A friend asked me last week by text: Who is your favorite lead guitarist? I still haven't exactly given him an answer, but I was reminded today of this awesome clip of John Scofield doing "Georgia on My Mind". For me, Sco is the master of combining a traditional jazz sound with a gritty attitude that is pure blues and funk. Listen to some of those "off" notes that pop in and out of the scalar runs. I would love to be able to play like this.
