A cool and captivating piece - so well performed and arranged! Impressive work yet again!

Very cool tune! Love both solos by Scott and Jamie... so interesting, tasteful, and full of surprises!

Scott Nelson is the consummate musician, creating a wide variety of styles including fusion, jazz, funk, blues, latin and more.  We've loved playing with each other and this playlist of more than forty recordings together represents some of my very favorite music on SoundCloud.  Scott plays serious guitar, bass, keyboards and creates music at such a consistently high level.

Give me one reason (Tracy Chapman)

NIGHT AND DAY, JAZZ PIANO SAXOPHONE, INSTRUMENTAL

1971 was an important time in music, where electricity was changing the landscape and Rock, Funk, Soul and Jazz were all merging into psychedelic grooves.  Marshal stacks were often taller than the players, the players were higher than the Marshal stacks, Strats and Les Pauls were the axes of choice, Hammond B3 Organs and Fender Rhodes keyboards could compete for volume with the guitars, and the hair was even longer than the jams.   Woodstock was a recent memory, Jimi Hendrix had just passed but had moved into the funk and soul inspired Band of Gypsies period, Sly & The Family Stone was heating it up with heavy funk and soul inspired grooves, and Miles Davis had just released the seminal Bitches Brew fusion double album that literally changed music.  This was where it was at, with each of these musicians and bands being influenced by each other.  Great stuff that produced legendary sessions and recordings and pushed music forward with power, energy, groove and volume.  

1971 commemorates this time and mindset, and recreates the feel with friends from around the world who continuously exhibit this spirit, energy and hair in their playing:

A couple of words on each of the players:  ALPHA ROOTS - Alphio was the perfect choice to add his soulful African djembe percussion voice.  One of the most prolific and inclusive musicians here on SoundCloud, always speaking with a positive voice.  Check out his often reggae and dub inspired recordings.  RICKARD FROM - my favorite B3 player here on SoundCloud.  We haven't recorded before but wanted his beautiful sound and also wanted these other heavy cats to be introduced to his Jimmy Smith type playing.  STEPHEN "PINNER" LIPINSKI - one of the hottest jazz fusion guitarists on SoundCloud, bringing more modern Scofieldesque jazz lines and harmonies to 1971.  SCOTT NELSON - another burning jazz and fusion guitarist, Scott sound combines elements of the contemporary guitar masters - Scofield, Metheny and Martino - to create his extraordinary playing.  MARCO OVERSTEEGEN - no one on SC has a closer overall sound to Hendrix, and we needed Marco's fabulous rhythm playing and soloing to anchor this 1971 mood.  JUSTIN VALENTE - Justin's my favorite blues rock guitarist, and just had to be a part of this summit, bringing us that heavy electric sound of Jimi, The Allman Bros, Freddie King and Stevie Ray Vaughn.  

So here's 1971.  Again.

Thanks to these great players for joining me and contributing so much to 1971, and also to all the listener, for your generous time, your comments and your shares.  And a special thanks to Jorg Calaminus for taking the initiative to master the sound for us to give you this real fine mix.

You're Gonna Look Good In Blue

Here's our take on the seminal Maiden Voyage, written and first recorded by Herbie Hancock in the early '60s, and recorded and performed again by so many jazz musicians since.  One of the all time classics in the repertoire.  Joining us on this tune are two of my very favorite jazz guitarists on SoundCloud, Stephan Lipinski and Scott Nelson, and the very fine bass player from the Netherlands, Kenneth Bruce.  Pinner takes the first solo, Scott the second and the tasty rhythm playing, and Kenneth anchors the grooving bass.  What a treat to be able to showcase Herbie's work so beautifully.

Blue Circle is a 12 bar blues with a modern, descending chromatic twist on the 9th and 10th bars.  The fabulous Scott Nelson and I have teamed up to create this original music.  Scott's guitar is haunting, going from subtle to explosive, as he expertly navigates these contemporary blues.  My approach to the tune was more introspective, in the style of the young Herbie Hancock in the '60s with Miles Davis's seminal quintet.  So great to have Scott's musicality again on this recording.  You can check out his extensive gallery of jazz and fusion: https://soundcloud.com/scott-nelson-364333064

Thanks so much for your generous time listening, for your comments and feedback, and for your shares.

Ba Ba De Bop is what SoundCloud is all about.  A pure collaboration among serious musicians.  Joining me for the first time with a real clear trumpet voice is Andrew "Styrmonix" Styrmo, doing his Miles thing here.   Andrew's also adding some hip vocals, in fact creating the name of the tune, Ba Ba De Bop.  You will hear that in the tune in fun places.  His trumpet -- beautiful tone, cool chromatic playing, and drawing tension with every other note.  Stephan "Pinner" Lipinski holds down one of two serious guitar lines, driving the tune with an infectious wah rhythm track, and also some downright nasty nasty soloing, finding that perfect space between the bass, trumpet and his wah.  And once again, we've got Scott Nelson taking a big guitar solo in the middle section, providing a huge sound and such masterful playing.   This one combines so much of what I love in fusion and also in SoundCloud.  The opportunity to express oneself with other similar minded musicians from around the world.  Pretty cool !  We hope you dig it - stick with it through the end for some funky playing:

Styrmonix:  trumpet and voice

Scott Nelson:  guitar solo

Here's a fun one we've created as a tribute to the great Joe Zawinul, keyboard player with Weather Report, Weather Update, the Zawinul Syndicate and pianist with Cannonball Adderly.  Joe wrote Mercy Mercy Mercy in the 60s, but this tune brings in his 70's - 90's influence, where he used sounds and synthesizers, world class jazz musicians, and brought his undeniable influence to the world of electric jazz fusion.  

Joining us here are 3 of my favorite SoundCloud fusion players, Scott Nelson  https://soundcloud.com/scott-nelson-364333064 with his amazing guitar playing, Mirko Borach  https://soundcloud.com/stringburner with his slap funk bass mastery and now Athens' Themis Nikoloudis https://soundcloud.com/themis-nikoloudis on electric violin, who lights it up with a fabulous sound and exploration of rhythm, patterns and modes.   So great to have him join us here, and we're looking forward to working with him more soon.    These guys all deserve applause for their beautiful playing and spirit.  And while we are at it, let's raise a toast to Joe Zawinul with Cup of Joe...

The photo here is of the Alps, as Joe Zawinul was from Austria.

LETRA:
Acorda, vem ver a lua
que dorme na noite escura
que surge tão bela e branca
derramando doçura

 clara chama silente
 ardendo meu sonhar

 As asas da noite que surgem
 e correm o espaço profundo
 oh, doce amada, desperta
 vem dar teu calor ao luar

 Quisera saber-te minha
 na hora serena e calma
 a sombra confia ao vento
 o limite da espera

 quando dentro da noite
 reclama o teu amor

 Acorda, vem olhar a lua
 que brilha na noite escura
 querida, és linda e meiga
 sentir meu amor e sonhar
