His distinctive, slightly strained sound singles him out, and his versatile playing combines influences from post-bop, funk and R&B: American guitarist John Scofield is one of the icons of jazz. For decades, the US-American has performed worldwide in a great variety of formations - but almost never alone. Scofield has now recorded a solo programme exclusively for his Elbphilharmonie Session.
»I have played with bands my whole life. That was the reason I started to play the guitar. Solo guitar is really hard, you have to go through all kinds of leaps and bounds and technical stuff. But then they invented a sampler pedal, with which I can make little accompaniments on the fly. That has allowed me to do a whole concert - being able to play with myself.«

Waited my whole life to hear Scofield play on the neck pickup. Still sounds the same as his bridge pickup.
The first thing i look was his pickup selector and thinking is the neck but sound like twangy bridge.
He plays right hand near the bridge, you get that sound on every pickup you select.
LMFAO. Patrick Low for the win ;)
Neck-, belly- or footpickup... the secret why this man sounds like he does (and like nobody else) is hidden inside of him anyway ;-)
@@rasjavita It seems that he is using the Ibanez Trisound Switch that's on some of the Ibanez AS Models. Check it out.
Dude keeps getting better and better.
What a beautiful location.
Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg it's a project of architects Jacques Herzog, Pierre de Meuron
Each time I hear his solos I have a feeling there is this good old friend telling me a story. Unpretentious, raw and deeply humain. For me, he's the best music storyteller. Brilliant, inspiring musician. Thank you, Mr.Scofield.
Yep, same for me - since the 80s with Miles...
So nice ... Only Master's can aford that
Well said ... That's exactly how it is 👌👍🎶🎸🎶
短いルーターリフ 17:30秒〜
Interesting. When I hear his solos it sounds like Charles bukowski drunk walking down the street.
Just when you thought "Wichita Lineman" couldn't be any more amazing . . .
ben monder too!
When something brings you joy and relieves you from worries and sorrow, in Sweden there is a saying; it is a "conditioner for the soul" ("balsam för själen"). Scofield's playing is just that.
Balsem voor de ziel (Dutch)
goes well with the orange Ikea lamp as well :)
Exactly
We also have it in Russia - «бальзам на душу»
Wow! My 1st time hearing John Scofield; fabulous, awesome, amazing!👏👏👏
Love how he can take a totally freaky microtonal drunken pitch wobble effect pedal and make it sound perfectly natural in a super mellow beautiful jazz context. His decades of musical wisdom show in every move he makes, and keep surprise in the mix.
Totally Freaky Microtonal Drunken Pitch Wobble would be a great name for a pedal though.
"totally freaky microtonal drunken pitch wobble effect pedal" would be a great name for a band 🤣
I am but a lowly amateur player, but watching this somehow makes me think that I can plug in, fire up my looper pedal, and make something that gives me joy. It is all about having fun, after all.
you can. Meditate with that looper.
One of the greatest musical storytellers of our time!
He is occupying that rare air that Miles once breathed - Magical
I must have seen Sco 3 or 4 times growing up. In an era where guitarists are playing pyrotechnics, polyrhythms and heavy conceptual ideas, John is playing the most laid back, blues-based personal language and it still sounds so fresh and relevant.
Totally agree !!!! At that time I used to listen to Pat Metheny, Mike Stern and Scofield. From Pat we had the melodic jazz phrasing and amazing musical structure. ( let’s not forget the standard albums which are incredible ), Mike Stern had this rock feeling that all of us needed in a jazz guitar player. Also I believe he did one of the great compositions in terms of ballads ( like “before you go” which has amazing chord progressions on it) and Scofield that was a plug and play guitar player with awesome weird grooves and a totally different approach on his melodic lines. It was hard to “copy” him. He is unique!!! A go go is my favorite album :-)))
And absolutely nobody can touch him. His playing is simply put perfect. flawless. A giant guitar genius ❤❤❤
John is not only a huge inspiration for us who try to be musicians. He is also such a kind person with no ego at all. The human behind the instrument is a big part of the influence.
absolutely...
This is it. I can't imagine my own development in music and music at all, without this gentleman. I am thinking about last 40 years.
That is so true of John. No ego at all. Just a regular guy. Sharing his soul and music with us
I agree for all
I agree because to play is to be what we are, our story, our maturity our being..
His signature has always been so big and strong, one note you know who it is.
This nice feeling when you discover something and don't understand how could you live without it. John is beyond awesome. This jam is a pure gold.
sure is
Still warm! I love his rendition of Indiana. Good job with the ditto too.
My favourite guitarist since 40 years.
haha I tried listening to this and working at the same time...I got nothing done. thank you Mr. Scofield for sharing your brilliance and gift
A lot of people play guitar, a few do music. God bless John Scofield
Love John, but if you play guitar you do music, right?
define music, and name a few that don't do it.
@@morbidmanmusic post modern blah blah
If you have to ask…
The tone, the phrasing, the magic.
John Scofield's kind of playing is so unique. You'll recognize his sound/style of playing instantly if you're open to it. Still love his sound within so many musical genres for so many years. Lots of respect John 🙏
Master playing whatever he wants. Can’t get any better than that
Very happy to hear John Scofield's music. Very creative. I have always studied John Scofield with my guitar.
Jesus Christ, this melted every idea of music I've ever had, away!
So glad to have seen Scofield do his thing live. What a guitar hero.
Oh yes, We can see you in the huge audience
@@Sadowsky46 not at this performance silly 😝
Was just thinking the same thing. I caught him in some intimate venues in the 90s with MMW and some other jam band adjacent acts. I didn't actually know what a treat some of these artists were, as I was so young. Charlie Hunter comes to mind from that scene as well
Incredible sense of intimacy in John's performance...a privilege to watch. A man in complete command of his instrument simply doing what he does best - like being present at a 1-1 masterclass.
I never really noticed before but John doesn’t vibrato at the top of his bends. He just lets them stick out like a sore thumb. Fing genius. When that intense chorus comes in it’s like his dirty little rascal character
What could I say ? As humble as great musician ? Love this guy. (Plus great filming, thanks)
What he did with Wichita Lineman was just wow. You rock ❤
This is so beautiful. When he started playing something changed in my whole body and I think the Beauty of this marvelous music broke into my mind. Thank you, Master.
Beautiful words. I feel exactly the same.
John Scofield is a calming influence in my World...thx Sco
Sco ist eine Legende.... er spielt vier Takte und schon bin ich verzaubert...
Saw him with his quartet first row standing before me in an intimate club. Remember it very vividly, what a musician.
Loved the last line where he says hes just trying to 'stay in shape' LOL. I guess I need to work out more. Amazing solo BTW
心にスッと染み込んでいく。心地いい。
A go go is one of my favorite tracks. Scofield is one of my favs
Love his playing and compositions...
I've seen Scofield live a few times and met him too. My favourite living guitarist and it's been that way since I heard him with Miles in the eighties.
long live the sco :) Luv U.
men... the end of the mrs. scofield is too much to handle, seriously, propper musicianship, scofield knows exactly what to express in music pure genius.
The best!!! 💕💕💕💕💕
Marvelous!
this is pure gold
How beautiful and what exquisite use of pedals.
It's all there: elastic, loosey-goosey-yet-in-the-pocket time feel; greasy, bluesy inflections; huge personal vocabulary grounded in a variety of styles of music and decades of study/performance...
Love this guy, been listening to him since the 70's(Enja records, etc.) He's the real deal. Thanks for the music, Sco. Stay healthy and keep creating that sonic magic!
ETA Love the way he uses the looper and other effects pedals in this performance.
Totally agree with you. I've seen him live once in Athens (Greece). One of the very few musicians that changed my perspective and approach on the guitar. By the way...any ideas on what unit he's using occasionally for that modulated effect?
@@dramanovel Regarding the modulating effect: I am not sure. I haven't watched the interview that accompanies this performance; maybe he talks about it there. Or, perhaps there is a recent(2022) Scofield "rig rundown" on TH-cam that shows his current pedal set-up for his solo performances...
@@markfretless Thank you for your response. I saw the rig rundown video. I suppose he is using his whammy
thanks for the music Sco, u know him personaly or wht ?
@@dramanoveli think it's a chorus pedal
The first time I saw you was in 1981 (I think) in Amsterdam, I went to see another guitar player. You, Steven Swallow and Adam Nussbaum, I was flabbergasted. And since then, you have been the one to listen to. This was again a thing of beauty. Thanks, Sco love you
Incredible - a true great
Maestro Sco!
An absolute giant with genius phrasing, timing, tone, taste and feel. A great showcase how intelligent and subtle electric guitar can be. One of a kind - Master!
That's my favorite way to make music and play guitar.
Sco is just a treasure! He is so inspiring. I'm so happy we have been blessed to have had him, and to still have him.
John Scofield is a brilliant composer and guitarist! ❤ I like his unusual note melodies and loops. He trips me out! I like when he plays his Tele!
He always makes me want to play after listening to him………what an inspiration…….❤️☮️🙋🏻♂️……. Lefuj
I feel the same, man!
On the contrary, after listening to him I always feel that I should sell my guitar....
@@attilaroszler4814 what kind of guitar how much I’ll buy it for cheap 🤗…..no I’m kidding use the music for inspiration have fun ☮️❤️…….. Lefuj
That's the captain's role 😆
Definitivamente!

I love Scofield. His playing has inspired me beyond what anyone can understand. Sco is Amazing. He is one of the few I would declare to be the GOAT at guitar.
Beautiful concert, thank you Sco and thank's for sharing it Elbphilharmonie Hamburg!
Absolutely a special groove inside Mr Sco 💥
Wow. So harmonically cool.
That ‘golden’ sound gets to me every time 😊

Love this!
Thank you all for a most inspiring offering!
I have no words to describe how John's playing makes me feel. His phrasing and style, his unique and exquisite voice is the stuff dreams are made of for many music lovers, connoisseurs or simple aficionados. The humility of a true giant. Kudos for whoever responsable of this little gem of a concert. The place, the production, the sound, being a huge hall, the sensation of intimacy is overwhelming, you feel like John is playing just for you in your living room....Just fantastic. thanks a million for doing this.
WONDERFUL!
Vu a Fribourg/Suisse ,il y a 4 jours le dimanche 14 mai 2023. Genial ,une personalité marquante avec un style personnel divers. Magnifique
Amazing work of art of music, videography and storytelling! Thanks John and the Elbphilharmonie team.
I just saw him at the capital theater in NY! I was surprised as I didn't knoiw he was the opening act for John Mcglaughlin & Zakir! Astonishing and even tempered player !!!
He knows what music is about
