I felt scofields part was where it went another place and I actually was dancing around the kitchen, cooking dinner. Marvellous.

[@amjrpain919]

In memory of Richard "Dicky" Betts...🙏💔

[@thomasfourounjian3805]

One drummer doing the work of two. Hats off.

[@longroadproductions9242]

Now that's talent, I used to do the drums for this for my own band lemme tell you it wasn't easy

[@1perfectpitch]

Love a drummer who knows how to hold the sticks. You can't do those left one handed rolls holding the stick like a hammer.

[@genewilliams617]

AND he is using traditional grip as well!!!!

[@genewilliams617]

@@longroadproductions9242 fortunately for me, the only band that I was in that was brave enough to pull off the song, was when I was playing double bass. I had a unique style, in that I incorporated percussion style drum kit patterns that proved to be very effective. This drummer is a monster for sure.

[@danadams8373]

Like how he had a quote from Bonham's "Bonzo's Last Stand" in his solo section.

[@FrazerJones71]

Great to see Sco getting down and dirty(ish) on an Allman's tune but Marcus nails it for me, what a talent!

[@adriennelee1520]

Absolutely. total out shone the others

[@adriennelee1520]

Marcus King.... shines in any group.

[@wolframhohmann1300]

One of my personal "discoveries" in the past two years. Man, how could I not realize him earlier.

[@timemerson2691]

I would have loved to see this live. Super talented group. Oh and John freaking Scofield. Are you kidding me.

[@bryanblack526]

Why would I kid when I've seen the man who wrote it perform it, this is trash.

[@mikemcdorman85]

Marcus representing the South on this one in a way that would make the Brothers proud

[@SuperMcabral]

Would make Duane and Dicky, Derek Trucks very proud!

[@nicolasvaucenat7978]

Scofield speaking with his guitar, telling a story.amazing

[@seanbear69]

Scofield found that knob and turned it up to 11. Huge props for structuring his solo around blues licks and grooves when he could have just shredded modal jazz scales all night long.

[@danshramo2648]

He doesn't do that though. He's way more creative.

[@yvonnelaurenty6427]

Were you listening Dickie? Peace and love to you, especially for this awesome, time-honored composition.

[@InTonalHarmony]

Scofield gave me the most chills.

[@stuartstuart321]

Very dissappointing

[@timflatus]

John Scofield: this music has a fantastic lineage. Marcus King: This music has an incredible future.

[@yvonnelaurenty6427]

Tim Hawthorne: thanks for reminding of this tunes great lineage. Who'd a thunk that the self-described southern country boy (DB) would write something way back in the Duane days of the ABB that is a timeless treasure for guitarists of all ages?

[@Wetstache]

Yes.

[@stephenrice8986]

I'LL SECOND THAT EMOTION MR. SCOFIELD - YOU ARE FAR FROM SUCKING TOO!!!

[@stephenrice8986]

Oh, that was Tim, NOT John - well I'll stick with the comment anyway - Duane (and now Brother Gregg) was/were smiling down on The Brooklyn Bowl the night of June 15th, in the year of our Crazy Guitar Solo Lord 2017!

[@stephenrice8986]

Can I get an Amen for Alan Evans, Neal Evans, Eric Krasno , otherwise known as the mighty SOULIVE!

[@SC_musicfan]

Wow! Starting at the 3:00 minute mark will change your life. Duane and Dickey would be proud.

[@AndrewOlsenMusic]

That chord rundown by John Scofield starting at 7:20 blows my mind hahahah

I always don't understand who would thumbs down on jams like this.

Marcus has to be one of the best young guitarist to come up in a while

[@GoodMusicGoodMood]

He and Julian Lage are the future

[@saxonsteve]

Without Question! He’s only 24!!!!

[@Jay91Byrd]

Highly recommend seeing the Marcus King Band live. The whole band is full of an insane amount of talent at every instrument they play

[@taylorpelletier89]

Daniel Donato. Has a good 50 minute set from Denver on YT. Bunch of young dudes doing their own take of 60’s psyche country. Look him up. Out of Nashville. Kid plays cosmic country and can play some of the cleanest fast licks. He’s like Clarence White with some Garcia, Dickie and Duane thrown in there. Personally I find Marcus King and Gary Clark overrated, but it’s mainly because I’ve gotten tired of electric blues the past couple years. Delta blues rules all blues anyways… lol

[@Fire_Marshall_Bill]

I sat front row at a small theater maybe 5 years ago or so and watched him play from about 5 feet away. His view the whole show was my slack jawed dumbass. Went home and stayed up all night trying riffs I watched him play. Kids a fucking prodigy. For $30 it was the best bang for my buck since Gary Clark Jr. played 6th street. I just so happened while on vacation to walk in to a bar he was playing. The two luckiest shows I’ll ever catch. Everything’s right in this world so long these boys carry the torch lol.

[@MichelHubert-lg9so]

Grand moment de blues, merci 🌠

[@liamnaughton9505]

What a guitarist Marcus, phenomenal, breathtaking.

[@jamespettersson9655]

true dat

[@stuartstuart321]

Couldnt tune Duane's les paul.

[@liamnaughton9505]

@@stuartstuart321 You’re joking mate, you’re letting sentiment and nostalgia get in the way. Marcus has a far superior feel and technique to Duane. The asset test is, I could play everything that Duane could do but wouldn’t even know where to start with Marcus, his brain is like a computer and his jazz education sends him to a different world altogether from the everyday blues player.

[@TheHonudiver]

Marcus is wonderful but he is young. When he learns to put a little more space and nuance to balance his virtuosity he will truly be on another level.

[@greggcashmore805]

​@@liamnaughton9505totally agree...absolutely love the guitarist's from the 70s etc...Duanne, Clapton, Hendrix etc...BUT ...in all honesty some of the guitarists in the last ten years... Marcus, Trucks, Bonamassa....there on another level really...all influenced by the greats...but have taken it further

[@nhwnhw02]

That is one hard working drummer! Awesome performance by everyone on stage.

[@greggcashmore805]

I must have watched Marcus Kings solo at 3:00 bout 100 times...just insanely talented

[@davidgrout1056]

Three amazing guitar solos! I’m glad Scofield went last because no matter what came before in a song, he’s always going to take it somewhere else. After the super smooth phrasing and atonal ideas in the first two solos, he starts with his signature long, snaky phrases, enters Jeff Beck territory, and then has some fun with vowel sounds on the wah. Always funky and unpredictable, Scofield is a master who keeps getting better.

[@GoodMusicGoodMood]

God bless to anyone who had to follow that Marcus King solo 🙌 Even Sco couldn’t keep up

[@yetifiasco1072]

This is my pantheon of gods. May their sounds reverberate over the mountains.

[@intimidator.jb3470]

Awesome rendition, everytime i see a Scofield video i regret missing him @discoverjazz yrs ago. I've seen Marcus 2x, he's the future!!

[@marcwoolf465]

Neil Evans is playing keyboard bass lines FYI. You’re watching and listening to some of the finest musicians anywhere! It’s not a competition, but style appreciation and personal preferences. From someone who’s seen the ABB 50+ times, this is a great version of Lizzie Reed!

[@boissonnadesebastien8962]

John i love You ❤

[@bunnys1980]

can't beat Sco, on guitar face. Perfect Jam!

[@sullyb23511]

People always gush over the various guest guitarists in these Soulive videos, and with good reason. They're all incredible. How about some love for Eric, though?! He's a monster!

[@johnhrock1009]

I remember seeing Soulive in Orlando at the social years ago, those guys tore up the place. Three generations of great guitarist right here, this how you play melodic with other guitarist, in sync and in harmony and each guy knows how to step out and rip it up and when to pull back.

[@charlesschrader2988]

John is the man.

[@kutsbothways]

Every time I get into the solo good the comping in the background just blows me away. Gel is thick.

[@richardbusson5903]

I was ready for some really out and bizarre stuff when it came Scofield. He surprised me with a hell of a funky and soulful ride! Loved it!!

[@yvonnelaurenty6427]

Richard Busson: agree, big time. Scofield is first and foremost a max guitarist going all the way back to Miles. The incredible drummer is a freakin metronome that keeps all these guys absolutely on point. They are all able to do what they do best. And Liz Reed swings like nobody's business. Dickie said he wrote this tune so that fine musicians could stretch out, and that's what they do here. Btw, I like Marcus ok. I'm probably going to make waves here claiming Billy Strings is truly where it's at when praising the young'uns who are keeping the spark alive - and he's from Michigan out of bluegrass. Have a listen to Billy and Marcus on a Summertime duet. Billy has the chops and the voice. Just sayin . . .

Did anyone else notice Scofield SIGHT READING that whole intro? Unreal

[@Exileonbackroad]

That's not difficult reading...

[@jbdmb]

@@Exileonbackroad right? How can you even tell he is sight reading it? Doesn't sight reading imply it's the first time you are playing off the sheet music. Maybe it's his third time seeing the sheet music. I swear reading the commenters sound like people that played an instrument from 4th through 6th grade... and never picked up an instrument again.

[@kfallstidi]

Barry...you have such nice videos....ty so much

[@danshramo2648]

Did anyone else notice that the two guitar players probably played 8 or 10 rests between them and Sco played 2 or three in the first 20 seconds?

[@generalfuzz]

holy cow. Thank you!

[@mbass718]

Thanks alot for posting this. This was one freakin incredible night at Brooklyn bowl!! I was at this one and then the night or two after with George Porter and Marcus King again.

Scofield: "Hold my beer"

[@seongomez4903]

Ya feel me? Scofield has so many incredible rhytmic and melodic ideas. Its CRAZY

[@jonRboy]

@@seongomez4903 Well, part of it's him, but a large part of it is the fact that he's a jazz guy and has a lot of 'stuff' to draw from. Stuff that is out of reach from players in the rock and blues box. Scofield can do all that stuff (the blues and rock stuff) + he can do the jazz stuff. More choices for him to draw from. With that said, I'm not saying jazz is great and the other stuff sucks...jazz just is more complex harmonically. I loved King's solo and in general blues rock playing.

Individual styles and musicianship aside, these cats can all play and there really is no reason to compare.

MAJESTIC musical moment when Alan Evans confuses the finale but still succeeds to manage the shit out of it and make it sound friggin' magical as if it was written like this! ( also throwing a smile at Eric like " Yeah I know it almost happened, but we delivered!" ). Made my day :D

[@allenkennedy6748]

There is something strange about comments about guitarists. Commenters want to display knowledge about music or skill level or “competition”. I think the contest is over. All these guys won. It is really cool that Marcus wants to play with John and vice versa. I think musicians are like parrots: people always want see parrots “do their tricks”. The bird sits there very intently watching, wanting to learn something interesting and new. Musicians are up there speaking their special language. They are intensely intent on everything. We’re lucky to see spontaneous combustion like this. Thank you. And fire the “lighting director”. Did he not show for the sound check and block the lighting. He definitely isn’t at a talent level commensurate with the on stage talent.
