- This is a radio broadcast from either NPR, WGBH or WBGO of a John Scofield concert performed at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. The band is a group of jazz-rock all-stars from that period that I haven't seen any other videos or recordings of, and frankly, I was surprised that this set hasn't already made its way onto TH-cam. Berg and Jones were at that time, with Scofield, members of Miles Davis's band. The last tune of this set is a Scofield-authored tune that was a regular feature of Miles's concerts in the 1984-85 period, You're Under Arrest. The band is filled out by the under-appreciated (except by musicians) Don Grolnick, and Peter Erskine, who had left Weather Report in 1982 to join Steps Ahead. Be sure to check out Darryl Jones's solo at the beginning of You're Under Arrest. Note: apologies to Jones for misspelling Darryl in the banner.
John Scofield - guitar
Bob Berg - tenor saxophone
Don Grolnick - keyboards

What a line up !!!! Dream Band...Don Grolnick on Keys...yeees
I saw John with Gary Grainger & Denis Chambers playing Blue Matter but never saw this line up, sounds superb!
Wow, first time I’ve heard this since the concert. Fun!
Thank you for all the great drumming over the years. This is a great concert. I also really enjoy any of your piano trio projects. I’m a percussionist/teacher, and I always tell my students that the drums can be dynamic and expressive. Your great playing is an example 👍
So happy to share this with you. Did not expect anyone from this band to see this. Thanks so much for the great music you made in many different bands, particularly Weather Report and Bass Desires!
Hey Peter, we’re playing quite well together, huh? IMHO.Really nice to revisit this so many years later. Hope you’re doing well. All the best, Darryl
@@darryljones7100 Yes, Darryl, wow! It was such a treat and honor to play this music with you … you made me sound good. Safe travels and please say hi to Steve, you guys are crushing it. Peter
It's the 1st time I listen to "Phone Home" live. The audio is just great. Thank you so much for sharing. Cheers from Brazil.
Thank you so much for sharing this gem! The Miles band featuring Sco, Bob Berg and Darryl Jones is my favorite. This is also my favorite John Scofield period: Still Warm/Blue Matter/Loud Jazz era. This band's version of 'You're Under Arrest' is better than Miles's version on the YUA album, which edited out most of Bob Berg's playing. What a great loss Don Grolnick and Bob Berg were to jazz.
holy bejesus that is a crazy group. They all sound amazing, no wonder the Stones hired Daryl!
John Scofield was still in Miles' working band then, but already had both Don Grolnick and Darryl Jones, who with Omar Hakim, would record the seminal album 'Still Warm' roughly a year later. Thanks fro sharing this very fine preamble .
Nice to hear Bob doing Phone Home
i miss Bob
Yeah he was a real beast on his horn!
Thank you for posting this gem, the first two tracks are from the Electric Outlet album recorded in 1984 and these live versions are superb...
What a band! Thanks for sharing this.
Just listened to some of the best music ever played!
Thank you!!!
Terrific! thanks
It's exciting to be able to listen to this selection of songs from Electric Outlet with this lineup.
I was there! Good times!
omg. ❤ thank you
Thanks for posting
Obviously Old Man Scho isn't as good as Joni Mitchell otherwise he'd be in the Rolling Stones top 250 guitarist list 🤔😯🤣😡🙄🙄😡🙃😯🫤.. my God almighty 🙄🙄🙄
I agree the Rolling Stone list is a joke, but Joni is not the example I would have chosen. She was pretty innovative harmonically and in experimenting with open tunings, so there is a case to be made she deserves her spot.. I mean, Johnny Ramone ahead of Frank Zappa?????.
@@StephenBuckingham I believe she was top 10... come on seriously?... perhaps there's a chance she's number 200ish...but nowhere near the top half of any proper list
@@Andrew-q8k Let's just agree the whole list is a joke. I wouldn't put her in my top 50, but I wouldn't put Johnny Ramone in my top 1000 (he's at 44).
@@StephenBuckingham so so many should be outside the top 1000 and yet they are highly placed on that list. At least we both know the truth 😁👌👍
