First time I saw them was in 1982 in Amsterdam. Just went to see Wim Overgouw and Scofield,Swallow and Nussbaum were playing as well. That's where it all started. Scofield is the soundtrack of my live.
he’s been playing crazy unique bass lines on lps of straight jazz and more experimental forms for many, many decades, and is a composer as well, i believe. I don’t know enough about his career except that he is legendary in the jazz community. Anyone who loves this ought check out the duet lp w the late Charlie Haden and Pat Metheny… of course there are dozens/ hundreds of amazing lps of acoustic bass n jazz guitar duets. Dig deep… Jim Hall… Ray Brown… etc
Ecco a Voi la meraviglia di condividere la passione di suonare uno strumento con una intensità ed Amore che sconfigeranno le tenebre... La Luce trionferà... Grazie John e Steve... ❤
Saw these guys with a drummer I knew from CT Adam Nussbaum play at 7th Ave South in NYC. Stevie Wonder came in sat next to me with a few women in tow. I was sitting with pals Tim Smith, Eric Pearson, Randy and Michael Brecker rounded out the table. Spectacular night,,,WOW!
Awesome to see Steve Swallow playing an accoustic bass guitar! Love to see how he plays up close like this. Also, listening to him harmonize on certain notes... pretty amazing. They're both amazing.
Gorgeous - I met John on his Blue Matter tour & once again a few years later.... sharp as a knife with a wicked dry sense of humour! Glad to have seen him with Miles in London - Mike Stern was there also 😊 Superb solo from Steve at 4:58!
Thank you for this post between these 2 giants, which in the evening of their lives offers us a moment of sweetness, tenderness and laughing melancholy in this somewhat dark world period. Greetings from France
We finally get to see John playing a Gibson! Sounds beautiful! All these years of Ibanez endorsement really hurt a Gibson fan such as I, as I know how great someone like John Scofield could sound on a Gibson. This is the proof!
@@Intao I’m not sure if you are responding to my comment, or commenting on the Gibson that Sco is playing in this particular video. Yes, it looks like an ES330 in the video. My reference was to his first few albums where he is pictured playing a dot neck cherry ES335. I went to see him and chatted with him in a small Massachusetts club back in 1981, and he was playing that same dot neck ES335. It was shortly after that, that he switched to the Ibanez. Somewhere along the line, he picked up a telecaster and can be seen playing that in video footage.
@@kenhall3554 his first "serious" electric was an outlaw Ibanez blue tele he bought back some 15 ys. ago. He switched from that Gibson (in very bad shape) when he was offered the Ibanez that decades later - with some mods he suggested - become the John Scofield signature model. Afa tele are concerned, he recently bought a Nachocaster
@@frakognome4434 I was responding to Faz99Masters comment, “first time I see Sco play a Gibson “. I first became aware of Sco around 1980 playing in clubs in Massachusetts and Connecticut. He was playing a Cherry dot neck 335 at that time, and is seen playing it in the pictures on his first few vinyl albums. I couldn’t tell you the year. My only point is, it was Gibson before Ibanez.
I'd always loved the round and soft sound of Steve's bass played with a pick. I had the opportunity to see them live in Paris (at the New Morning) and I remember the quality of the audience : not a single applause when the choruses switched from one another, only at the end of the tunes. Was a great evening. Thanks for posting !
How can you even think beauty of music is for you to enjoy while you are killing ukrainians in their own country? Shame on every russian that doesn’t speak up!
I am sick and tired of bass players who slapping their instruments like drummers.I love to see a true bass players like Stive Swallow who play a counterpoint to another melody like Bach and Jaco played.

Swallow is 83 years young here. Amazing.
Beautiful. Shred-free virtuosity.
Asti... Tellement !!!!
Thanks God, I saw both of them live... and many-many great jazz musicians, too. It's been a good life.
"musitions"? hunh?
@@lex3729 Sorry, from your kind comment one can see how easy to misprint a word actually is.
@@lex3729 Phonetically, it's exactly the same, whereas "hunh" and "huh" aren't even close. When you correct someone, make sure you're also correct.

@@lex3729or as an alternative to Nik's response to you - just don't leave your rude comments altogether
shredders watch this. John says so much because he has an unbelievable understanding of the guitar. So expressive
Steve Swallow is one of my bass Superheroes
no shit, really?

A Homage to Carla Bley
Welcome back Steve! Those two guys have been playing together for nearly 50 years...
The bass is blowing me Away!
So beautiful... I am listening to it and I just think of grabbing my guitar and play anything, whatever comes to my fingers.
That is so totally sweet and pure. Those guys transcend their respective boundaries.
Love it. I took lessons with Scofield in the 80’s. Nice guy great player
Lets say one of the BEST!

I saw those three 40 years ago in Germany...
They played with Bill Stewart
They both play every single note with such a commitment. What great musicians they are.
I guess we shouldn’t be surprised that Stevie Wonder would know what jazz musicians to catch live
Who wrote Away? Beautiful tune
Love is all I hear! Man, what a musicianship!
Scofield founding his best sound at the end of his career. 🙏
Gibson 😏
@@TheSecondNature, fingers😊
@@rifosi he's always had those! But it's unusual to see him with a Gibson considering he's played Ibanez guitars for decades
Zo mooi en zo ontroerend !! Prachtig gewoon, met hart 💖 & Ziel 👍 spelen die oudere heren 😉 !! THX !!
Saw them play this live with Bill Stewart on drums about 10 years back in Mains Germany. Every note perfect. Both players monumental.
Awesome to see Steve Swallow playing an accoustic bass guitar!
Love to see how he plays up close like this. Also, listening to him harmonize on certain notes... pretty amazing.
They're both amazing.
thank godness I clicked the play button, this is beautiful
Scofield is one of my favorites. What great tone and phrasing.
Magnifique à voir et à entendre . Les grands musiciens sont toujours en recherche et nous enchantent au fil des ans .
Grande leçon. Merci .
Watching these two is so heartwarming, it sure made my evening a lot happier 🙏🏼
Truly great music and brilliant artists. Just wow!
Steve Swallow is amazing. Very nice duo ! 🙏🎶

Greetings from France
yo, Sco is not THAT old (evening of their lives, lol)
These guys are immortal.
2 old friends having a casual and deep conversation
Scofield and Gibson😮
I proudly own the same Ibanez AS200 he plays, but this sound he achieved here with the Gibson is one of the best.
One of the sweetest tones I've ever heard in my life.❤
magnifique plein de sensibilité ....émus ...merci messieurs
old smoothies What a music lesson!
So Beautiful...
Gratitude !
That bass accompany is just amazing.... setting the supporting tone for Scofield's lead melody sooo well that full and warm clean tone sounds so good!
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Amazing performance of music
Beautiful.
Clean ES330 and 5 string acoustic electric. No gimmics, just 2 virtuosos listening and playing.
Love it.
Bravo!! What a stunning performance!! I can feel and see the life that both of them have led.
Beautiful. Inspiring.
Sto Lat!
Śliczne granie, prost do serca.
So beautiful and soulful! Amazing!!

The real proof is that Sco sounds like Sco on any axe..
I saw these two in a concert with the Mike Gibbs big band, many moons ago.
Seems like a different world now.
My goodness. Just sublime. The interplay between these two is so special. Thanks for the beautiful post.
When music soothes the soul! Masterful!
First time I see Sco play a Gibson?!
Sco started out with a cherry ES335 before switching to the Ibanez. Check out his first few albums.
That’s a es-330 probably 67
