Read a story about Boz Scaggs in Rolling Stone several years back. He has a habit of going on tour with his gang and at the end, he divides up the proceeds equally between all band members, regardless of position. His share is the same as the drummer or background vocals. No wonder they stick with him for years.

Boz is cooler than the other side of the pillow!

This song was voted number one best R&B Song of 1976 and won a Grammy.

You know they're great performers when their live performance sounds so much like the studio version. Brings me back to a simpler time, most definitely. :)

This won a Grammy. One of those songs you never get tired of. Freshman year in college for me. Half the dorm rooms had this album playing.

The man who came up with that bassline was David Hungate... who, of course, along with others who recorded with Boz, went on to form Toto.

Sweet sounds from nearly a half century past, still holds up . . . just fine.

All I can say is “thank you”. Coolest song ever....

I have loved this song for 30 + years, It's a great "road Trip" jam...and Boz is a classic, I'm sure your Mom would remember his slow jams, (Love, Look What You've Done to Me, We're All Alone,) His music has held up through the years, and remains a staple of Pop, Soul/Funk and Jazz fans. I have Lowdown on a couple of my play lists, right before Jojo and Lido Shuffle. Boz is still out there doin' it, as far as I know..So happy you took the time to get a taste of his music.

This was released in 1976, when I was 18 years old. I bought the album. I had just started training as a nurse in the UK. Best memories ever. Im 62 now, still a nurse..........but things aint the same.

I've loved Boz since his days with Steve Miller! This guy is so fricken SMOOTH! What's not to like, his album Silk Degrees is phenomenal!!

Boz the definition of Kool.

It’s funny that there are some singers voices that I may not personally like as a stand-alone instrument BUT somehow it works to perfection in everything they do and could never be replaced- I call it “texture”.

Never heard or seen this before. I’ve never really heard anything by Boz Scaggs...Beautiful soulful bluesy jazzy voice 🎤🙌🏽 been under a rock, I guess. Thank you for this video. Portland Oregon USA 🇺🇸

Takes me back to the early 70s. I had this album on vinyl and on cassette. I wore out the cassette playing in my car every day. I loved this song and "Lido Shuffle".

This is from one of those albums that EVERYONE had, fantastic album start to finish.

All of his album Silk Degrees is worth listening to......

This is a Boz Scaggs classic. You can’t touch him with this song. 👍

Same show listen to "love look what you've done to me". Awesome. His backup singers are exceptional.

I never thought that his live version will match so well the studio version. This song is not meant to be explained. It is one of those songs that I wish it never ends. Jazzy, refreshing, with soul taste and soft rock. Your body sway naturally without effort of your part. Groovy and the background sweet voices with cadence and class. The ultimate tune for a night of dance and romance. The bass, the guitar and that sax with unexpected turns made my head spin. This song for me never gets old since day one

In this performance he’s older, and the “Kermit the Frog” qualities are more pronounced. His younger voice, the one I’m most familiar with, had a slightly rounder quality. Ya, that bass line...

I could listen to that for hours loved it. Thankyou for this

A very underated Artist. His music, voice and lyrics are so smooth. Boz Scaggs is AWESOME! 👍💃

My memory of this song is from middle school - we had music piped in and they played this song every lunch period for a like a month. We loved it.

The song is filthy smooth.

Lido Shuffle

Smoothest Funk in the WORLD!!😎🤙

Look what you've done to me, is a good one by Boz

This song is so funky & cool. Love it.

Ty, I saw Boz Scaggs in 1987 in concert at NYC when the Blackout occoured (all lights and electricity went out), the concert could not finish but Boz finished the concert a week later and honored our tickets. Keep swingin Boz".

That song was ALL OVER the radio when I was a kid. I love Boz Scaggs.

The best rock/jazz fusion you can hear...that’s talent!!!!👍👏👏👏👏👏✌️😎

Caramel covered gravel. That's that I think of when I hear him.

Probably my favorite song ever. You should listen to the studio version to hear the drums. I haven’t heard too many drummers who can reproduce that drumming.

I would swear he wasnt white. Love his soulful voice. I was shocked that I never realized he sang Look What You've Done To Me. Love me some Boz.

This guy does some Baaaad music...

This song was released when I was a young Airman in the Air Force and when my son was born. Every time I hear this song it reminds me of the day my wife, my one month old son and me stopping at a small town gas station in Tallahassee, Florida on our way back home to my assigned base in Valdosta, Georgia in my old Ford Maverick. I love this song for the good memories in my life and it’s one of my iTune songs in my collection. I still play it today, how could I not. Thank you so much for this video. You made my day. :)

Great tune, the essence of cool!Played all over the radio in the day!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I own this Concert on DVD....It is one I never get tired of....The whole concert is superb. As good as it gets. Boz Scaggs Greatest Hits Live. Nothing was spared to do this event.

Someone mentioned TOTO but didn’t mention one of the best drummers ever that recorded/created this beat and played on everybody’s albums. A founding member of TOTO Jeff Porcaro.. The label was dropping Boz after this album (Pre decided) but the band pretty much did it for nothing moneywise yet created one of the biggest selling albums ever. Silk Degrees made Boz a star and he gave them all 30k each for helping him. A really cool story of true musicians helping each other. Look up Jeff Porcaro @MRM You will see all the hits some you have reacted to. Peace ✌🏻

This is one of the songs that stuck with me riding the bus from school to both the YMCA, and The Boys Club after school in the very early 80's. That and anything from Of The Wall by MJ were almost always on rotation. Don't even get me started on the school skate playlist.

This song is straight up funk! It takes me back to much easier times and a time where only great singers were on the radio.

Now your talking, Boz is as smooth as they get!

This is why I like watching your reviews. I get to listen to stuff I don’t hear any more and have forgotten about. What a relaxing song.

This is one of the great songs off of one of my favorite albums of all time, Silk Degrees. There is NOT one bad or filler track on the album. If you haven’t already done so listen to the album cut or the extended version from that time. Boz came out of The Steve Miller Band (Joker) and this album was recorded in North Hollywood, CA (The Valley) and featured many members of The Wrecking Crew, including Louie Shelton on guitar who in the studio riffed what would become the signature sound of the song. Three other members of the band went on to form Toto (Africa) and David co-wrote with Boz the songs. There is history all over this album. It is a masterpiece. Nice reaction.

Boz is Badass.

His Silk Degrees album is one of the very best of the late 70s - you’ll love the studio version of this Close your eyes and just pick a track Check out Georgia , Lido Shuffle and What Can I Say for starters Beyond anything on Silk Degrees check out JoJo or Miss Sun - enjoy

Ahhhhhh!!!! Great choice of a song. Boz Scaggs takes me back to the disco days of the mid 70's. Don't let his voice now, fool you. It does sound a little funny as he's gotten older. Listen to the original studio version. His voice is much clearer and crisper. That being said, I hadn't heard that song in a long time and it does bring up a lot of memories. And you're right about the weed LOL.

Great reaction, M.R. Man! Fond memories of Boz Scaggs. Fond memories at school dances🤠. I am having fun watching other people enjoy music that engulfed our childhood. We all jammed in each other's basements until we got thrown out but that went on for years. Our parents still loved us🤔. Fond memories. Anyway brother thank you and God Bless you.

Love Boz Scaggs voice! 💖👏

Real Music.

Yeah! White boy soul/funk at its finest! Smooooooth

Boz was part of the soundtrack of my youth. Good one!!!

Listened to this one on cassette endlessly traveling from gig to gig. Even played "The Lido Shuffle and "We're All Alone" quite a bit at the time (1976). Genre fusions were the thing in the mid-70s. Skaggs kind of fushioned the fusions of the time to create something special. Groove/pocket/feel was everything back in those days, along with the lush production values afforded by 16 and 24 track tape machines and the new recording consoles. Everything came together right for this album - songs, musicians, producer - and, of course, the timing.

Oh that Dirty Lowdown. High school was such fun with tunes like this. Thanks MRM.

Great song, but the original studio cut is better when Scaggs was younger...thanks anyway.

I might be old but we had the BEST music!

Yeah, MRM. That's Will Lee on bass--you've already been bitten, I see. Guitarist is Drew Zingg, who put in a lot of time with Steely Dan's tours.

Brilliant song by a brilliant man..we need MORE from Boz Scaggs Boz is the BUZZZ, one of the best albums from the 70's..every song on it was wonderful...my favourite from him is Look What You've done to me"..and no your not alone i have my MP3 set up in the car for whatever mood i am feeling at that time..Keep Safe Keep Strong My Dear Friend

Lol I’m again.boz Skaggs rocks. He had one of the highest selling cd out. There, Silk degrees . Anything you listen to will knock you out. He’s such an entertainer. Jo jo, love look at what you’ve done to me , true baby making tune. Lol My personal fave was low down. But his catalog is outstanding and yes dude I won’t even get out of the car until it’s over..like I’ve saud I’m a 74 yr old rocker grannie

You might want to check out The Dukes of September- a group including Boz, Michael Mcdonald and Donald Fagan (of Steely Dan)..They mostly did covers of hits they had done individually or with their original groups......Great stuff!!

"You gotta have a jones for this, jones for that, running with the Joneses now just ain't where it's at." Thats just a great line, lol! Boz Scaggs grew up in the Dallas, Texas area (Plano, TX specifically. back when it was still a little farm town.) He was friends with Steve Miller who grew up in nearby in Dallas. Boz became the vocalist in Steves band, the Marksmen. They later attended college together, playing in bands. Boz appears on Steve's first two albums. Boz eventually signed with Atlantic Records.Duane Allman plays on Boz's second solo album

My absolute favorite! Welcome to Boz World, come in and explore, this band was my high school jam. Had tickets for last month and with everything going on it was cancelled, can't wait till next year...fingers crossed.

One day back in the 70s, I was walking through a record store and they were playing this song. I said, "Who's that?" They told me and I said, "I want it." No regrets.

Great song to use for a reaction video! While I was in law school in 1979 I had an entire 45 minute cassette that I would listen to while studying with Lowdown back to back for the entire 45 minutes. His voice is very smooth and distinctive.

I called my play list 'car rock' back when i would burn cds' for riding from place to place.I still have them to this day, about 20!

Gotta listen to the studio version of "Lido Shuffle" w/ the great Jeff Porcaro groovin a hard shuffle.

So smoooth! Love Boz Scaggs! Takes me waaaaaaaaaaaaaay back!

Forever Classic. I’m glad to see the live version! My fav Scaggs song.

The guy playing bass is it the current bassist for Elton John.

now THIS was good music, I loved this

If there's a bad song on this record, I can't remember it. One of the biggest selling records of that time

Man...been listening to this since birth!

Yes……. Boz Scaggs one of the greatest ❤

Boz had a strange voice but it fit everything he did. And speaking of bass...anything of Jaco pastorious and you will be a fan forever and a day. One of the best bar none

Ty, you should have been there! It was great. The 70's totally rocked.

'Jo Jo got his gun' is another good one.

Check out Miss Sun sung by him. Has a funky feel to it.

Oh I saw him in concert when this song was popular I was like 15 ,that was over 40 years ago lol think I paid 10 bucks for my ticket. Great childhood memories...♡

I remember when I was a little girl listening to this song on the radio. Loved it!

This was the one sing back in da club in days got everyone on the dance floor for bumping, grinding sexy moves.. damn I miss those days lol im74 And was out there booging .. my hubby sure could grove to this one...

I listen to Boz all through college.

I don’t care what anyone says “live” is always better

It's one of those songs you put on the turntable and just groove to the song. He was once a member of the Steve Miller Band but went his own way on music. Sounds great live! First time I've heard this live. Good job!

I will keep on saying the 70s was awesome for great music.😊😊.he started out in the 60s with a guy he met at school named Steve Miller and they formed the The Steve Miller Band.

I wish you lived somewhere around here! I really enjoy watching you react to songs I grew up with.

Reminds me of some wonderful nights with my late wife. I saw Boz twice always a great show.

When I was in film school, we had to do a project for Communications class, and we were given the assignment of defining the concept of Self-Fulfillment on the Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs pyramid. I danced the Hustle to this song. We got an A for the project because our point about self-fulfillment was part of the Disco scene where people could go into the Discos and pretend to be whatever they wanted people to think they were, which is what the Dirty Lowdown is all about. Someone who isn't all that running around pretending to be all that.

I liked this version, but the studio version from 45 years ago when Boz was a much younger man (as were we all) was a tad better. He has to be in his early 70s, because I'm 64, and I think he's about 8 yrs older then me. He is so smooth. Lido Shuffle was another huge hit he had in the 70s. Thanks MRM.

Why boy gots da funk =)

I didn't realize how much I liked Boz Scaggs until I got his Anthology CD's - there's a wealth of music on there that I was not familiar with - he had a treasure trove of music on that album. Both discs are full.

Love this tune. Danced many dances to this one.

PLEASE STOP MESSING WITH THESE GREAT ICONIC SONG!!!!!!!! 🎵

Yeah it is solid. Rock solid. No fluff

Another great 70s song from my childhood

Love Boz Scaggs, I loved this version, even though i love the studio version better.. but it’s def a song thats in nyc bars after hours with an after dinner cocktail, love it... also a song I like for a nice speed walk before a workout 🖤!

Oh Mr Steve, thank you for bringing this! Silk Degrees...Boz Skaggs would play over the system when I was at work back in the day...I ask you, HOW'S A WOMAN SUPPOSED TO KEEP WORKING when this groove sounds off?! I danced amidst the clothing racks I was stocking, that's how. Good stuff.

Love Boz Scaggs - great song!

Now, you've done it. You've broken out the Reserve Special Blend! There can be no turning back now.

SO GLAD YA FINALLY GOT TO BOZ!SO GREAT!MEMORIES! THANK YOU
