I was searching for him in the web for years (as i understood his name introduced by Sco as "Ritschie Celestion" on the same tour shown here in Bremen then) - now I finally know his real name 😃 yeah - great drummer !!
Nothing inspires me more, to keep practicing guitar, everyday than anything else. He is so unique in tone, phrasing....note choice and just so insanely Himself. Thats just the pinnacle of awesome.

A month after this show I was fortunate enough to see him at the JVC Jazz Fest in Newport with this same lineup!! INSANE overall lineup that day that included John Scofield Band, Michael Franks, Stanley Jordan and the headliner of the day was the one and only MILES DAVIS!!! One of the many highlights of my life!! But after seeing Scofield, I was a fan ever since!!!!
Thanks a lot for sharing this exceptional concert ! Sco is one of my favorite, ans among other, he deals with the rare talent of choosing the right alchemists to accompany him on every project along his prolix and unestimable artistic pathway.
I thank all the Jazz Fusion Artists I’ve listened to over the years. The creators (MD, RTF, WR, HH, ETC.) Also the 2nd & 3rd generation Fusion guys who are keeping the genre alive. If not for WR’s “Birdland” and other greats; and RTF’s awesome work, I would never have gotten into any of the Jazz Greats. Now for years I have been enjoying both Fusion & Jazz. Thanks to all of you! Djalimo Djalimo. ❤❤❤
Not a competition. When someone is at this level, they are expected to be top of the line. I enjoy listening to both unique styles without comparisons.
John Abercombie is often related to Scofield, how good this man was and resembled Scofield, When this fusion music is played, it is for me not so difficult where it's origins lie...The Fusion period of SWcofield...let us never forget this period...
I witnessed this concert. My advice: turn up the bass, the deeper octaves , Play it loud and groove along! It does justice to all the doublers and base kick used in this setup. Bad ass concert.
Met Grainger in Berkeley, Early 90's on a hotel gig, I was Struggling with a Supreemley Arrogant keyboard player, (Who's Talent was Negligible, at Best,) Gary was VERY Kind,.."U Sound Good, man," (Yea, Right..!) He and the Drummer were at the bar, Apparently, on Tour..the Drummer U All know, AWESOME, Funkadelic, Mcglaughlin, Whoever! was NOT so Kind, (He Didn't Say a Thing..) Years Later, I found out G.Clinton wasn't paying him!! So, I NOW, years later, WHY he Wasn't in the MOOD!! Those moments are Priceless!!
Spoke to Dennis in Leeds and he was friendly but quiet in the 80s at the record store part of the gig (an enthusiast) but at the time I had no understanding how good Gary grainger was , thanks for the memories , best wishes !
i'd agree that he definitely put out his hottest fusion stuff in the 2nd half of the eighties :-) however I'm a massive fan of Sco with Medesky-Martin-Woods, also more recent sco playing standards and the stuff with Bill Stewart is absolutely phenomenal. also uberjam, organ trio...
@@alexmuscalu8439 True to that, but I kinda miss the more brash, in-your-face style of then - And mind you, I never minded the chorused tone he had back then (and which irked and fostered some detractors). Even back then, in comparison to other guys, Sco knew about 'understatement', but he'd burn the house down quite often too. Nowadays he plays w/ even more space in his solos, makes much more use of long tones that previously and he has long since ditched the chorus pedal. However, personally speaking I find his tone/guitar timbre a bit too dry nowadays, too devoid of reverb. IMO he had a nice 'compromising tone' circa 2000 when he recorded 'Bump' - no chorus effect, but still a bit of reverb in his rig. It seems to me that he barely uses any reverb - if any at all. But he still has the same unique core musical personality as before.
Is that Marc Copland on keys? I ask because it looks like him and I know his real surname is 'Cohen'. He played an awesome piano solo on 'Trim' staring at 38:50. Great quartet.
Yeah, he seems kinda irritated when the cameramen are filming him holding his guitar during another players solo. John is one of my favorite guitarists second only to maybe McLaughlin.
Yeah. Sco was tasty as long ago as when he played with Billy Cobham. He's definitely tasty at this concert as well, but I don't think that he REALLY hit his stride until the '90s and his EVERYBODY'S PARTY "period", and subsequent stuff during the noughties with Herbie, Mike Brecker and Jack deJohnette. I can here, stylistically, a few if Sco's "pre-cliches" leading up to EVERYBODY'S PARTY itself!! Many thanks for sending. 👍 😎
and don't forget that Daryl Jones and Omar Hakim where (resp.) the Bass player and drummer of this sttudio project Scofield with Omar Hakim is nowhere to find live...with Daryl Jones there is(+ Michael Chambers)
The only problem I have with John's playing, usually, are his mouth movements. But also, in this concert he is playing a Gibson which seems to lack the growl of his usual playing on an Ibanez, which to me is definitive of JS. He is one of my favourite guitarists, along with John McLaughlin .
@@blerkh Yes, I know now after some investigation of Ibanez. The cable jack position made me think 'Gibson', although I should have taken into consideration the shape of the 'cutaways' which are Ibanez shaped.
@@blerkh Not so easy! I almost wrote in my previous comment that the headstock information was very blurred on my screen. I was also very tried when I was watching it, but being JS I found it difficult to stop.
I am pretty sure this is just post- miles davis scofield's play. I can see the others musicians dont follow to Sco, maybe jealous. In the music world, you know...but he wons!
yes, in fact Scofield was playing on that 'stage' (NSJ 'Garden Pavilion') with Miles, the previous year. Robben Ford was playing with Miles on this same stage in '86. I was lucky to be there for both events.
Horrible. 😖 Sorry...but it IS. At least players like Metheny and McLaughlin incorporate "melody relief" in their atonal playing. This is just horrible chromatic dissonance for the sake of it. 🙄😖
Why can't I stop smiling. They were happy days!!
Man Sco playing Georgia on my mind is my favorite part! I wish he released a solo guitar album during this era!
Ricky, the drummer was my neighbor for years, and I got to play bass with him quite a bit. He's a monster!
I was searching for him in the web for years (as i understood his name introduced by Sco as "Ritschie Celestion" on the same tour shown here in Bremen then) - now I finally know his real name 😃
yeah - great drummer !!
@uev-tv9960 great! We both lived in a place called the "musicians village" in new orleans, built by habitat for humanity after hurricane Katrina.
Yeah! The years go by but very nice to see some close up on the whole band here.
Musicianship and song writing of the highest standard. Rule of Thumb is such a beautiful melody. Euphoric
They are ALL killin' it! -The bass player didn't hit a dumb note all night!
And Sco...!!!!!!!
Nothing inspires me more, to keep practicing guitar, everyday than anything else. He is so unique in tone, phrasing....note choice and just so insanely Himself. Thats just the pinnacle of awesome.
My favourite era of Sco.....thanks for posting!!
He is such a nice man too....
Great band!!!
bass player never stop smiling.

Wow, Rick Sebastian is amazing. Doesn't have to hide from Dennis Chambers at all.
Not a competition. When someone is at this level, they are expected to be top of the line. I enjoy listening to both unique styles without comparisons.
Sure, Rick is world class he played w/ Jaco around this time too.
Dennis wasn’t in the band at that time. This is from 1986 Dennis joined the band at 1987.
@@racieltorres1 no sir, the album Blue Matter was recorded in September 1986 with Dennis Chambers!!!
Wonderful...thanks Ricky...It was an honour to study w you....:)
LEGEND
thanks again most beatuiful song ever writen
The bass lines to the theme sound so good, but amazingly, are actually simply a chromatic scale!
Blown away by this! Super funky. Bass playing awesome in the pocket and very precise. Scofield in top form, funky Be Bop
Wow Scofield is the best jazz guitarist !
There are so many great jazz guitarists but Sco is definitely one of the best. It's like all he does is good.
Allan Holdsworth might be bullshit
Sebastian is a very good Drummer
old friend --dig that dude

Early Sco. Great! Many thanks. /C
Thanks John
Awesome, i attended that concert, so thnx for sharing!! ;-)
Lovely. I think this was JS’s most musically inventive and inspirational time
This is a smoking concert wauw. Great stuff ❤
I witnessed this concert. My advice: turn up the bass, the deeper octaves , Play it loud and groove along! It does justice to all the doublers and base kick used in this setup. Bad ass concert.
Amazing bass playing here, Gary is a pros PRO.
How do I turn the bass up on a Samsung A12?
Beautiful music ! and the groove is here !
Putain de concert, John Scofield est impérial et derrière ça pousse! Je m'en lasse pas.
j'y étais .Superbe journée mémorable ce jour là .
woohooo! one of my favorite concerts on youtube!
the master of the Outside style. Thx U
Love Mark Cohen
Great stuff!!
I was there
So funky
Woooh! Just awesome!
ouuuuuh!!!!!!! yesssss!!!!! excellent!!!!!
what a great band
MERCI INFINIMENT 🤟🏿🌈💞✨ John&friends. 🤩
Pure Gold ❤️❤️❤️
Excelente show! Mesmo quem não entende muito de jazz - meu caso - fica impressionado com a musicalidade desses caras.
Amazing❤
Whoa!!! 1:01:24 - 1:01:53
Good stuff.
Scofield’s best fusion years…not the same now
Can't believe rick Sebastian is jealous of me 💀 I feel soo good 😊😊

LOVE Gary! Dennis was in transistion? 1986, Love these guys together!
Also, let's appreciate the fashion people!
Indeed..
Uncle Sco with the Band Badass
Awesomeness of course, but you've heard the Protocol version on Pick hits, it's impossible to go back 🙂
Check out 'The Nag' at 57 mins.....not listed above!
♥♥♥
IMO Sco was at the top off his game in the mid to late 1980s.

i just feel like he's had a consistently amazing and outstanding career for the last 40 years :-)

@@chrisgreen1223 Noticed this as well. John is a pro and probably just wanted the other players to get their due and camera times focus.
He certainly is keeping them working.... walk.... walk..... walk..... duck..... walk.....
Good for him.

Nr 4 is Trim from the Blue Matter album
The nag, too

I reckon this is the 'Still Warm' tour.

Most probably Hakim didn't play live with Scofield.
They played that year with Sting on Bring on the Night....
I love this!
Also... This should have been in GTA Vice City.....or was it?🤔
miles . nuff said
I actually prefer this guy's pocket to Dennis Chambers- it's more behind- and I've never heard of him!!
Tracklist so far:
1 Protocol
2 Thanks again
3 Rule of thumb
4 ?
5 Georgia on my mind
6 The nag
7 10th movement
Does anyone know the name of track #4?
Trim
Who's on bass? Gary Grainger?
Fuck this shreds so hard

haha monster-smoothness...
John sounds something like Larry Carlton here.
Il a joué avec Miles Davis c'est une pointure.
I didn't know Lando Calrissian played the bass...
Hi! Who's on bass? Gary Grainger?
Yes
He is amazing! That slapping at the end of song 3! 👍
What octaver pedal is Gary using for his bass? Sounds very synthy.
Maybe Boss OC-2 ?
Boss most probably.
Sorry but Dennis Chambers another phenomenal Musician!
57:30から始まる鯔背、この曲には何と徐霊効果が有ります!メチャデカ怨霊で全身音のシャワーを浴びるとか、スマホを最大音量にして首~後頭部あたりに押し付けて、手のひらは耳に当てがい、なるべく音を逃がさない様に後頭部から耳へ音を注ぎ込む様にすると、聴き終えたあと、首周りのコリや、ストレスがほどけ、軽くなりました。僕的には生き霊系統に特に特効薬になった様に思います。(^^)d
Who is Mark Cohen? I can't find any information about him. it was as if there had never been such a pianist.
He's actually known as Marc Copland.

Ehhh. Not a fan of this line up. Well Gary and scofield. But i get the feeling sco may be skiing off of snow. Looks a bit dazed and blazed.
It was the 80s..
Keyboards were too loud. I like him in a trio. W bass & drums
Where’s Chino? ....LOL...
Chino Moreno Deftones?
Can't get into his playing. I've tried honestly.
Wonder if the cocaine was better back then
Lionel Richie in bass?!!
gary grainger......
@@pgonzo98 and I must admit he sounds phenomenal !
The DX-7 ruins everything from the 80s. It sounded so cool then, but now it's just....ergh
Everything had those sounds on it back then 😎
Ugh. Same with slapping. Anthony Jackson called it an abomination, and I used to think naaah. Now I'm like, yeah.
