Quiet (album)

Quiet is an album by jazz guitarist John Scofield. As with his 1992 album Grace Under Pressure, Scofield chose to orchestrate his original compositions with horns. The album also features the electric bass of Steve Swallow, who was in Scofield's Trio of 1980-1983. Quiet is distinct in Scofield's discography as a solo album where he plays only acoustic guitar. Scofield returned to the album's format of adding orchestration to his trio of Swallow and drummer Bill Stewart on his 2007 album This Meets That.

gollark: It's because your programs end with `error`, presumably.
gollark: Hmm, so what you're saying is that tail calls are incomprehensible dark magic.
gollark: Tail calls are where you call a function at the end of a function or something, and this is magically optimized better because something something stack.
