I am a 59 year old African American man. This song came out in 1976 when I was 13. My siblings took awhile to warm up to it. But being a musician and going on to be a future DJ I just knew this song was a monster in its own unique way. I was right. This song won R&B song of the year in 1976 I believe at the American Music Awards. Considering the outstanding songs that were out at that time during that Disco Heavy year that itself says what an accomplishment that was.

William "Boz" Scaggs started out as the second guitarist and backing vocalist in the Steve Miller Band, but he left after "Sailor", their second album. (You can hear him on Steve's first hit "Living in the USA" and he had a few songs of his own on those albums, too.) He's done fine on his own, though. EVERYONE will recommend "The Lido Shuffle".

Boz started out in the Steve Miller Band (1st 2 albums), before ending-up in Muscle Shoals (not, actually, in Muscle Shoals.) @ F.A.M.E. Records & meeting a kid that Rick Hall (the owner of FAME ) met sleeping in the parking lot. Kid was named: Duane Allman (before forming The Allman Brothers Band with his brother Gregg, etc.)👍👍. -Boz ended-up covering Fenton Robinson's "Somebody Loan Me A Dime" (as: "Loan Me A Dime"). This is Boz in the '70s (when he was, already established as a solo artist.) The "secret" to this tour (and this album and a couple around it) is that: numerous future members of Toto were members of Boz's touring band (along with Les McCann, who is the original guitar soloist on this song.). Jeff Porcaro on drums, I believe Mike Porcaro on keys, David Hungate on bass. ...These guys were all studio regulars and played on tons&tons of albums -both together & separately!-). Anyhow: Jeff played on a number of cuts on this album and the guys I mentioned, went out as the touring outfit for Boz Scaggs' Silk Degrees. 🤘🤘 [The "huge secret" is that: WHILE they were recording: TOTO IV (That's the album w/"Rosanna" & "Africa" on it), as their night job (yep. They did this after a full day of working on a gig for someone else!), d'you know what their "day job" was??: Recording tracks for michael jackson's Thriller (for Quincy Jones & m.j.)! Yup! No yolk! 😋😛😂👍👍]

This amazing song has no catagory. It did NOT fit in with what was happening on the radio, when it went 100% full crazy popular and is obviously TIMELESS. This is one of my ALL TIME very favorite songs. Just perfect. A bit of jazz, a bit of everything....and the lyrics are 100% timeless too. Smooth as silk. Thanks so much for sharing!

Boz Skaggs used to play with The Steve Miller Band back in the late 60’s and into the 70’s. A very unique voice indeed. This particular version was from the “Dukes Of September” concerts where Donald Fagen of Steely Dan fame and Michael McDonald of “The Doobie Bros.” fame played. It is a phenomenal concert!!

This was from the late 70's, so this sound was a fusion of a little R&B with a little funk and a smidgen of disco. Back then genres often blended into each other because people just loved everything that sounded good and wanted to dance to it in the clubs or at parties. Back then you could hear every type of music played on the top 40 or FM radio and no one cared too much about the genre, just if the music sounded good and they could vibe to it. If you liked this and Hall & Oates, you should listen to Bobby Caldwell, "What You Won't Do For Love" and Canadian singer Gino Vannelli, "I Just Wanna Stop".

Boz Skaggs was lead vocalist in a band that included horns, woodwinds and keyboards on top of the usual Rock & Roll sound that was guitars, percussion and vocal. I believe it is fair to say they were really a Rhythm & Blues group. There were a few others that followed that same formula and several had good success on the Popular Music Radio stations. Groups including Chicago, Gerry Rafferty and E.L.O.. I'm sure there were other examples as well.

This LP won the Grammy in 1976 for best record. It charted in the top ten on four different Billboard charts, including soul and R&B. I've seen him 3 times in the last 5 years and he never disappoints. He has a huge catalog with a ton of blues.

Other great ones include "Lido Shuffle", "Breakdown Dead Ahead", "Jojo", "Look What You've Done to Me", and "Miss Sun".

This song was the perfect mix of R&B, rock, jazz and blues. Blew everyone away back in 1976. The album was probably one of the best of the 1970s with songs like "It's Over", "Georgia", and "What Can I Say". Look for other songs by Boz such as "Slow Dancer", "Jojo", "Breakdown Dead Ahead", "Miss Sun", "Loan Me A Dime" and "Might Have To Cry".
