The 11 original songs on überjam showcase a group that explores diverse influences and styles while maintaining an irresistible groove. Launching with the eastern aura of "Acidhead," easing into the languid "Tomorrow Land," and ending with the super-funky climax of "Lucky For Her," überjam takes listeners on a modern journey of forward-thinking compositions and captivating improvisations by the Scofield band.
"I had to search high and low to find the right musicians to make this record with me. It took a long time to find them, but I know that these guys are the best I’ve played with in this idiom. It’s a pleasure to go to work every day." Scofield elaborates: "I especially wanted to record with my band this time rather than make an ‘all-star’ record. The band has grown over the past three years and nothing compares with an entity that develops over time. We went into Avatar Studios and started recording immediately after a 40-concert tour and the band was really tight. With the additional inspiration of John Medeski and Karl Denson’s contributions, we were really cooking."
"Almost every interviewer asks me about my past experience with Miles Davis. Out of all the albums I’ve made - I think this is the one that Miles would have approved of and enjoyed the most. He was always looking to take Jazz to a new place." - John Scofield
Consistently the #1 choice among critics and fans for best jazz guitarist, John Scofield is the rare musician who, while already residing in the jazz pantheon, still moves (and grooves) the music forward by leaps and bounds. His latest CD, überjam, marks the debut of The John Scofield Band, a working band of the highest order that includes some of the most creative and talented instrumental voices on the scene today.
With special guests John Medeski and Karl Denson on select tracks, überjam is rooted soundly in the spirit of jazz and instrumental improvisation, while also traversing the worlds of funk, groove, and rock, and mixing jungle and other electronic beats. A true collaboration, many of the songs developed organically during the band’s last world tour. Look for The John Scofield Band on the road as they tour non-stop from the end of January through April, providing one of the best live shows you will see in 2002!
