KCCK’s Featured CD for July is “Swallow Tales” from guitarist John Scofield. Steve Swallow is one of the most versatile and satisfying bassists around, and his quirky and thoroughly appreciated compositions have been played by the likes of Gary Burton, Chick Corea, Bill Evans and Art Farmer. John Scofield celebrates the music of his friend and mentor in an outgoing and spirited recording, exploring a broad range of Swallow’s tunes, with Mr. Swallow himself playing bass and Des Moines native Bill Stewart on drums. “Swallow Tales” is from ECM Records.
