This album has a special place in my heart because it was the first time I'd heard John play. It was early 1981 and I was looking at records in Third Street Jazz in Philly. The desk guy put this on and I was mesmerized, totally hooked on his unique style and musicality. Got the album right then and have bought every new Scofield release since (and the few prior ones)! He's one of a kind! Brilliant talent.
