For fans of the guitar star's punchy funk-playing, this ballad set probably veers too close to dinner-jazz smoothness. But Scofield likes giving each album a clear identity – the last one was the gospel-driven Piety Street, while its predecessor, This Meets That, was a jazz blast with a horn section thrown in – so maybe his distinctive mix of bittersweet harmonies, blues slurs and casually negotiated bop runs will find a wider public through a repertoire that listeners to Melody Gardot or Madeleine Peyroux might be more familiar with. Scofield's own themes certainly aren't eclipsed by the classics here, such as You Don't Know What Love Is or I Loves You Porgy. His softly swinging Simply Put, or the lightly jazzy ballad Already September (on which he sounds like his early model Jim Hall) sing with his own sound and knack for striking writing, as does the country-grooving-then-funky Plain Song. Scofield releases typically hooty, pitch-bending sounds to set up You Don't Know What Love Is, and I Loves You Porgy is initially almost abstract. But there's a pervasively tentative atmosphere, not just in Scofield's playing but in his wonderful band – keyboardist Larry Goldings, bassist Scott Colley and drummer Brian Blade – that slightly blunts the edge of the exercise.
