Scott Henderson Discussion

Hey Scott,

In the past couple of years, we have lost a lot of the great musicians of our time. Allan Holdsworth, Larry Coryell, Paco De Lucia, to name a few. John Abercrombie is unfortunately, also ...

I'm not a music critic, especially when it comes to music I know nothing about. I listened to the clip and I didn't hear anything that sucked, so yeah, people can be mean just because they like being ...

Hey Scott,

I was playing death metal and was trying not to be a knucklehead, incorporating small things i learned from people like you.
I stopped playing many years ago, because you need to go int ...

We just did one with special guest Alan Hertz - should be out very soon. It was great to talk to Alan - great musician and engineer, and those guys are very rare. He had lots of knowledge to share so ...

I agree that some people are just stupid and make easy targets for cults, but it's also true that many intelligent people suffer from low self-esteem. Artists and people in the entertainment industry ...

Scott, i know you like and respect simple music as well.
Have you ever heard of Opeth?
I particularly love one of their songs which uses some functional harmony in non functional ways.

Mr. Green

I just don't understand how batshit crazy someone needs to be to b ...

As far as composition alone, that's probably our best record. I actually like all my tunes, which I can't say about the other records. I like all the Willis tunes too, except for Necessary Blond - nei ...

That album holds a special pl ...
