John Scofields first guitar-solo-recording ever gives a rsum of all the influences and idioms he has cultivated over his career in performances on guitar, accompanied by his own rhythmic pulse and chordal backing using a loop machine. Besides jazz, John is known to have always also had a soft spot for the rock and roll and country music he grew up with, revealed here in unencumbered renditions of Buddy Hollys Not Fade Away and Hank Williams You Win Again. Between elegant and personal readings of standards, like It Could Happen To You, the traditional Danny Boy and Keith Jarrets Coral, Scofield presents his own timeless compositions some new, others known. For the guitarist, its all about the way you get the sound out of the string and what you do with it after you attack it.
