Boz at his Best! Absolutely love it! Cheers Bill, you just made my day!!

Starts to go on my nerves!

This is the Boz Scaggs that I like. Not the mid late 70s crapola. Of course, this tune is a bit dated judging by the monetary request. I guess that's what is charming and genuine about this tune.

Bozzie is - and ever will be -one of the Greatest!!!!

At the Golden Gate Park memorial concert for Bill Graham, it was this song, played at high volume, that in some way made the entire event worthwhile. This song was a staple on FM radio way back when so called underground stations were where one heard the better music of the day. Now, Radio Paradise not only serves the same general purpose, but does it much better.

A friend of mine claims he picked Boz Skaggs up hitchhiking out east once back in the day.  The story is that his car had broken down, and he needed to get to a gig—but also found time to party.  True or not, I believe it just because I want to.  And right..  RP doesn't get much better than this.

absolutely wonderful song...
 

Oh, in the era of dime phone calls from a phone booth. It just wouldn't be the same now...  "Can somebody lend me their cell"

Wow, I always thought that I had had a good musical grounding in the late sixties/early seventies. but this one passed me by entirely - my great loss! The track is excellent - really into it, despite the fact I was 14 when it was recorded, all those years ago!

BBC4, part of our great BBC, has just showed a documentary on Southern Rock, including the Allmans = saved on the hard drive ready for a night in by the woodburner..

An epic 1970s tale about a group of rebel rock bands who rose up from one of the most unpopular, marginalised parts of the USA - the Deep South - and conquered the world. The Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd and others that followed did this entirely on their own terms, blending the music of the region - blues, country, rock and roll - with a gung-ho attitude that set the South, and then America, on fire. Their diverse styles, from juke joint boogie and country-rock honks to cosmic blues blasts, had a huge cultural and political impact, even helping to elect Jimmy Carter as president in 1976. Their extraordinary adventure is brought to life through vivid period archive and contributions from the survivors of those crazy times, including Gregg Allman, REM's Mike Mills, Doug Gray, Al Kooper, Bonnie Bramlett, Charlie Daniels and other key figures in the movement. 

Smokin' that jam, Duane!

Back in the day,this is the kind of stuff DJ's played when they had to take a dump.
Ain't I right Bill ! 

bring it, Duane

Its very nice to hear the combination of guitar and organ! I like that so much!

Mmmm, Mmmmm, goood.

"Come On Home"  

Blown away. First time of hearing. It just builds and builds......Wow Wow Wow......

THIS is why I listen to RP. I had never heard this track before today after listening to all kinds of music almost daily for over 40 years. Marvellous stuff. Who knew Mr Scaggs was doing things like this before disco? 

Very happy that I loiter in this excellent place and contribute to its existence. 

Duane Allmon on lead...................... 

Oh man! I'm soooo glad to hear this on RP! It's right up there with Al Cooper's BS&T's "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know"!

Damn but this is good!

So nice to hear this from time to time.

Scaggs really was a terrific R&B vocalist.  But the Disco Alien ate him.

It's lovely, truly it is, but it took me two times with the PSD button to get through it.
