John Scofield & Pat Metheny (6/29/94) "Everybody's Party" 

Steve Swallow is a tank. 14 mins playing 5 notes

Methany is a trumpet player at heart.

SCOFIELD'S SOLO IS A MASTERPIECE.

Steve, Pat, and Sco were at Berklee when I was there. Steve was the nicest guy you could ever meet. Pat practiced all the time. I played in a few ensemble bands with Sco. He was good, but over the course of three years he turned into a monster player. Gee, practice really does pay off.

This shit is murder for my anxiety disorder. I keep waiting for them to start the tune!!!!!

If you're here looking for Steve Swallow not missing a single beat in a 15 minutes song,well you came to the right video

SCOFIELD's SOLO is a MASTERPIECE.

I absolutely LOVE Bill Stewart. One of the most melodic drummers ever. Fantastic.

Anyone else notice how they each came in with their own time feel and then instantly matched each other on the next breath? No ego, all music!

The level of mutual respect and enjoyment from Sco and Pat towards each other is infectious and a lesson for musicians. And Bill and Steve in the background are like old friends supporting them. I have seen less cohesion from old bands like The Rolling Stones.

You can understand Metheny. You cannot see where Sco goes. Choose your aesthetic.

Two masters of the outside. This track should be on the golden cd flying to the stars

Never go toe to toe with a shoulder pad man. I trust Pat learned his lesson.

Superbé Pat and John also backline Steve and Bill, great music from another planet :)

There's no piece of music I'd rather have stuck in my head. And this one sticks like crazy glue.

WOW I LOVE SCOFEILD SOLO. WOW

Pat's talent is limitless.

John Scofield is an interesting player. I saw him at the 1986 JVC Jazz Festival in Newport RI as part of a multi lineup. Always mixing angular and dissonant lyricism with blues and funk. I'm sure he plays a lot of whole tone and diminished scales and loves to obscure the underlying harmonies with departure after departure. A great introduction to him is to check out Jaco Pastorius, Kendwood Dennard and John Scofield playing the Jaco blues, "The Chicken" on a 1985 instructional video for aspiring bassists. Jaco sounds the most adherent to melody and harmony! I've always loved Pat Metheny and saw him live in Lowell MA 1989. He's fully capable of playing angular and outside like Scofield. Song X with Ornette Coleman. I would like to listen to more Scofield and decide how much I like him. I like him and what I hear. It's an acquired taste- active listening. Listening to the Chicken with Jaco is a great place to start.

The trumpet effect on Pat's guitar is awesome!

If this is a party, Swallow is the DD playing those same notes for 14 minutes straight for everyone to riff over!

If you turned the sound down when Sco is soloing, you'd swear he was getting stung by hornets....lol....what a beast...love him.

Swallow.......human metronome in trance......great job steve, great job.....

Metheny solo is one of the greatest electric guitar solo ever! Sick!

Los mejores guitarristas dl mundo. So different so alike great!

Sco, the sickest jazz guitarist drug cartel

Incredible crazy-psychedelic solo from Pat!! at 8:25 I almost fell of the chair! :-D

John is extra extra extra ordinary!!!

John Scofield... One of the most exciting guitar explorers I'v ever heard, with Jimi Hendrix

FUSION HEAVEN!!!!!

Was this really 25 years ago??? Jeez!!!

Swallow=designated bass driver.

Questi 2 spaccano ancora e per sempre di brutto!

Masters

We're well in the nineties !! Thank you to those great great 4 jazzmen

I was lucky enough to see two shows....simply the best thing you can imagine.... The most superb rhythm section....supporting the greatest improvising guitar players ever...ever... Pat and Sco....guitar heaven...!!! Technically I could go on forever....but just enjoy.....The Best!!!

Steve Swallow is Amazing!!!

Fantastic groove. Like it it should be as live...way better than the studio version. Probably the best Metheny solo ever. And everybody shines....yeah like crazy diamonds!

Every solo is delicious.

Love Sco...even in the quiet moments you feel the menace coming when he takes the dog of the leash (e.g. 3;59 and then the low notes at 4;02 are totally sick!)

Scofield is just sick wit h it.

I watch this everyday! :))

Brilliant all around. I feel like a dunce for never having envisioned what a great match Pat and John would be!

Bill Stewart looks so clean and neatly groomed!

So cool to see a live performance of this! Great track on a great album! 🙌

Fantástic!☆

Its amasing how Pat Metheny takes his solo to another dimension .

Blown. Away.... Love it!!

La Fiesta de Todos... Bill Stewart batería, Steve Swallow bajo, Pat Metheny guitarra y John Scofield guitarra... Lo dijo eo gran Pat: "Sco es el hombre"...🎸🎸🎶🎶🎶👁️🌅

MASTERS!! BRAVO!

woww, thank you

Outstanding.

I love the tones of the distorted guitar violin sounding thing that Pat Metheny uses sometimes

When did Simon and Garfunkel record a guitar battle concert??? Looooove it. Pat and Sco.

A year ago I was here; an anniversary worth listening.

This tune is badass!

jesus! a great performance overall. bill steward got my special attention. great solo, smooth, effortless, tastefully, diversified, rich; what a thrill with that persistant ostinato. makes my day!

No competition for me here ; two pots of gold, twice the value !

An absolute “stone” groove...

Legends!!

Remeber this footage when came out in late 1994 . I ve recorded video on VHS tape and played it all along... a nd again... and again. Fantastic.

Two Giants on gtr and my favourite drummer!

Bill Stewart is like a cross between Bernard Purdie and Elvin Jones.

two guitar-master together ! incredible ! wonderful piece and solos ! but also fantastic solo on drum by Bill Stewart while Steve Swallow is able to play ostinato bass line !!!! Steve's ability in timing is really surprising while Bill is going on playing a lot of different polyrhytmic bar on his drum !!! high live performance , for sure !

wow, wow, wow! The studio version is great - yet this one is just superb!

Wow!❤

Thus my first time hearing this, amazing that's all I can say. Thank you to whoever posted this

superb gangup!

When the play the melody choruses, there is a break section where the bass line does change, lol. Yeah, this is awesome!!!

Divine!

Awesome Channel- I really enjoyed watching! Best wishes and keep up the great work, Max

Personally, my favorite two guitarist. However, the rhythm section stands out as the masterpiece.

I was There :-)

Excelent guitarist

Muitos génios juntos

That is good music

God bless Billy Stewart. Because .... Billy Stewart. Oh, and bless Steve Swallow, too, for providing a fat mattress at the bottom of a deep, deep trough for everyone he has EVER played with. Oh, and John Scofield for constantly evolving the instrument while striking new ground at the edge of the F'ing frontier. The end, amen.....

Wow..

sick !

Puh! Cool!

Steve Swallow, cool legend

Damn!!

It's excellent stuff really, isn't it.

♥

I was waiting for Steve's solo

This is the kind of indulgent stuff you play when you're famous. The drumming was great.

Synergy in a killer tune

Pat’s solo beginning is so big… One of the biggest

kick ass!

una meraviglia di 27 anni fa . sembra ieri

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Wow

I dig that cream-coloured leisure suit, Sco

i was so bummed they didn't tour the u.s. for this album

Two monsters!

Subtlefunk!!

I love pat metheny. but just now I thought myself.. damn his guitar sound is like, Rubber.

I would have sworn that was an acoustic bass Amazing tone

14 minutes orgasm of 4 amazing musicians (Swallow always seems about to come... bytheway oldsco + pat are the best guitars duet of the planet Earth)

14:00 yeah!

I can count on one hand, other guitar players that can dig so deep harmonically and rhythmically at the same time.
