This is a video of my podcast with Tribal Tech founder and guitarist Scott Henderson.
His impressive work over the years as co-leader of the group TRIBAL TECH, leader of his own ground breaking trio, and sideman to some of the best jazz artists of their generation, including the great Joe Zawinul, has elevated him to the front ranks of both Jazz and Blues.
Besides being a world class player and premier composer, Scott's trademark is his beautiful tone and striking ability to blend Blues, Rock, Funk, and Jazz, creating a soulful and unique voice on the guitar.

I've seen Scott Henderson live on three occasions, once with Tribal Tech, once with Jeff Berlin and Dennis Chambers and with his own trio, they were some of the best shows i have ever seen. His guitar playing is just out of this world, he really channels in the spirits of Allan Holdsworth and Jeff Beck but still sounding like himself. In my opinion, he is one of the greatest guitarists on the planet and it was a great honor to meet and have a picture with him, he's really down to earth with an amazing sense of humour. Fantastic interview.

The first time I say Tribal Tech live and he started soloing. The best musical experience of my life. I've never been as close to ecstasy as that day.

Scott Henderson has been one of my main music (and guitar) heroes for more than 30 years. Thank you Rick for the incredible and very deep interview you did. Many things that Scott said let me thinking and meditating deep things about my own music processes. Thank you again and greetings from Venezuela.

Great interview Rick! Scott was a teacher/counselor when I attended GIT in '84-'85. He was awesome then, and has only gotten more incredible as the years have gone by. One of my biggest highlights of that year was getting to sit and watch Scott play Real Book tunes for hours with the likes of Frank Gambale, et. al. It was an amazing time in my life for sure!!

I have seen Scott almost every time he comes to St. Paul, he's a truly unique musician: after the shows he sits down to talk with us local guitarists - imagine that, a legendary musician that really LIKES being with his audience! awesome person!

Excellent interview, thanks so much! One of the many things I love about Scott Henderson is that he's so incredibly Real and down-to-earth. I believe that this quality really comes across in his playing, which to my ear always sounds so truthful. I also happen to think he writes great tunes. His playing and his tunes are so much about expression, which is something I believe to largely be missing from the music scene nowadays. (Music might be a big forest, but most of its trees are sick.) And btw, great questions!

I've been a fan since hearing Scott with Chick Corea's Elektric Band in '86. I saw a performance they did at a festival, I think Montreux. I was totally blown away. Scott's a total pro, one of the most distinctive stylist out there, and he's only gotten better. I can't say that for most players, even most great players. I find it amazing that just two years after attending GIT he got the gig with Corea.

I had the opportunity to watch Scott Henderson's trio with Jeff Berlin and Dennis Chambers some 6 years ago (of which I took a video and DID NOT upload to KZfaq, nor ever will :D). The venue was kind of like a music hall, so it wasn't intimate, but it wasn't huge either. The warmth from these gentlemen, especially Mr. Berlin and Mr. Henderson was palpable. I certainly hope they return to my neck of the woods.

I absolutely love this series, and I would love to hear you talk with some more jazz guitarists, I think Julian Lage would be amazing, he's so increadibly talented and accomplished so much at such a young age. I also think that someone like Chris Thile, the mandolin player (Check him out if you don't know who he is, he's done stuff with Brad Mehldau, Edgar Meyer, Yo-Yo Ma to name a few) as I consider him one of the worlds greatest musicians, seeing an interview with him would be incredible! Of course there are others I'd love to see on here, but I understand you can't get everyone, people like Brad Mehldau, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Lage Lund, Marius Neset and Jasper Hoiby are others I think would be absolutely fantastic on your show. Thank you for your great contribution to this community :)

I was in the last ever Miami Plaboy Club around 1984-5. Dont ask. I remember seing this incredible covers band, with a tall guitar player with an afro. He was playing an Ovation electric guitar and he was extremely versatile and amazing. I didnt know Scott at the time, but years later that memory came back to me, and I could swear it was him at the Playboy club. Anybody can shed some light? Else I will always wonder who the killer guitar was

Scott is a freakin genius. His knowledge and technique are outstanding. The iPhone dilemma: we used to see Eric Johnson, Holdsworth and others back in Houston, and their crew and management would be hawking and confiscating cassettes. It was the best way, although some of the bootlegs we came away with are priceless. The phone thing is ridiculous though

I love Pat Metheny for all his great compositions and playing on his PMG Metheny Group albums. But for guitar solos - it has to be Scott Henderson. On each listening to this - his last album - I keep discovering something new. Simply put - in my opinion - he's the most awesome musically talented constantly surprising and inventive **LOUD** electric guitarist around. Its not about the number of notes-per-minute but what he puts into each note and the note-choices he makes. Its no wonder he is the "guitarists guitarist" And of course there are other awesome jazz/fusion players out there too - Rosenwinkel, Krantz, Julian Lage, Ford, etc etc. But Henderson just KICKS ASS!

Scott's a total pro. He was always great, and he's evolved incredibly well. I first heard him on a record insert from Guitar Player around '86, about the time he was with Chick Corea's Elektric Band. I also saw him play with Chick in a jazz fest on cable around the same time, then became familiar with Gambale when Henderson departed to reform Tribal Tech. Both are dynamite players, but Frank was a better fit for Chick's project and Scott seemed happier in Tribal Tech and working with Zawinul. What I love about Scott's playing is how natural it sounds. You hear a maestro totally at one with his instrument.
