John Scofield, 1986, from *Still Warm*. Solo by *John Scofield*.

Scofield's bent, slightly sour phrasing over a slow groove shows why his tone is so easy to pick out.

Still Warm is a slow groove that shows why John Scofield's tone is so easy to identify. His phrasing is bent and slightly sour, full of blues inflections and unexpected note choices that pull against the harmony without losing the melody. The tone has grit but not heavy distortion, giving his bends a vocal, almost conversational quality. It captures his personal blend of jazz, blues and funk in a relaxed setting. Listen for the moments when he lands a bent note just off the expected pitch, a small tension that gives his playing its distinctive flavour.
