When I titled this tune, I had completely forgotten that John Scofield has an album called What We Do. Anyway, I love the voicing for the opening chord which is just a rootless A-13 #9. I like the way the harmony keeps back-cycling on itself and I also like the cyclical nature of the solo section. In other words, it’s only 15 bars, so the concluding 16th bar is already bar 1, and guess what? You’ve already committed to playing another chorus.
