He sure is miles away from the days he played with Miles Davis . He matured extremely well since those days with Miles and is playing better than ever. Love his big thumb Wes Montogomery-inspired licks, which is not so evident in this recording. But again, most of the 1970s Jazz guitar Alumini from Berklee School of Music in Boston (nowadays known as The New England Conservatory of Music) such as Bill Frisell, Al DeMeola, Mick Goodrick, Emily Remler and Berklee music teacher Pat Metheny were heavily influenced by Wes Montgomery. Heck, more recently. the new wonder kid of Jazz guitar Julian Lage taught music at The New England Conservatoty of Music.
@@displaychicken Oups... misunderstanding, I was trying a kind of joke... use it if you agree with this expression... The important thing is that I love john’s playing.
Glad to join your comments, mates (first time ever). Literally brought to tears by these two guys I had the honour to meet when they held gigs in my hometown (Arona, Italy) respectively, 1996 (Scofield) and 2003 (Granadier, with Brad Melhdau trio). In my personal opinion, when you play duos it's because you're at the very core of the musical matter. 'Chapeau' to both o'them.
Such a wonderful duo playing these standards...great sound, interpretion and improvisation love this...thanks for doing this and posting for us to enjoy....
I always love to hear Larry in a duo setting with other great players. Thanks so much for this! This is one of the things that is good with the internet.
@@adamdmusicc there is a clip on youtube with pat metheny and Larry performing Charlie Hadens Waltz for Ruth. Thats a good one. I dont know of any albums with Larry in duos though. Do yo?
Yeah, really beatiful, John your sound is wonderful, really beatiful also the double bass sound, thanks a lot for these songs, Regards by Paolo from Milano Italy
Wonderful to be able to see them together, wonderful to be able to listen to them and of course thank these two monsters for their enormous contribution to jazz, for me they are universal musicians and I am excited to see this video, thank you.
I just saw a guy sayin' bending strings in "Jazz" guitar playing is "not" Jazz guitar!!! You just prove this kind of thinking wrong! Thank you Sir, you are so good...
The OX is a load box and attenuator - allows you to crank a tube amp to overdrive without going earshatteringly loud. A Fender tube amp in this situation would either be way too loud or just sound thin and crappy at this low volume. The OX fixes that problem.
Wow! Amazing! Guitar nerd alert, John is not using his usual Dunlop 2 mm Delrins picks, the purple ones....as I said, guitar nerd alert:) I love this music!
Nothing so inspiring to a bon vivant of jazz..as when i see folks reading......uuuuuhhHhhh..i hurts.. like watching a live performance that .has been rerecorded...post performance...like the whole Last Waltz..the Band...1978...tech an A eye...we humans becoming extinctifed....
I think the bass is recorded twice through the bass mic and the mic in front of the guitar amp so you have two attacs slightly displaced. That’s why it sounds a bit noisy..
He is the best of our current jazz guitarist.. He has the technipue and he palys what he hears and breaks orthodoxies.
Aw man, I just felt all the tension in my mind and body float away while listening to these two absolute magicians/therapists. Thanks for posting.
John's look, hairstyle and dress code has improved hugely since the 80s. Fine playing as always
Wow. Just wow. These guys are just incredible together.
Scofield is fantastic here...He gets so many sounds....
I swear Sco is now, in old age, playing as good as he did at his greatest in the 80's. Marvellous !
Oh please, he has reached musician nirvana. Dudes has surpassed music and is now sound itself
Sco is playing waaaaay better than in the 80s. Saw him live last month. Sco keeps getting better and better
@@borgassi I have already agreed with you, 7 months ago Juan !
He ages like wine, although I prefer his 90s stuff rather than 80s.

Sco, the king of the sticky touch! My hero, bravo!
What is “sticky touch”? I feel like I love this phrase. Anything to do with his laidback, behind the beat feel?
Exactly, his playing very laidback reminds me of something very sticky( I am the owner of this expression: nice isn’t it? )
@@dominiquemiletti6685 Love it. You coined it. It's on the rest of us to use that phrase widely!
@@dominiquemiletti6685 Do I have to send you 5 cents every time I say “sticky touch”? If so you’ll be rich soon!

The important thing is that I love john’s playing.
you can see that they're relaxed and ready to play when they have taken off their shoes.
That's how you practice at home. Also your feet get hot. Only classical guitarists practice with shoes on.
The best I’ve heard in years.

So bluesy. Like a good silky sax line.

The Music appeared here, for a magic moment in time. John calls it out at 4:22.
Grandmasters of jazz ! Love the Scofield-sound.
Oh my gosh: Sco in a state of grace...what a performance!
Awesome

So nice! Swinging storytelling!
How come 14 people don't like these thrilling renditions of timeless songs?
They're rubes
10percent of population are idiots. But only 10 percents of them cannot understand music
Great !!!! Thanks so much!!
YES ! We need more of this !!
Beauty beauty beauty.....in sound.....
Looks like an EHX Holy Grail reverb pedal
Amazing, thank you

5:42 Cry Me A River - Arthur Hamilton
Old man river
@Ronin Adrian that's very creepy don't do that
the Master, of all...
Too good
John's touch is magical while Larry's playing complements it. Very nice performance. ❤️
Это колыбельная!
oooh i get it, only songs with river in the title
Exquisite.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
you dont get much more monstruous than John Scofield Scott Henderson and Frank Gambale in the straight ahead or jazz fusion world PERIOD.
what is that song at the very end what is it called in the original? Thank you
They’ve got a river theme rollin’...
1. Old Man River
2. Cry Me A River
3. Red River Valley
I just saw a guy sayin' bending strings in "Jazz" guitar playing is "not" Jazz guitar!!! You just prove this kind of thinking wrong! Thank you Sir, you are so good...
if wes, jimi and tal had a baby, it would be sco. and grenadier is channelling mingus and robeson in the bass melody.
This is so great, btw anyone know what that big unit sitting on top of Scos deluxe is?
thats an Universal Audio OX
The OX is a load box and attenuator - allows you to crank a tube amp to overdrive without going earshatteringly loud. A Fender tube amp in this situation would either be way too loud or just sound thin and crappy at this low volume. The OX fixes that problem.
@@edwardjons8684 that’s what Van Halen used and made hip.
This is sublime!
Amazing !!!
Is that first tune "Old Man RIver" ?
Yes
Ol man river
천재의..평안
음악적 우정
What are those song ?
Did this movie once disappear? Great to see this again anyway. Thanks!
I feel like the sound recording isn't what it is supposed to be? Still an amazing performance anyway!
Exactly... his very laid back playing remind me of something sticky...
what is that pedal giving scofield that sound?
Looks like an EHX Holy grail reverb pedal
Thank you, guys!
Wow! Amazing! Guitar nerd alert, John is not using his usual Dunlop 2 mm Delrins picks, the purple ones....as I said, guitar nerd alert:) I love this music!
yes, green tortoise : ))
and does anyone know what pedal john is using before the amp?
@@gitaartom Holy grail - Electro harmonix
@@matiguitarra thnx Matias
What is the name of the first tune? It sounds very familiar, just can't remember the title.
Old man river!
Long as this ain’t no Bobby Jr…
Cool performance!! Thank you for sharing the nice music! Enjoyed and Like and Sub! Have a nice weekend! :D
Yeah I just listened to Honest I do. Hmmmmmmmm uhhhhh scosolo
Are there two audio sources for the guitar?
No
yes
Maybe
unknown
Is this improvised?
Of course
Is obviuosly all written,expecially dinamics and pulsation manipulation..
Scofield has a great sense of harmony
Tasty...
nerdy question: does anyone recognize what Larry is using for strings? much obliged if you happen to know.
Its genssler wraps on G and D. And I think spirocores on E and A.
Big phase issues with the 2 mics They forgot to sync the wavelengths
Regardless, what microphone is sco using?
@@vhollund looks like SM58
@@vhollund Yeah it's a real shame... The live is great despite that.

I don’t get you. Isn’t a massive part of jazz reading leadsheets and fake books? It makes this performance all the more real and authentic to me.
Outstanding performance but ... the bass is mixed too loud!
Not good...until scofield stops reading like a freakin robot...
The bass so much percussive...to much aggressive the attack...far away from be subtle. Scofield...OMG...exquisite improvisation
I think the bass is recorded twice through the bass mic and the mic in front of the guitar amp so you have two attacs slightly displaced. That’s why it sounds a bit noisy..
