John Scofield - Who's Who
Early Scofield from '80, and defnitely in a "Fusion" vein. Some of it sounds timeless...some, not so much. But there's something interesting in every track.
Sourced this copy used from Japan...and as has been my experience, even though described as having a "heavy mark" on one side, it plays fine and is in immaculate condition otherwise.
I know, @RoboticistDuck - I need to get there and go to Benfiddich *and* some LP stores!

John Scofield - Bar Talk
This Japan-only LP from 1980 is the first to feature the John Scofield Trio: Scofield, Steve Swallow (bass) and Adam Nussbaum (drums).
Typically great playing from the three, and Scofield, at this point, really knows what tone he's going for. Interesting choice of bass voicing from Swallow, too.

Marc Johnson - Bass Desires
Johnson, on acoustic bass, brings together Bill Frisell and John Scofield on guitar, adds in Peter Erskine on drums, and you end up with one hell of a combo.
Melodic, funky, fun - and a great recording.

John Scofield - Swallow Tales
Here's a great trio (Scofield, Steve Swallow [bass] and Bill Stewart [drums]) playing a number of Swallow compositions.
I guess they knocked this out in an afternoon in 2019, which is nearly less time than it takes me to listen & write one of these tiny posts. >sigh<
For sure on the "jazzier" side of Scofield, but no less enjoyable, with great sound and musicianship (of course). Another winner.
On ECM - flawless pressing.

John Scofield - Hand Jive
I'm sure there's a weak John Scofield album, but I haven't found it yet.
This came out right before his collaboration with Pat Metheny, and he's in top form in a group with Larry Goldings (organ), Bill Stewart (drums) and Eddie Harris (sax).

John Scofield & Pat Metheny - I Can See Your House From Here
Two incredibly distinctive and skilled jazz guitarists meet in spectacular fashion. This isn't just a great set of originals from 1994, it's beautifully recorded (digitally) and an absolute sonic showcase, beautifully mastered for vinyl and flawlessly pressed at RTI.
Ten thumbs up.

Pat Metheny & John Scofield - 'I Can See Your House From Here' (1994)
#JohnScofield & #PatMetheny rocking at times, create subtle acoustic moments and are jazzy all over. Their very different #guitar styles complement each other lovely.
