The ten best concerts this weekend: 12/7-12/9
Categories: Best Concerts, Fuck Yeah! It's Friday!
3. MEDESKI, SCOFIELD, MARTIN & WOOD @ OGDEN THEATRE | FRI, 12/7/12
With 1998's A Go Go, guitarist John Scofield tapped into a whole new demographic by enlisting Medeski, Martin & Wood to play on the disc. While Scofield, who played with Miles Davis, was a respected jazzer and had delved into fusion, with A Go Go, he fully embraced the jazz-funk idiom. And chances are good that he didn't have folks doing the noodle dance at his shows until he teamed up with MMW. But it was a successful collaboration on both ends and they went on to record 2009's Out Louder and last year's In Case The World Changes Its Mind. (Medeski, Scofield, Martin & Wood are also slated to perform a sold-out show at the Boulder Theater on Saturday, December 8.)
