...Parks' defiance led immediately to a 381-day bus boycott--drum majored by a 26-year-old Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.--and ultimately to a nine-year march culminating in the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which forced red states to comply with the Brown v.

But while his twistedly vertical guitar style may have conflicted with the source material at times, nearly everyone at the show thought it was a success. This past Thursday and Friday, John Scofield (guitar/mastermind), John Benitez (bass), Steve Hass (drums), Gary Versace (keys/Hammond) and Meyer Statham (vocals/trombone) played four shows at the Charles Hotel’s renowned Regattabar jazz club. The shows were part of a 17-date tour in support of Scofield’s latest album, entitled “That’s What I Say?...
