    He was not a member of Toto. Members of Toto were basically some of the best session players in the biz. They played on Boz’s albums. Jojo, Breakdown Dead Ahead, It’s Over, Harbor Lights, Georgia and many more. His album Silk Degrees is perfection.

      Absolutely correct. Boz was the catalyst for Toto forming as they met to back him on Silk Degrees. Great voice and great album.

    This was, in my opinion, one of the most successful artists to merge rock, pop, jazzy blues, and easy-listening styles. Most can't pull it off. This album is a MUST for collectors who like classic collections! I LOVE when you guys take me back to my teens and early 20s!!

  • @clrkwllms
    @clrkwllms 11 месяцев назад +22

    The groove you were enjoying was one variant of the beat that's called a "shuffle". It's based around eighth note triplets, where the middle note of each triplet group is omitted. In this case Jeff Pocaro (later drummer for Toto) is playing the shuffle pattern on the bass drum. There are shuffle variants where the shuffle pattern is played on the high-hat, ride or snare drum. You hear it a lot in blues, R&B and soul but you also hear shuffles in pop and rock.

  • @kallsop2
    @kallsop2 11 месяцев назад +27

    Boz was fantastic in the 70's and Silk Degrees spent 115 weeks on Billboards Top 100. The band members on the album were almost all the founding members of Toto, and if you look at them individually you will find that they were part of that great group of studio musicians that played on quite a list of albums for the biggest names back then. Quite a few played with Steely Dan, Boz played with Steve Miller and Duane Alman of the Alman Brothers.
    It's like going down a Rabbit hole looking through the musicians that played with Steely Dan as well.
    Steve Lukather of Toto once commented that during the 70's he might sit in on 25 sessions a week.

    Boz is a native of Ohio but he grew up in Dallas, Texas (Plano, TX specifically) Steve Miller also grew up in Dallas taught Boz how to play guitar. He was even a member of the Steve Miller band from 1967 to 1968. His other more popular big hit you should react to is "Lowdown"

Great stuff from The soulful mind of Boz.

    While not a member of Toto he is credited for helping the formation of Toto. “For his 1976 album, Silk Degrees, he hand-picked musicians after taking suggestions from several people. These musicians were David Paich, David Hungate, and Jeff Porcaro. The three were already friends and had frequently performed together on other albums, such as Steely Dan's Pretzel Logic. By going on tour with Scaggs, it solidified the prospect of starting a band. Columbia picked up on this talent by offering the new group a contract "without audition". Steve Porcaro described this as "a record deal thrown in our laps". Paich stated, "I'm not sure if Toto would have happened as soon, or quite the same way, without Silk Degrees". Their friendship has continued throughout the decades, shown by the varying collaborations and concerts performed together. Paich teamed up once more for Scaggs' 2001 album, Dig, contributing to 6 out of the 11 songs.

    Boz Skaggs is sneaky-good. A number of hits, but somehow still underrated. Give them all a listen. I'd put him in the same league / group as Steely Dan, or living in a space between Toto and Steely Dan.
    As for hits, there's "Jojo," which in theme is like "Lido Shuffle." "Lowdown" is tremendous, "Breakdown Dead Ahead," and for ballads he has "Look What You've Done to Me" and "We're All Alone." "What Can I Say" is from the disco era, but more soulful.

    Was definitely

    Recorded At Muscle Shoals
    With Duane Allman on Guitar

Also-- if you are aware of the movie 'The Wizard Of Oz', the band name is said exactly like Dorothy's dog 'Toto' in the move (not 'Toe-Toe' per se. The 2nd 'T' is a softer one/all one word/not separated). 🙂 Cheers, T

    I hope I’m the Joseph, my brain fails me but this is certainly in my wheelhouse to have recommended. Silk Degrees, the album this is from is in my perpetual Top 5 of all time. The right mood and it’s #1. Every song on it is 🔥. Don’t worry too much about the songs it’s the vibe! There are multiple vibes on the album. As for Toto, it’s all about lineage. We start at Steve Miller Band (Joker/Fly Like an Eagle). Steve taught Boz (you got the pronunciation) to play guitar and Boz joined his band. Later Boz spun off to do his own thing and in 1976 Silk Degrees was born. 3 members of Boz’s band including the cowriter of the songs left to form Toto. There ya go, if it was me Thank You! Lowdown should be next, even a better vibe with a bass line from OMG. Boz is still playing and singing!

    Boz sang soul and R&B from way back, even before he was famous. He really hit his stride in the mid to late 70s. Love his music.
