I've been enjoying  a fairly new Guitarist on the scene... Kurt Rosenwinkel ... although he's been around for a while... with paul motion & the" Electric Bebop Band"... He's got a new voice & His solo stuff is very interesting...  Guitarists should also check out his  Blog  @   www.kurtrosenwinkel.com

*

Still one of my  favorite albums... Works for Me...

John Scofield - Guitar.. Bill Stewart - Drums... Seamus Blake - Sax... Jesse Murphy- Bass

Check out our Samples / Bonus Trax for a taste of Sco's "Not You Again", 

based on the changes of  the jazz standard  "there will never be another you"

Also Noteable:  SCO's Trio CD "Enroute" and his  "Tribute to Ray Charles" CD

Also Noteable: Steve Khan's Albums ... they are all great & timeless !!!
