More Details

Summary:

John Scofield updates his early '90s quartet with drummer Bill Stewart, saxophonist Joe Lovano, and bassist Larry Grenadier. For an artist equally adept at jazz fusion, funk, blues, soul, and rock, getting to the root of jazz means channeling the blues. Scofield describes Past Present as 'futuristic blues': he and Lovano craft unison melodies before separating then intertwining invigorating improvs.
