Title: it all works
Review: It's good to hear Scofield working with new ideas and with young musicians to fuel his virtuoso playing with solid grooves.The album holds together throughout and the cerebral slippery lines of Scofield's guitar is all held tight by Avi Bortnick's rhythm guitar/samples and the superb drum and bass work. This may be the first scofield album with rap on it, and it all works. Plus we get John Medeski on a few tracks cooking up his mad scientist soundscapes on the keys. Karl Denson sneaks in on a couple tracks as well. This one will be in heavy rotation for me. Scoop it up and enjoy.
