The John Scofield Band

John Scofield Plays the Music of Ray Charles featuring Scofield (guitar), John Benitez (bass), Steve Hass (drums), Gary Versace (keyboards), and Meyer Statham (vocals & trombone). The 13 tracks on That's What I Say, John Scofield's tribute to "The Genius" Ray Charles, range from lesser-known Charles gems to some of his most signature tunes. However, Scofield crafts each tune in his own distinctive style, putting his indelible stamp on every performance. Scofield, a fan of Charles’ since childhood, showcases his well-known guitar mastery as well as his strengths as an arranger and interpreter of song throughout the tribute, particularly in his inventive horn arrangements. You can groove to it on disk, but there's nothing like Scofield and his mighty guitar live and up-close-and-personal. Read more on Last.fm.
