From sweet and smooth classics, to new names, to old names with new music...the focus here, is to shine a little light on some damn fine music.
I'll find it. You can listen, review, or tell me I wouldn't know good music if it kicked me in the ass. I personally don't give a shit.

Boz Scaggs: Memphis
It's been five years since Boz Scaggs recorded a new album. That changed this week with the release of Memphis, a smooth R&B based album full of great 70's covers and musical history.
Recording down in Memphis at the famous Royal Studio, where Willie Mitchell produced the great artists of Hi Records, including the best by Al Green, Scaggs and producer Steve Jordan have invited all the ghosts held captive in the studio, to join in on the fun.What they have created is a soulful journey through the hit songs of the south in the 1970's, and beyond.
From Al Green to Steely Dan to Mink DeVille, the songs picked for this release fit Scaggs so perfectly they just ooze with his own style and tone.
