I think i have Silk Degrees album still, it was a great time because i think Meatloaf's Bat out of hell came out around the same time.

This is thE Boz Scaggs album, Silk Degrees! Zero filler. Georgia from this is another unforgettable tune ✌️

Jay & Amber, you'd like his "Jojo" and "Breakdown Dead Ahead" !!

This album is packed with hits.....two of my favorite ballads "We're All Alone" and "Harbor Lights"..... Both are fire!

@wpollock1, you'll find that Canadian Bruce Murray (Ann Murray's younger brother) does a great cover version of "We're All Alone" and Rita Coolidge also does a pretty good version.

Boz Scaggs has that smooth R& B Jazzy Sound. What can I say then to play more like "JoJo", "Miss Sun" or "Breakdown Dead Ahead".

Harbor Lights or Georgia. Under rated . This whole album is awesome.

Great timing on this reaction. Boz Scaggs is currently touring and I got to see him live in concert last night. He is 79 years old and his voice is still strong, including his falsetto. Other songs that are bangers are Harbor Lights, Georgia and We’re All Alone. He did all of these along with Lowdown and Lido Shuffle and more last night. Loved his music since the 70s!

I agree great timing! I attended his concert tour last year and Boz was fantastic! His voice was strong and his guitar playing was really great. He received at least three encores. The outdoor venue was packed. We all wanted Boz to stay longer. It was super fun. I’m glad you got to see him perform. 😊

Boz Skaggs’ music always sounds so smooth, sophisticated, and classy to me.

Boz Skaggs is still so cool as he was back then. Great songs, great look and stage presence. And his voice is just so smooth. Great choice to react to. Love him ❤❤❤

Boz Skaggs did a great collaboration with legendary guitarist Duane Allman called Loan Me A Dime, great jam and one of his very best tunes. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎷🎶

"We're All Alone" from the same album is beautiful. I love Rita Coolidge's cover of that one.

This whole album is 🔥🔥🔥!

Every song on the Silk Degrees album was all over the radio back in the mid-70s. My sister bought the album and I may have played it more than she did. Harbor Lights is a wonderful ballad that you'll enjoy immensely. Blessings.❤

Boz has some nice romantic songs that not everyone can pull off so well. He's just plain cool.

“Love, look what you’ve done to me “ and “Breakdown dead ahead “ a couple of greats!!❤❤

I'm an audio nut. This album is one of my go-tos for testing stereos. This song allows you to do your basic eq settings, then you tweak, if your system can handle the ups and downs of " harbor lights"

I heard Jennifer Warnes album Famous Blue Raincoat was the standard. But Boz is great too.

Silk Degrees, one of the best album of the 70s

I believe that most of the musicians on this album were members of the band Toto before they were popular. They were session musicians at this point in their careers. The next song you should react to from Boz Skaggs is It's Over.

This was a definite must buy album when I was a junior in high school. I think I paid $3.99 for it, but every song was a hit. I had this on album, cassette, CD and eventually digital

Have a listen to Boz's "Look What You've Done to Me." It was written by Boz & David Foster for the Urban Cowboy soundtrack in 1980. From the same record, Anne Murray's "Could I Have this Dance?" And Joe Walsh's "All Night Long." The Urban Cowboy soundtrack is filled with hits from that movie!

I love Boz Skagg’s !! He’s got so many great songs!! I was able to see him live last year….he was great!!! 😃

This whole album awesome.'What do you want the girl to do" a fav of mine.

Silk Degrees is a front to back perfect album. There are great tracks on other albums as well, but the one you really need to listen to is Loan Me A Dime from his first album. Pure blues written by Fenton Robinson with Duane Allman on guitar.

His 1980 song You Can Have Me Anytime.

Boz Scaggs with David Paich, Steve Lukather, David Hungate and the great Jeff Porcaro, all from (about to form) Toto who are all over this album was an awesome combination!

Silk Degrees. The Best album of the entire 70s era.

I remember like it was yesterday when my sister bought this album!! Love his voice!!!

I'm so happy that you reacted to this song, which was part of my childhood (at the many late 70's early 80's parties my mother had.) Another song I remember from around this time was by Roxy Music "Love is the Drug", which is so cool - I'm sure you guys would love it ❣

Now might be the perfect time to request anything from The Dukes Of September. Its a supergroup of music heavyweights, Boz Skaggs, Don Fagen (Steely Dan) and Michael McDonald (Doobie Bros)

I’ve been patiently waiting two years for you to react to this song and you didn’t disappoint. This song and Georgia are my two favorite Boz Skaggs songs. This reaction made me happy and brought a smile to my face. Thank you.

Silk Degrees. Definitely in my top 10 best albums of all time. Not a bad track.

Great to see you making another visit to the “Silk Degrees” album which does not have a bad song on the whole album. Hope you guys check out the rest of the album. “Georgia”, “It’s Over”, “Jump Street”, “What Do You Want The Girl To Do” are great tracks which you guys should definitely check out.

I'd recommend checking out the studio recording of Lowdown, its amazing. Jo Jo is another you'll love. And for something slow and sexy, Slow Dancer or Harbor Lights. For more of a Motown vibe, You Make It So Hard (To Say No), more funky Angel Baby or Hercules. So glad you played this song, it's one of my favorites!

Thank you for playing, Boz. I adore his backup singer Mis Monet Owens. She sings a solo of Miss Sun. It takes a ton of talent to bring the light off Boz. He has a Boz Scaggs (Live) 2004 CD/DVD and videos on KZread that is just amazing. So smooth and intimate - you feel like you're there. Saw Boz twice. He's one cool cat. You should check out the DVD/KZread clips from that show. Good stuff for your channel.

Not enough reactors have tackled Miss Sun, the live version. Can’t beat that performance.

Will ask you once again to listen to Loan Me A Dime. It was originally 45 minutes long. They cut it down around 10 minutes for the album. Duane Allman plays unbelievable guitar on the song. It has horns, organ and a great change of pace in the song! You will not be disappointed. Would love to see your reactions to it!

Yah. It’s a lot

"What Can I Say" is the first track on the great 1976 "Silk Degrees" LP and, along with "Lowdown," my personal fav. "WCIS" was the 3rd single released from the LP (after "It's Over" (#38) and the smash hit "Lowdown" (#3) and, strangely, didn't perform chart-wise as I hoped it would. "WCIS" peaked @ #42 on the Billboard Hot 100, #68 on the R&B chart & bundled with "Lowdown" @ #12 on the Disco chart.

I bought this album when it first came out. What a fantastic memory.

Takes me back to dancing to this in the 70’s, fantastic album.

HEY guys this is from the LP Silk Degrees from 1976 songs from this LP Lido shuffle Georgia Hey Miss Sun We're all alone (later recorded by Rita Coolidge in 1977) Silk degrees was a a very underrated LP keep up the great work guys.

Boz SCAGGS is the definition of KOOL.....ya know it ‼️‼️💯❣️❣️

Some favorites from Boz - Miss Sun, Heart of Mine, and You Can Have Me Anytime. But, really, listening to anything from Boz is time well spent.

Timeless, classic...what's not to love!

What is B & B?

Back in the early 1970s, a group of my college theater buddies decided to start our own radio station. Being an extremely low budget endeavor, we got free space backstage of an old 1600 seat, art deco vaudeville theater that was built in 1928 and later converted to a movie theater. The city was trying to tear down the theater to build a mall. In an effort to save the theater and being naive college kids, with connections through the radio station, we decided to put on a concert. Our first concert was The Pointer Sisters and Butch Whacks and The Glass Packs. It was so successful, that we put on a second concert with Boz Scaggs and Pablo Cruise. Ultimately, we did not save the theater. 😢. But what a great experience.

He still tours. I saw him earlier in the month and everything was a treat to the ears and eyes. The band included a drummer, percussionist, key board player, bassist, he played several types of guitar, another guitar player, a sax/miscellaneous artist

One of the greatest albums ever made.

He made some classics - Hollywood, we're all alone, Love look what you've done to me.

One of the greatest albums by anyone, ever. My favorite song is We’re All Alone. Used to wear that single out at my bar’s juke box.

I love this song, i can still remember when it came out and i heard it on the radio. Wow❤❤

Boz is one of my all time favorites!

Jeff Porcaro puts on a drum clinic on this entire album. What a groove!

Saw him in concert great show. Love the music he produces.." We're All Alone" or "JoJo" live if you can

The album sounds as great now as it did when it first came out, a classic!💖

Thanks Robsquad. Saw him 53 years ago and have loved his music since.

Silk Degrees is still one of the finest albums out there, timeless songs and every track is a blast. I HIGHLY recommend "Harbour Lights" as your next Boz "The Buzz" Scaggs (as he was called back then) song to hit guys it is beautiful, Ty for hitting the Buzz again. Keep Safe Keep Strong 🦘🦘🦘🦘🎶🎶🎶🎶💖💖💖💖

What a unique voice Boz has! You guys are so cute reacting to the music. Love it. Thanks for sharing your appreciation of the music.

This is one of my favourite Boz Skaggs songs… just love it. It’s such an ‘ear-worm’! Even sometimes I hear (say) the washing machine go ‘d-deh-deh-deh-deh-deh…’ on its cycle , I’ll involuntarily and randomly sing ‘what can I sayyyyy’ !

Like Lowdown this is one of my favourite Boz Skaggs songs. It then was played contineously and all over the place in Europe in the disco era. When you went out for a dance, with music playing from the BeeGees, Peter Frampton, Gladys Knight & The Pips and the like, you went up to the dance floor and would show all the best dancemoves you had so as to impress the girls for it was such great music not only to listen to but also to dance on. Thanks for reacting to it.

My first girlfriend broke up with me, an hour later, "It's over" plays on the radio. My friends start cracking up. We ordered 4 pizzas and ate my sorrows away.

His album "Silk Degrees" was 🔥. I haven't heard this track in a while!! "Low down" & "Breakdown dead ahead" are 2 of my favs. Another, "Loan me a dime" from earlier times with Duane "Skydog" Allman, 1 of the greatest guitarists of all time from the Allman Brothers. 💓you guys!!

Boz Scaggs wrote such great jazzy soul songs. He's still performing too I believe. They put out a CD version of this album with a bonus live cut of this song where you can hear the bass really cranked up. There was a great single he put out called "Miss Sun." More jazz, more soul, more catchy melody.

Another great tune from an album just about everyone knew or owned back in the day!Smoother than butter!

You must listen to Georgia from this album. Actually every song on the album is amazing!

I grew up with this album!! It was my dad's. I even remember his son's name that's mentioned, Oscar! Hahaha!! I hope you get to "Miss Sun"!

This just took me back about 45 years. Incredible. Love me some Boz.

Love love love Boz. I cant tell you how many times we have seen in concert.

Im a black 23 year old and i have this album in my living room harbor lights is my favorite i love boz scaggs so much my grandma favorite song buy him was a song called a clue he has allot of good hits💖💖💖💖💖

Georgia and Harbour lights are the next big 2 on the album. I’m 52. Been listening to this album since I was a kid

Heard this wonderful song when I was little, brings me back!

I saw him in concert about 4 years ago. The show was great and he was a very likable person.

Ain't goin' wrong with Boz Skaggs....so smooth. Keep it up, RSR! Nicely done!

"Lowdown" and "JoJo" are my 2 favorite Boz songs but man he had so many other great tunes, like this one. Great artist.

This whole album is great.

Love the Boz. One of my favorite songs is 'Lone Me A Dime' w/Duane ''Sky Dog" Allman accompanying on guitar. Pure blues.

Haven't heard this album in such a long time, amazingly good album.

How about some “we’re all alone”? Either version, Boz or Rita’s

Yep… great call , this is a super funky rock track , a duality that Boz excelled in …✊ 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The band "The Silk Degrees" basically became Toto. This album was fire. Every song, whether a pop song, a ballad or a soul groove was awesome.

I had the LP, cassette, and the CD. This whole album is a classic!

Look What You've Done to Me is the Boz Scaggs single you should hear. Amber will love it (Yes, it's a ballad.).

His album “Middle Man” is basically a Toto album with Boz fronting it. Best of both worlds. Amazing. 🥸😎😀

I bought this album in Philadelphia while a student at Drexerl University 1976. So, whenever I hear this album (Silk Degrees) It takes me back that time and place. And I agree with other comments that the entire album is FIRE! In fact it's so good I consider it to be in the top ten albums of the seventies - for real.

When you did Boz live on stage video, he was much older than when he released this song. Hence the higher voice😉 Wore out my 8 tracks of Boz back in the 70’s😁

Silk Degrees! One of the best albums ever. Every song is next level. ❤

You really need to do Loan Me A Dime, this is vintage Boz, 1968 with Duane Allman on guitar

First tract that opens the album and sets the tone for his R&B-based sound.

This album has fabulous music to dance to. Just love him.

Vinyl, cassette AND 8-track - HELL yeah!

His album "Slow Dancer" has some great cuts: "Hercules" , "I Got Your Number " to name a couple.

Before Boz became an "overnight sensation" he worked with Steve Miller early on and on his second album from 1969 worked with Muscle Shoals rhythm section and a young Duane Allman and from that album came "Loan Me a Dime" which is an absolute classic. I hope against hope that you would choose to react to it and change the way you hear music. Thanks for upload.

sometime when you have some extra time listen to Boz's version of Loan Me a Dime(over 12 mins)...a blues classic!! and guest playing on the album it's from, including on this song is Duane Allman!!
