Miles is my main man. Always has been, always will be!
I truly believe that it should be compulsory for all musicians to listen to Miles every day. So this is my contribution to that!

A Late Night Groove to 'Blue In Green' - Miles Davis

Listening to a recording of myself trying to have a conversation with one of my idols has proven to be personally painful.  Since I was a teen I've been mentally preparing a list of questions of what I would ask John Scofield if I ever had the chance.  Here was my chance and not a single one of those questions came out.  Instead my brain went into fight or flight mode.  My heart was racing like a teenybopper sitting across from Lady Gaga.  All I can hear is how shaky my voice was, and after watching the video how extremely fidgety I can be when I'm nervous.

With that being said, what a dream come true it was for me to actually have a conversation with Scofield.  There is not much I could add to the accolades he has already received worldwide from musicians, critics, and fans.  With his instantly recognizable guitar tone, out of the box use of harmony, and sound twisting effects he has helped revolutionize electric rock and jazz guitar. The amount of groundbreaking artists he has collaborated with is nearly endless -- Miles Davis, Jaco Pastorius, Pat Metheny, Charles Mingus, Herbie Hancock, MMW, and Bill Frisell are just a few on a list full of legends.  The man has been in the top of his profession for over 30 years and after listening to his new release Uberjam Deux, he shows no sign of stepping down any time soon.

Kenny Garrett graced the Brownswood Basement and lifted the mood on a rainy Friday afternoon to discuss his love of the saxophone and his days with Sting, Miles Davis and Art Blakey to name but a few... 

Enjoy.

My version of the the iconic Miles track. I think it has most beautiful melody line ever, written by Joe Zawinul. Complete with Mile's actual horn on the coda!

Miles could play over any type of music from any era and make it sound great. Every decade brought a new sound. This was Miles' post 70's fusion style. Much slicker. Technology had moved on in the 80's and he could now exploit synths, sequencers and drum machines.
Tutu was mostly a bunch of completed but unreleased tracks written by Marcus Miller. Wisely Marcus asked Miles to play on it and took it to the next level!
This track is named in tribute to Archbishop Desmond Tutu, the first black Anglican Archbishop of Cape Town, South 
Miles received the 1987 Best Jazz Instrumental Performance, Soloist Grammy Award for his performance on Tutu. Initially Tutu was panned by the critics but, you know what Miles would say to them? "So What!"

Here's my respectful re-imagining of the Jazz standard "So What" by Miles Davis. To say it is not like the original is an understatement. It's funky. 
I did release a version with no horns on it. I did ask some Soundcloud trumpeters for a collaboration but they shied away! Can't blame them, these are big boots to fill. 
The trumpeter who not only has the hutzpah but also the talent to play Miles is Jordy Waelauruw from Jakarta / Indonesia.  You can find him at https://soundcloud.com/jordy-trumpet
So my version has two Steely Dan type guitar solos and breaks into a swing jazz section in between. See if you can spot my vocal debut!
What I like about Miles is that he reinvented himself every decade he was playing. He also reinvented jazz with the album 'Kind of Blue' from which 'So What' was the opening track.
The actor Dennis Hopper, in an interview in 2008 with Men's Journal, claims that Davis named the song after intellectual conversations with Hopper, in which Hopper would reply, "So what?"
According to Wikipedia...
"So What" is one of the best known examples of modal jazz, set in the Dorian mode and consisting of 16 bars of D Dorian, followed by eight bars of E♭ Dorian and another eight of D Dorian. This AABA structure puts it in the thirty-two-bar format of American popular song.
I didn't know that.... I just played it... but then I say the same as Miles...SO WHAT!

MILES DAVIS & THE JAZZ GIANTS

Heh this is my all time favourite jazz number Wayne Shorter's 'Infant Eyes', it's such a beautiful tune I can't describe it in words:) I first heard it on Wayne Shorter's 1965 Album 'Speak No Evil' -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speak_No_Evil ,well worth a listen, uh.. I think most of it is on utube. I start my version with a bit of solo piano, which I hate doing cos' I'm not that good - and nowhere to hide. Then it's into a quartet for the rest of it, really hope you like this one. Trombone solo is weak as it's a one take. Drums are brushes loop. Bass is a sampled one from Garritan Aria, Keys are a midi sound off Mixcraft, as is the trombone sound which I'm very pleased with. Sorry it ends a little abruptly, I'll try and fix that some stage. Cheers Mark

For this track I've gone back to my blues roots. The solo starts off very clean but soon descends into anarchy. The name of the preset I used on my guitar pedal is 'Bonamassa' that should tell you all you need to know! Seriously, the wah wah Rock Blues thing is how I used to do it. So now I have proven I still can get down mean and dirtay. All Blues is classic Miles Davis first appearing on the influential 1959 Columbia album Kind of Blue.

ABOUT ME
I play the music I like to listen to. 
As a guitarist I like to think I have my own style.
Harmony, and the groove is what I'm chasing, hopefully with a tasteful, nuanced, and distinctive presentation. 
I don't have a genre as such. I could sort of call myself a smooth Jazz 'n' Blues guitar 'thang' but in reality every track crosses over multiple strands of R&B/Jazz/Funk/Pop. Don't be put off by my use of the "J" word. Jazz to me is anything unpredictable and I'm nothing if not contemporary. 
Rhythm playing is as much a part of my "game" as lead soloing. I love the Funk!
My main instrument is guitar. I play a 1973 Ovation Breadwinner, an Ibanez nylon stringed and a Yamaha keyboard loaded with Keyscape. Unless stated I play all the other instruments too (mostly Bass), and sequence MIDI and arrange/produce. 

MY JOURNEY
I was signed with Fresh Air records and EMI in the 1980's creating Jazz/funk dance tracks but things were just as challenging then as they are now for musicians so I got a 'proper job' for 20 years! During all that time my guitar was in the loft! I rediscovered music in 2010 and Soundcloud in 2014.


MY SOUNDCLOUD
I am grateful to Soundcloud listeners who take the time to press |>Play - and especially if you give me some feedback :-)
I hope what you hear will draw you in sufficiently to explore on my own website. Nearly all my original stuff (6 albums worth) are on www.BennySutton.com and all are downloadable.
Please don't follow me in hope of getting to get an automatic follow back. I don't do that because I only follow the smallest number of people I can keep track of. I'll have a look at your page but will only follow back if you are really of interest to me. See my follow list, you'll discover some very talented artistes, many of whom I have been lucky to Collab. Soundcloud really is the place to find the real innovators these days - not the music industry approved channels, especially MTV!
If you want to get my attention, send me a PM.
