Taking a detour from the jam band scene, Works For Me showcases Verve guitarist John Scofield returning to his real jazz roots and making a once in a lifetime recording with his dream band.

The Works For Me quintet features master jazz musicians — Kenny Garrett, Christian McBride, Brad Mehldau, and legendary drummer Billy Higgins — contributing their unique instrumental voices and subtle musical ideas to a spontaneous session where supreme musicianship and a extra-sensory communication prevail throughout.
