One of the loudest scofield concerts I have heard (a good thing). This music demands power and intensity. He played a tele, but the sound was still the familiar scofield sound. Lots of electronics as well which added some dimension to the core sound. If you have a chance to see them, don’t miss it!

Tom Rudd Sep 06 2013 at 12:34 PM	I have watched a few videos of this new Uber Jam Band and I have seen Sco play live maybe 10 or 12 times over the years and this is the first time I have ever seen him play a guitar other than his signature Ibanez. Videos I have seen of these recent shows he is playing a Tele. You go John!~

franksexton Sep 05 2013 at 9:11 AM	Thanks for replying, Tom. I went expecting more of the techno influence that was on the first two albums, I didn’t know there was a new album. Uri Bortnick did some samples but mostly played rhythm guitsr. Scofield played a very bluesy acid influnced electric guiar and the drummer was awesome. FYI, John Kelman has a review of the latest album "Uberjam Deux" posted on All About Jazz. http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/article.php?id=44764
