It’s been a life of music - five decades in the case of Boz Scaggs, and spread far and wide with remarkable range in style and influence. From his early West Coast rock and soul bands, through his smooth '70s Hollywood years with hits like "Lowdown" and "Lido Shuffle," to his more recent explorations in R&B, jazz and the Great American Songbook, the versatile singer/songwriter/guitarist has created a highly personal, unfailingly soulful repertoire.
This album marks the final piece of an unofficial trilogy for Scaggs, which began with the Steve Jordan-produced albums Memphis and A Fool to Care. "I'm a child of the '50s," he explains, "and grew up on the music of my parents’ generation - the post war swingers, the Hit Parade era, the semi-classical Gershwin albums and the American songbook of show and film music. Then came early rock radio; with Elvis, Fats Domino, Chuck Berry and Little Richard, the high-watt late night radio out of Nashville and Chicago and doowop out of the East Coast. All the same stars that dotted the musical heaven our generation grew up under. Particular to my coming of age in the Southwest was hearing that crazy stuff out of south Texas and Louisiana. It was something different from that which my fellow teenyboppers in other areas were hearing. These albums, to some degree, are an exploration of those early influences, tracked through different periods of my experience.”

Boz getting back to his roots. This one's got a good Jimmy Reed feel to it. Nice!

[@erock2229]

It's a Jimmy Reed cover so that makes sense.

Mickey Raphael on the harpoon? Quality of the instrumentals is a noteworthy element of Boz Scaggs' productions from the very beginning.... Sky Dog on Loan Me right up to this fine knee bending, heel stomping rendition today. Most excellent!

Jimmy Reed!!!!! The Big 'Boz' Man

[@jbass69goat84]

Exactly what I thought the first time that I heard this song. Always heard that imitation was the greatest form of flattery so major props to Boz and thanks for all of the music that you left us with Jimmy.
