig the channel. You should have way more followers. People don’t know what their missing. #Bluesforever
Fantastic interview. Thank you.

Great interview, packed with insight! Really relate to coming to Jazz from Rock, and having to slowly transition into it.
Thank you so much Josh for this interview. I really love your lengauge and playing. As well as you, Scott henderson has been a huge inspiration for my dream to play jazz. I am listening right now Joe Diorio and i took note of many bands, and names! Best wishes from Ushuaia, Argentina.

Great interview Josh. (You're no bloody slouch yourself mate. Great player). 👍👏
My friend Scott Lerner introduced me to Scott Henderson at NAMM about 15 years ago and Josh Smith was there as well.
Great interview. Thank you!
This interview is a must see. Great video, Scott is one of my favorite musicians ever!
Scotts is not just the greatest musician alive. He is also the funniest one.
IYO
watching this for 30 minutes before realizing I'm watching my both best inspiration for tone and gear setting.
Really really great interview....Well done
So glad to hear Scott mention Ted Greene and acknowledge his mindset, too many of these guys these days overlook Ted Greene and the notion of playing guitar for the sake of playing guitar for yourself and no other reason. Screw fame and making videos, playing guitar is so rewarding on its own.
Saw Scott Henderson play at Reggies in Chicago.before the pandemic. It was one of the best live performances I have ever seen in my entire life.
Great interview! Thank you both! Cheers from Brazil!
Fantastic interview!
Great Interview. I wish Scott makes his next album with keyboards. It's great listen the guitar lines moving through the keyboards chords like tribal tech years.
Yea but those sounds were so dated to the 80’s. But they are great tunes.
Thanks Josh! Thanks Scott!
Very nice reconizable symphatic interview before going to sleep. Have a nice week.
Scott is the loveliest guy ever. Met him a couple of times after his gigs here in Berlin and also once when he did a masterclass in my music college.

One of the best interviews. Thanks for this!
Great interview Josh! Two of my favorite rulers!
So many great stories and truisms in this. Great to hear a pro describe things I’ve felt as an amateur. Thx guys!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Sonderfall Interview, thank you both
