This CD, along with Time on My Hands together with What We Do, is an especial showcase for Scofield together with Lovano. Johnson together with Stewart lay downward to a greater extent than or less of the best musical rhythm department playing--enhanced yesteryear Sco's creative comping--recorded inwards the 90's. The tunes are beautiful together with inventive throughout, the solos are out of this the world (particularly on Go Blow together with Big Fan--I nevertheless can't figure out how they come upwardly inwards on the out-head afterward Lovano's solo), together with the ensemble telepathy is undeniable.

The yr was 1990 together with the quartet featured Joe Lovano on tenor saxophone & alto clarinet, Marc Johnson on bass, Bill Stewart on drums together with of course of didactics the peachy human being himself on guitar.
I dear anything John Scofield does. His guitar sounds much to a greater extent than muted these days; this album is from dorsum when it nevertheless used to wail a little. The uptempo tunes are vivid plenty simply it's the ballads on this album that become to me; The beautiful "Keep Me In Mind", "The Guinness Spot", "Meant To Be" together with "French Flics" are worth the cost of the CD all yesteryear themselves. But other favourites are "Chariots", "Mr. Coleman To You" (a tribute to Ornette?) together with the weird together with wonderful "Lost In Space". Scofield writes all songs, naturally.
With peachy input from all 4 members of the quartet, this album has a real similar vibe to the 2002 "scolohofo" projection which featured Scofield together with Lovano amongst Dave Kingdom of the Netherlands together with Al Foster, together with therefore if you lot liked that I mean value you'll similar this. (And if you lot similar this of course of didactics I mean value you'll similar THAT!)
Modern jazz at its best for sure.
