I do like "Lowdown" a lot. The main little riff makes me want to rollerskate backwards, and I've never done that.

I always thought this was song by some black 70s soul legend. I couldn't believe it when I found out it was Boz Scaggs. It's fabulous.

"Lowdown" however, like the entirety of "Silk Degrees," is completely awesome.

I mean, they aren't brilliant or anything, but there are definitely some reet blunted-out grooves on those things that you wouldn't necessarily associate with the name. *Especially* the great lenghty "Now I Live (and Now my Life is Done)" -- that's a tour de force. some crazy mug sampled it too, I think; I can't remember who. It's on Putting in time on the Planet Earth...

Man, what the fuck is up w/gemm.com pricing? do people really not want to sell their records? 90$?! fuck that. (although there is a cheaper one, i'm not buying records right now)

Maybe this is well known, but I had no idea:
According to the DVD commentary for Saturday Night Fever, the producers intended to use the song "Lowdown" by Boz Scaggs in the rehearsal scene between Tony and Stephanie in the dance studio, and choreographed their dance moves to the song. [...] As John Travolta asserted, "The Bee Gees weren't even involved in the movie in the beginning ... I was dancing to Stevie Wonder and Boz Scaggs."

I wonder if Joanna levesque or Joel Hailey knows that song? Jonathan Richman most likely would not care for it…
