Still Warm

Still Warm (1986) is an electric, groove-oriented album that blends contemporary jazz, jazz fusion, jazz rock, and post-bop. Scofield's guitar favors a warm, slightly overdriven tone and angular melodic lines laid over funk- and rock-inflected rhythms, with concise compositions that emphasize tight ensemble interplay and rhythmic drive rather than extended soloing. The record represents Scofield's mid-1980s move toward a funkier, ensemble-based electric jazz sound.
