Format:Audio CD
I have every solo album Sco has released except "Bar Talk" which has been deleted for many years. Sco seems to be playing the kind of music he started out playing and enjoying it. He has an eclectic taste and has used these influences in all his explorations over the years.
I have found his output a bit disappointing over the last few releases, with "the music of ray charles" "this meets that" and now "Piety Street"
This album like the previous 3 mentioned has consummate musicianship, good arrangements, great feel and musicality but it seems to lack the more adventurous or inquisitive spark which abounds in spades on his older albums and jazz albums. maybe because they are less jazz oriented than previously.
Sco seems to have moved into the more lucrative climes of commercialism? Sco appears to have been heading towards this gospel album for a while especially after the Ray Charles cd. This collection of vocal gospel songs (which are amongst his favourite tunes) has only one instrumental track near the end (which comes as a breathe of fresh air) Sco tells us that he doesn't belong to any particular denomination and that he just loves the tunes. The tunes have a great feel to them.
Maybe its my problem i feel uncomfortable with this album, being an atheist, the lyrics make me cringe while at the same time i can appreciate the music. Sco arranges the songs himself and plays some sensitive solos. There are some moments of bluesy jazz improv which are only limited by the stricter arrangement/architecture of the songs. His band also offer sensitive musical performances so this should really be a winner.
This is no "Uberjan" "up all night" "Blue matter" or "What We Do" if you love Sco's music (like i do)you'll probably buy it anyway. If you are in any way religious and also love Sco's music you should love it. As sco says the music should do the talking so maybe the problem is with me. If you do buy it, it may be the album of Sco's that tends to get left on the shelf in preference to his others. Sorry John.

This is absoluitely brilliant - Scofield is a guitarist's guitarist usually, but on this record there's plenty of awesome vocals and pious bass playing, and the band rock in the way only great gospel musicians can - hence Scofield is able to play against some solid foundations and boy does he do well - what is great is that he skirts around all the possible pitfalls of blues cliches and plays some fantastic tunes....and with such feeling - it really is one of favourite recordings of his, and one of the best CDs I've got in a few years - there's some very good youtube segments of this lineup playing, so if you don't believe me, go check them out, then buy this!

John Scofield has during his time as performing jazzguitarist played a lot of styles, and I've enjoyed his music in 3 decades. "Piety Street" is probertly the best gospel/blues/New Orleans-mix i've ever heard. And what a group of musicians, it grooves......
