Old man on an old guitar (Sco/Stromberg)

[Jimmy blue note]

John Scofield is the only player I know of who has spanned the lineage from Charlie Parker (through Jay McShann), to playing with Mingus, Miles, Phish, Weather Report to defining improvisational guitar today.
On a vintage Stromberg, here's some heaven.

I've always loved him on standards
Some gems from his long and evolutionary career:

With McCoy Tyner playing Joy Spring

From way back, Scofield playing one of the most soulful readings of Monk's Monk's Mood

Ida Lupino

[alltunes]

Been a fan for a long time but lately he is my favorite partially due to his last few releases on ECM.

This album from way back is great:

I was surprised, I thought the Stromberg sounded pretty bad.
