████ It's hard to believe it took guitarist John Scofield more than 30 ████
████ albums, hundreds of credits, and 50 years to release a solo ████
████ guitar album. His sound is almost instantly recognizable whether ████
████ he's playing jazz, fusion, country, rock, or blues. The many ████
████ records he's issued under his own name or with others (including ████
████ Miles Davis, Gary Burton, Pat Metheny, and Medeski Martin and ████
████ Wood, among others) has only entrenched Scofield's signature ████
████ style and sound in the jazz canon. Here he plays unaccompanied ████
████ with a looper. He offers heartfelt, skillful readings of jazz and ████
████ pop standards, folk, R&B, country, and rock songs, plus a handful ████
████ of originals. His looping technique involves comping -- sometimes ████
████ for the entire duration of a tune -- as he solos over the top. ████
████ ████
████ The set opens with a compelling interpretation of Keith Jarrett's ████
████ "Coral." Scofield actually recorded it once before with a trio ████
████ for the various-artists tribute set As Long as You're Living ████
████ Yours: The Music of Keith Jarrett. This solo take reveals the ████
████ reason for its enduring appeal. In just eight measures, Scofield ████
████ reveals the pianist's canny ability to combine traditional and ████
████ non-traditional harmonics simultaneously while underscoring them ████
████ with intimate lyricism. A six-minute version of Jimmy Van Heusen ████
████ and Johnny Burke's "It Could Happen to You" is rendered with ████
████ abundant swing, glorious arpeggios, and bent notes. Not even peer ████
████ Bill Frisell's version of "Danny Boy" is rendered with as much ████
████ subtlety and introspection; Scofield moves through the Celtic ████
████ melody and binds it to North American country music. While the ████
████ original "Elder Dance" offers the guitarist's bluesy bebop chops, ████
████ his "Mrs. Scofield's Waltz" cuts across jazz guitar history from ████
████ Charlie Christian to Tiny Grimes to Wes Montgomery in its ████
████ glorious demonstration of chordal harmony. He interprets the ████
████ traditional blues "Junco Partner" through its 1951 original ████
████ single version by James Waynes while imbuing it with a hint of ████
████ New Orleans flavor via slippery chords and lithe single lines. ████
████ Harry Warren's "There Will Never Be Another You," is offered as ████
████ fleet bebop while "My Old Flame" is a sultry, simmering ballad ████
████ that momentarily recalls Tal Farlow. Buddy Holly's bumping "Not ████
████ Fade Way" uses loop technology to stack chord progressions as ████
████ Scofield unwinds the melody with single-string runs. Its strong ████
████ rhythmic pulse underscores the tune's debt to Bo Diddley's R&B in ████
████ the process. The guitarist reveals two sides of his compositional ████
████ style with the tender ballad "Since You Asked," and the angular ████
████ avant groove of "Trance Du Jour." Scofield closes with a forlorn ████
████ reading of Hank Williams' "You Win Again." Fueled by almost ████
████ constant string bending and almost lush chord voicings, his ████
████ inherent lyricism reflects the songwriter's poignant resignation. ████
████ Scofield has distilled five decades of experience into these 13 ████
████ songs. While the endeavor might initially appear slight, one ████
████ listen will disavow that notion as he reveals an abundance of ████
████ musical wisdom and sophistication in his approach to recording ████
████ solo. ████
