MEDESKI MARTIN & WOOD/UMBRIA JAZZ 2001

John Medeskey’s free-funky jazz-like Hammond organ is wonderful, and the slightly out-of-place B-class feel is the best! The content includes audience shots of her performance with John Scofield at the Umbria Jazz Festival on December 30, 2001. The camera is almost fixed, and the entire situation of the four members is clearly captured, making it a very easy-to-see video, especially for a jam band like this. John Suko is known for his funky performances, so he was a perfect match for MMW, and with the sunny stage and big-name guests, MMW, who seemed tighter and more tense than usual, was at full speed, not to be outdone. I am responding. At the end of the stage, Medeski played melodica, Martin played Brazilian percussion, and Scofield unplugged his guitar for a casual session. Mr. Wood then left the venue with four people marching through the audience seats, dragging his heavy bass. The recording time is 69 minutes.
