    Srry gingervytis, you must have been in a bad mood when you listened to this :) Scofield never plays the same thing twice, makes 0 mistakes, is able to shift mood effortlessly and even adds in a few be-boppy licks just to keep it spicy. Also, he pulled off a convincing flat 9 at about 8:30. And notice how he really embraces the space between the notes at the beginning. There's a lot here you apparently didn't hear... but I'll forgive you :)

Further, it makes me wonder if people who think like that have any genuine connection to music. Maybe instead get down into the vibe and forget all the bullshit if you intend to ever play what could remotely be describe as music or musical. If you don't understand don't bother.
