Medeski, Martin & Wood have teamed with guitarist John Scofield on Out Louder, which is a mixture of jazz, funk and blues. The first track, Little Walter Rides Again is everything you could want from the foursome – an ultra-funky groove, sweet-and-salty guitar lines that stick in your head like peanut butter, dense organ grooves, and slippery bass licks. While Miles Behind, find the quartet in full-on free jazz mode, paying tribute to Scofield’s former employer Miles Davis’ eclectic period, Julia is a solemn take on a John Lennon classic featuring hymn-like guitar lines and Medeski’s soulful keys. Out Louder ends with an improvisation-rich take on Peter Tosh’s reggae anthem Legalize It.
