John Scofield - Protocol

[@swisstripz]

Does anybody else just start laughing out at loud while listening to this? It might just be a musician thing, but these guys, especially Dennis Chambers, absolutely blow my mind, especially a little after the 4 minute mark. this is just about the highest level musicianship you'll hear

[@magn8195]

Absolutely. It is mindblowing for sure!

[@JMGilberto]

I went to see this band when Dennis had just hit the scene. I remember looking out over the audience, and laughter and stankface was all you could see.

Rip Jim😢

[@Studio-62]

[@TorstenGoods]

[@LukeDallert]

Danke, danke! Freut mich, dass du dich erinnerst. Wir sehen garantiert mal auf einem Konzert. Ich hab bei Myspace gesehen, dass du in Hannover und in Münster spielst. Auf einem der beiden Konzerte sehen wir uns bestimmt mal. Wäre echt cool!

[@TheTimananda]

a classic never knew Jim Beard was so young ("looks" so young)

[@taylorsmunich5360]

Dennis Chambers is GOD !

[@TheTimananda]

is that Jim Beard on keys?? haven't scen John since the Cobham/Duke days, but had ALL of his stuff. cat rocks cleanly and intensely love his scalar work too....

[@frankyh101]

If ANYone has the version of Protocol with Aries on Keys, Warsaw, Poland 1986. get in touch. its been taken down from youtube for some reason

[@LukeDallert]

@TheTimananda Yes that's Jim Beard!

[@TorstenGoods]

you forgot to say: JIM BEARD on Keyboards!! and put Blue matter and still warm in the tags :-)

[@catboyzee]

Can anyone tell me what type of chorus pedal Sco was using during this period? Boss? Ibanez? DoD?

[@morkus26]

I'm pretty sure at this point he used the Ibanez CS9, but he's now switched to the JAM Waterfall Chorus. I can see why, it's the best chorus pedal out there.

[@Studio-62]

He had a Roland Jazz Chorus amp on stage. Sounds like that chorus. Adrian Belew also used one for all the Crimson stuff.

[@noisefarm]

The Spaceman!

[@LukeDallert]

@outjazzer oh yeah that's right!

[@LukeDallert]

Hey, bist du das nicht Torsten? Ich bin Lucas ....vielleicht erinnerst du dich..bei Myspace sind wir miteinander befreundet! Hast recht Jim Beard fehlt. Das wird umgehend geändert :-)

[@bobbygoesbig]

pure sickness!

[@dagostinoification]

The God of healing Grace be with you Brother Denis Chambers! from + "brother Michael in Jesus +"Didier D'Agostino/French drummer-composer-teacher(on youtube-vidéos"). very great group and great compositions of John Scofield.

[@IlsaZapata]

Es jazz progresivo

[@TheMullerFan]

This is ridiculous

[@aylbdrmadison1051]

Redelicious.

[@zwartepiet412]

this is nice, but i prefer the studio version. the song isnt quite the same without sco trading licks with keyboardist don grolnick.... on the plus side, this version allows us to see dennis chambers' thrashing about like a madman

[@magn8195]

Dennis is so virtuosic in this concert!

[@graduator08]

Quite unfair on how they do not focus on the drummer!
