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).

love "Lido Shuffle," but "We're All Alone."

remains popular in Japan

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

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

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

Nice!

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

cosi fan whitford (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Sunday, 29 April 2012 17:36 (eleven years ago) link

starting with these:

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

Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Sunday, 29 April 2012 17:38 (eleven years ago) link

and "What Can I Say" and "It's Over"

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.

seven years pass...

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

I wonder what Boz would sound like singin' with the Dan

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'.

Ned Caligari (Tom D.), Thursday, 16 May 2019 21:13 (four years ago) link

That would've been even cooler
