Apparently he's touring in support of his Ray Charles tribute record. There's samples at http://johnscofield.com/music.html.and an interview with a few full songs at http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4708864. I can't say it excites me, and I doubt I'll go even though I'm friends with the opening band.
