C or D: "Lido Shuffle"
― Doctor Casino, Sunday, 22 April 2012 05:30 (twelve years ago) link
I have done it at karaoke and it's fun! You have to be game for riding out the long solo but the highs are worth it. The one time I did it the karaoke guy was like, omg, THAT song! after I got done, clearly having been totally mystified when he'd entered in my request.

I prefer the Coolidge version of "We're All Alone" (it sounds like it was written for her voice specifically and no other), so probably gotta go with "Lowdown." Although I remember a time when I was about 10 where "Lido Shuffle" was so ubiquitous it's kind of hard NOT to click that button."

can't really make it out there, but Boz Scaggs and Pat Travers rule. Cheap Trick and Disco suck. Star Trek the Motion Picture.

JoJo was almost my choice, but I burned out on it recently--I hate that feeling when you play a favorite too many times!

Apologies to Silk Degrees fans: while it's marvelous I'm more enamored with Middle Man, the closest that Scaggs came to appropriating New Wave (as performed by Toto).

And Lowdown it is. There is no song here that's far superior.

Yup. Lido was the favorite over on the main thread. Good order.

there's songs with zero votes that'd be the best songs in many many other artist's catalogues. viva boz

starting with these:
Breakdown Dead Ahead (Scaggs, Foster) 0You Make It So Hard (To Say No) (Scaggs) 0

and "What Can I Say" and "It's Over"
― cosi fan whitford (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Sunday, 29 April 2012 19:18 (eleven years ago) link
the drumming on "It's Over" is so sick & the opening with backing vocals up front trick (Boz loves this one) works so beautifully

listening to side 2 of Silk Degrees at 5 a.m where I'm at in the dark alone in a hotel...this album isn't just top 5 for me, it's top 3. So so so so so so good.

I love pocarro's drums on "love me tomorrow"; dude has the magic touch.

If he posts a video playing along to “Loan Me a Dime” then I’ll be impressed.

There has to be someone out there who read this and thought, "I don't know - Boz with England Dan and John Ford Coley?"
(However, if you were seeking a lead-in to "Lido Shuffle" on your tastefully-curated Yacht Rock playlist, you can't go wrong with either "Peg" or "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight".)

The Dukes of September tour featuring Boz, Donald Fagan, and Michael McDonald basically answered this, right?
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Thursday, 16 May 2019 21:08 (four years ago) link
Read that as 'The Dukes of Stratosfear tour featuring Boz, Donald Fagan, and Michael McDonald'.
