Re: John Scofield in GP Magazine

No one would argue that Sco isn't on the far side of the curve and as
you say the pursuit never ends for any of us. I didn't see the part
of my post where I said Sco trounced Carlton in that live

Well, several things to talk about. One thing about Carlton: I heard him

Larry Carlton/John Scofield
Zeek is right, check out Carlton on the Crusaders tune "And Then There Was

Re: John Scofield in GP Magazine

Go back and listen to some of the stuff he played with the Jazz Crusaders if you're expecting a more "mainstream" or "old school" genre. He's BTDT, and moved on to his own thing. One thing I'll
