 Great CD, but vinyl was transcendent May 6, 2008
B. Borgerson (Ashland, OR United States)
As noted by other reviewers, the CD is an after-the-fact remix. It's reasonably faithful to the music, but it lacks the transcendent, diaphanous reverie of the original vinyl mix. This tracks are 5-plus, but the mix brings it down to a four...plus.
Trivia note: Background vocals by three sweet ladies, one of whom, Donna Thatcher, married Keith Godchaux, then returned to Muscle Shoals in her post-dead career.

I haven't listened to the entire album, but "Loan Me a Dime" is incredible! We're talking about a lengthy and HIGHLY energetic and detailed guitar jam that positively RIPS! After hearing Silk Degrees I had no idea there was music like this on early Boz Scaggs records. Awesome!

. . .like listening to Boz Scaggs, the self named album. I lived in Sacramento back when this album came out. Boz started playing at the State Fair for free to anyone who paid to get in after he left The Steve Miller Band. I was really blessed to have been there in the very beginning. He lived in the Bay area (San Francisco) so Sacramento gigs were often. By the time he started opening for bands like "Delaney & Bonnie and Friends", his future had begun. I have almost everything he did with the Steve Miller Band. It just doesn't get any better than this Boz Scaggs 1st out of the box. Though I felt Silk Degrees was a sell out at the time, it did bring him back into fasion, and there are also some great tunes on this. I was able to finally get the "previously Out of Print" Scagg's album, because of Silk Degrees. If you get a chance, catch him live, something cozy, like The House of Blues, you won't forget it. Just isn't anything much better, but I admit I am biased.

This album has been with me since 1969. I keep buying new versions as I wear out the LP, Cassette, LP again, and CD. The is comfort food to give me the warm feeling of a familiar place. Side 2 is the better one, with my all-time favorite, Loan me a dime. I saw Boz do this live in 1970 or 71, and it was transcendental.
This was one the greats! January 23, 2007

I got the original LP when it first came out and that was my first time listening to Boz. I remember being blown away by the guy "helping" out on the guitar. Little did us young rural kids know what Duane "Skydog" Allman would go on to create. Imagine if he had stayed off that darn bike and could join Boz on his tours today. This was Boz at his best and even though he has done "Loan Me a Dime" many times since and continues to play it with his current band, that one song on this CD is worth the cost. The rest of the cuts are none too shabby by themselves!
