Lyrics:
Look out behind you
Jojo's got his gun
He wouldn't mean to
But you know he likes his fun
Jojo dig those spinning lights
Way out games and dizzy heights
Below him
Jojo dig those Broadway nights
And flashy lines
You know him
He got you covered
You'll know it right out front
Hey, fifty dollars
He'll get you all you want
Ever so rarely, that man in a billion is born
Gentle and soft but who'd just as soon off you
For looking the wrong way as not
Go Jo
His baby stays high
Got to keep her sweet
He keeps her just right
Keeps her on the street
Say, what do you think
Of gentlemen wearing mink?
Gentle and soft
But who'd just as soon off you as not
Go Jo

I’m Japanese!!
But I love this music. Music has no borders!!
Nor sea routes, especially if you live on an island nation
Music has no borders.
🙂
I agree 100% ! I'm living in France and I listen Japanese music as DJ Kawasaki, Jazztronik,Lena Fuji, Cargo etc etc ! No borders ! Greetings from France.
@@たたた-e5h Been to Japan. Loved it and everyone I had the honor to meet!
60s, 70s were the best music genre of all time, and the genre that is perpetuated today by all the rappers. All their beats are based on music like this.
Totz! I never knew what BG meant, back then...
Blue Eyed Soul at its finest.
Gorgeous
Good🤪
I’m 43 years old. When I was a child my mom would play earth, wind and fire. Anita baker, Michael mcdonald, simply red, etc. I went to visit my mom yesterday , she is 80 years old. She was playing this song ……such fun memories she said with a giggle.
That’s a nice story thanks for sharing
God bless her ❤😀🙏
YOU have an Awesome mom with SUPERB MUSICAL taste ! I was sweet 16 the great summer of 80 . This transports me big time! One of the greatest songs I ever 💕 heard.. Say hello to your mom
from a " fellow" 🎶 music lover who also ADORES this song. I bet ur mom also has some great stories that she equates this song with; I do . Time to play it again now. ! PEACE to yr cool 😎 mom !🌜✨️🌠 💗 🩵 🌝 ✌ ✨️✨️🌙
Your mother has brilliant taste in music!
Your mom has great taste! I haven't thought or heard an Anita Baker song in a long time.
19 years old here glad this song plays every once in a while at work
My uncle Lenny is killing it on the Congas and my aunt Paulette is killing the vocals
You're killing us with your lies. Ugh. 🤢
I swear he hired angels to sing backup with him🕊
Oh, big time. His background singers for his live concert aways back are awesome
ruclips.net/video/6u9vPkVr7CU/видео.htmlfeature=shared
Yes…I wonder who they are.
Sharon Redd, Charlotte Crossley.
Love Bogg Skaggs, I am 73 years old this music was in my time!!
mine too a t 69 here
Me too!
Io ho 60 anni e sentire brani come questo mi viene da chiedermi perché non c'è piu nessuno che suona così? Grandi artisti per
I grandi anni 70
right on now, baby now!
72 years in two weeks and this still sounds as fresh as it was when it first came out.
June 8, 2024
Happy Birthday, sir!
80 yrs old today and still as relevant as ever. I am lucky to be alive in your lifetime. Thank you for the music.
Happy birthday
80 year old legend ❤❤❤
Long live Boz
Oh hell yes, I think he saved my life from 80's hormones
Better yet, long live the young Boz🎉🎉🎉. Happy birthday!
Always been a boz scaggs fan. That man made great music. I'm 58 years old and still enjoy it.
I was 25 and worked nights and this song played often. Never grows old. Blessings!
I'm 87 and still love his rendition of JO JO!!
It's been a year with this comment you are my age now 59
Love Boz Scaggs, he has such a unique voice. His voice is still great today, he didn’t lose a thing with age
I am going to see Boz in concert on the 27th of May! I’m telling everyone! Long live The Boz!🎉❤
@@donnavorbach215 you lucky dog congrats have a awesome time!!
Goin to see Boz in Charleston SC June 7th...Can't wait!!
Seeing him in SF this summer 2023💜💜💜💜💜💜
Aww. I missed him when he was here in Chicago a few ago.
The sisters doing the backup singing they are killing it
I've been fb friends with the one, in the middle, for three years. One of the original Ikettes, sang with more than 300 major artists. Splendid lady, with a great sense of humor.
Yaaaaassssss!
Hey Boz I love singing your song Jo Jo at kaeoka
My aunt Paulette in the red shirt is one of the back up singers and my uncle which is her husband is playing the Congas. RIP aunt Paulette.
@1:11, 1:56 -- Looks like Boz is showing his appreciation.
*We don't look for old songs, we look* *for the memories they carry.*
*True classics never goes out of style*
yes but both for sure!
yes-you are correct-Jo Jo nearly killed me 50 years ago-a very distant memory- I used to watch Boz come into Saloon in north beach San Fran-just me the bartender and Mr Scaggs-two a clock in the afternoon for a year- 70 now- Life is great-taken by an incredible man 43 years ago, two kids, 4 grandkids- jo jo is a very distant memory- I do social work-work with Ladies of the night- they deserve better-shout out to everyone out there- great music-have an incredible day y'all
This Dude has a lot of Soul in Him..😎
Guy on piano at 23 seconds in looks like he did a hot rail before the shoot😂
Boz seems like the kind of man that nothing bothers him. There's something so 'cool' about that.
So glad I grew up with this music. Timeless and classic.
Yes, simply good music!
I grew up to Boz in the 70’s To now. Still listening to Boz.
Me too!
Love Boz,, I love ❤️ all his music. He is a legend of his time . Classicwith a “class act”.
So did I
Talk about a song that captures a mood...and any song with a sax is boss.
Boys and Girls, these are called musicians and they are playing what we call music. RIP Carlos and Mike
@@joetumolo7550 Good one 👍
Joe, you are SO right!
💯🤣
We had the best of the best. Clubs, music, movies, imagination, Sunday roasts at Grandma's house, poker nights, 8mm home movies, charades, family, bottled peaches, love xxxxxxxx
This was a HIT in Black Clubs! Hell, Black People LOVE Boz Scaggs!!
That’s awesome!
He, Hall & Oates, had soul in them.
Black people thought Boz Scaggs was Black, OK!
@@scottgrimes1287Don't forget Bobby Caldwell. Rest in paradise Bobby 💔🙏💔
He had such a unique voice and style I love his music. I am 61 years old and learning how to play the ukulele and guitar and to my surprise doing well at it. Goes to prove you're never to old to learn. Rock On People .
Boz was one of the most underated musicians if his time..He had so many great songs ..JoJo is one of my Favorites..
john hunt
john hunt l see. l never heard this and the first note grabbed me just like Low Down did in 73 or 74, :)
This is 2016, don't scare us like that. Just checked. Boz is still alive.
He's still performing! I'm seeing him at the end of this month in Florida! I can't wait!
'75?
Bozz the sharpest & smoothest of all stray cats in the 70s,.
Fuck, we will never have music like this again. Well good thing we have RUclips.👍
When you are born in de fifties you dit grow up in the best time til now and the future. It wont be better
That's why the elite called it the classics and oldies.. they had to start putting out all that satanic garbage...
grew up in the 60s/70s i know the best and ony the best music!!
Tennek Trey I agree
second that :)
Hard to believe he's 80 and still bringing it!
Still slaps in 2024. Keep strapped.
SLAPS!!!!
Baby now!
SLAPS!!!!
Take some Boz, mix in some later Steely Dan and you've got yourself a musical feast. Smooth.
TITS!
Add some later Todd Rundgren too....such as his tune "Sweet"... luscious...
Your right there.... Steely Dan. Every song they did were hits that will and do stand against time.
Daryl New Zealand
Haha I like it! Good taste in music!😁👍
Someones watching breaking bad
20台初め JoJo大好きだった。今 聴いても素敵だ。
This song is a damn funky jazzy masterpiece.
The most awesome Ray Parker Jr. is playing the shimmery rhythm guitar.
For real?
@@Jgeneraledger23 Yeah For real.
Damn You got me with that one and I can even hear his playing style
BOZ was the freakin man!!!!!!
Man I could listen to this sing over and over everyday. Thank you Boz.
I feel the exact same way. One of the best songs (and Video) ever!!
Who is the keyboard player in JoJo Live? He has white shoes and stripe multi-color shirt?
Boz sings “Look out behind you, JoJo has his gun.... “ as Boz dances and sings behind Piano Player. Pianist looks up at Boz and smiles and keeps playing.
Who is this Dude????
Love pianist. Love Boz too.
Boz is wearing white/cream color suit with red-orange shirt.
ashagon you can’t beat him people, smooth soul my friends, the best all round any day!!
Anyone know the name of the pianist??
Beverly McNamara , David Paich?
Boz Scaggs one of the best, old school performers.
U ARE RIGHT ON ❕❕❕‼BOZ SCAGGS IS UNIQUE ..HAS ALWAYS BEEN ..YA KNOW ITS THEM ..AND NOONE ELSE THE INSTANT IT COMES ON ..AND PHENOMONAL MUSIC VOICES LYRICS!!! WHAT MORE CAN U ASK FOR ? ME ..NOTHIN THEY ARE STAND OUTS!!🌜🌠🌌🌃🌉🌝🌕🌛⭐🌙
@Hiccum Blurpaedius What are you talking about, a loyalist to what?
What do you mean old school? Ability doesn't get lost with age. He still perform's today.
The DIRTY LOW DOWN
It is so true: the singers and musicians of today cannot compare to the music of this era! I absolutely LOVE the saxophone and brass in this song. Boz just oozes with CLASS!!!😍😍😍
YES!!!!!!😎
This man has so much soul blues , & class ! 70's best decade of creative talented true singers !
👏🙋♂️🍷
I actually remember the 80's, when our parents said that shit about this music, too.
and....this band went on to make up most of Toto, what talent!
I agree
Just look how Bozz is interacting with the backup singers. Their having a GREAT time making music together!
Tal CUAL..👍
@@jorgearturomontoyaz9600 numero uno
That's for the clip 😉
Noticed that this is Toto performing with him?
Boz and David Paich were joint songwriters on much of his output, and if it hadn't been for Silk Degrees (on which Toto's members all played) maybe Toto would never have materialised.......which would have been an absolute tragedy of mega proportions as they remain the greatest ensemble of talented musicians to ever walk on a stage (in my humble opinion of course)!
66 and HAS to groove to this!
THE SEVENTIES OLDIES MUSIC WAS THE BEST MUSIC COMPARED TO TODAY'S MUSIC THAT'S Played ON THE RADIO Facts ❤❤❤❤❤
Jojo was from 1980 but your statement is true nonetheless.
Very sadly I miss truly my beloved year & want to go back to 1980 & before, best times and carefree innocent life great again
I love this song. My boyfriend & I listened to this song 44 years ago. Everytime I hear this song it reminds me of him. Sadly he died of cancer at a very young age.
Sorry for your loss, but may the good memories stay alive in you.
I'm 65, and I play this for my 9 year old granddaughter. She just seems dumbfounded that old people had such kool music.
speak for yourself. You are only as old as you feel.
The 70s were the best time for timeless music it's never get old ,,,,,,,,,
My son (around 12 at the time) quickly grew to love some Boz but also "Baby Come Back"/Player, "You'll Never Find/Rawls, and "Inside Out"/BeeGees.
Awesome I love turning people onto good music even songs about hookers and drugs
Thomas Rice
You're not old, l am 67 and feel like 37 and feel like I still have so much to do.
As my friend would say don't put yourself down rather put yourself up high man🤓
Only Boz, David Foster, and Toto could make a song about a murderous pimp sound so cool.
David Foster, not on my mix.
No David Foster. Boz, Toto yes, David Foster no
David Foster, no. He's a narcissist. Bot, Toto, yes indeed.
According to Wikipedia, this song was co-written by Boz, David Lasley, and David Foster. David Lasley sang backup with James Taylor for many years before his death in 2021.
David Foster, can't stand him.
Boz Scaggs is an outstanding jazz musician. I enjoy his collection with every opportunity to listen intently. JoJo is definitely a classic
🙂🤪
Lido, Blackie and Jojo... what a cast of characters!
So sad that unless kids today have parents or someone else to introduce them to this coolness, they will never hear such great music.
look how long it took them to find that Fleetwood Mac song - skateboard & cranberry juice?
That’s very ture
Yes
the algorithm works wonders my friend
My parents played this all over the house when I was a toddler! Now I’m play them with my friends, and they’re like, “Damn, how you know all these old jams?” My parents!
IN the 70s, music was becoming free of racial boundaries. Whomever sang a good song no matter genre, was appreciated, accepted and cheered, if they did it right. Boz Scaggs was at the right place at the time on his record contract for a white boy singing like a soul brother!
Entièrement d’accord 👍
Exactly. Music is truly a universal language.
Just like when I worked in a factory in the seventies it seemed as though all black and white people got along very well compared to today. 80% of the music I grew up with was black music and I am white. I miss those days so badly and I miss that job I used to have.
I have the silk Degrees Album from back in the day. So good
Well said. And I got another guy for you, sure you know........Gino Vanelli......Hell they were on Soul Train. Ahead of his time really. And the drummers he had in that band. Mark Craney, RIP left us way too soon. Gram Lear. Every one before and after those guys were first class musicians, the whole band. He was playing likeable fusion music that was marketable and still quality musicianship
This song JoJo still sounds good today 10/8/2024 (I'm 61) . Love me some Boz Scaggs 💙 .
How could you not????? ❤️
Well said!!! ❤
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
One of the best songs of 1980..great fusion of disco, jazz and yacht rock rhythms
This is pure gold.
Boz Scaggs is in a league of his own. His music oozes CLASS, from Lowdon, to this, . . .
Amen
Damn right! A totally underrated talent! Wow!
Long before "Lowdown".
real musicians - with real instruments
From Toto
That's right!!!!😎🎸🎵🎶
This is Carlos Vega on drums...and Randy Kerber on piano...I think they were touring with Boz at the time. Jeff P. was on the album.
These days of music mastery are long gone....😔
With real imagination. The song takes you into Jojo's life as you can envision it as if you were there. Now that's creativity at its best!
Saw him tonight in concert. He was great. Didn't know this was one of his hits too. He was so good. Not many people worth going to see these days. Boz is the man 11/22/2019 and he's still got it!!
Jo Jo your life is calling . Movie starring Richard Pryer about his sad life. This song was a part of that and about him Bozz is the man
This masterpiece comes from the era when performers actually made music 🎶 and art. 😊
Real talent = Real Music 🙏🏽🙌🏽
Great memories from the Summer of 1980!
I know what you mean. ...Jo Jo ! NC
i was only going on 8 i love this year in music rollerskating when i was a kid i love that song from Urban Cowboy
16 in 1980. Boz played on a popular Top 40 in Knoxville, WOKI..Saw him the first time in 2014. Same ole Boz....
Summer 1980: this song, Breakdown Dead Head, and Look What You’ve Done.
Ian Sampson great memories indeed!
I have loved Boz's music since 1976! I finally saw him in concert a few years back. I love his music and his voice is outta this world!! He is my favorite musician!
Me too in 2014. Jojo one of my favorite in 1980.
Right you are Selina, I grew up listening to Bozz Scaggs and it brings back awful great memories, and some bad ones too. But it's all good :-)
1980
1989. All his music. His talent still exists. Will be timeless
I love this video, reminds me of being 24 again , pretty classy 😊 How fortunate to be young during this time
@bozscaggsmusic.. ty 😊
CLASS!!!!! Never will we see this music or artists of this caliber again. Thank you, Mr Scaggs.
Boz Scaggs is the ultimate cool guy. His music is outstanding. Still listening to him since 1970's. Fantastic performer.
We need more adult music like this, sophisticated and groovin’
Bozz nailed it with this song as he's done with all of them. Loved how the groups back then dressed and took pride in their appearance.
I have been listening to Boz since the 70’s and he is one of the best!!!
me too!
My Dad introduced me to Boz Scaggs. I remember the album cover where he’s wearing the dark pink blazer. I was 10 in 1976. I grew up with the best music of the Bay Area. I never realized how much him and SRV look alike. listening to this music brings back great memories of my youth. I was thinking about it the other day that people in my age group saw some of the fastest shifts in society through technology. I literally went from being the youngest kid of 5, having to get up and adjust the TV😂 to today. The weird fact that Back to the Future has pretty much happened, no pun intended, minus the flying car and time travel. 🙄❤️
Brother is having so much fun in this video 😄👍🏾
God I miss the 70's before the world went nuts and we actually had MUSIC, not the trash we have today.
Ahead of his time. Way to rock it. A true legend!’
so far ahead of his time it still hasn't come!
Maybe today’s singers should Go Back in Time!???
Lowdown, Jo Jo, Look what you’ve done to me, Lido Shuffle........... Buz Scaggs = Brilliant music
It’s taken me until now to hear this gem after it randomly came up on a RUclips playlist. Better late than never
Es una obra de arte
I was 5 years old when my father started playing this song. I just recently rediscovered it and I can’t believe how AWESOME it is! From the musicians, to the background singers to Boz’s whole DELIVERY…this song can’t miss!
I am a qualified lesbian
Coolest man on two feet and that voice would melt any iceberg.
And Chris Rea
Very underrated singer, songwriter and musician of the mid to late 70s and early 80s. Thanks Boz for making my high school years and my early days in the military so enjoyable with some great jams. You're the best.
He’s the epitome of cool.
just another wigger.
It was like had actor Steve McQueen had a Music Career.
I saw Boz in concert in Greenville SC in 2016. BEST concert i have EVER been to. Great song!!
I LOVE this song. Boz's voice is ssooo smooth!
"Say, what do say about gentlemen wearing mink?" - One the greatest lines in music history.
This is an example of what coolness is.
I was a young American newlywed in Denmark in 1977 and had this album. I played it incessantly. Boz was the best.
@@DarcieGlam That's amazing considering this album didn't come out until 1980, but I know you're talking about Silk Degrees.
’79年、二十歳でした。この年は名曲が多かったですよね。この曲は’79年の中でもベスト3に入るマイフェイバレットソングです。
Mike P. siempre sonriendo, gran canción de Bob, suena mucho a Georgy Porgy.
Another fave Boz song. He has a rhythm that can only be described through his music. There are no words. Beloved 70's style flowing over into the 80's. 😇
So true
literally rhythm can only be described by music im pretty sure thats implied in the definition of rhythm
Love The Boz
That Boz! He rocked back then & he still rocks!
2023 - Boz still has it!❤️💕
Coolest and smoothest dude
Boz Scaggs
This man is quality music! Every song is jut right. My first "arena" concert was the Eagles, 73 or 74. Opening band was Boz Scaggs. None of my friends were interested, we settled mid-way back from the stage. I heard something good, went down front and boogied through the whole set! Only time I saw him, but I started buying the LP's!
Tremendous groove. Just really slick.
That is some serious 2am Vegas, the Strip, Saturday night, a dark smoky lounge, a beautiful woman slow dance music. Smoother than the finest bourbon.
Nailed it brother!!!!
I love the sound of that
People tried to tell me he was Disco...Smack!! Smooth jazzy is Boz's style!
He couldn't had been further from disco.
@@kevinhorsley8822 He had some cross over disco success. A lot of artists did in the 70s.
He’s classic soul. Jazz, funk, rock, he has his own fantastic style. Incomparable.
@@habyss Love that dancibility!
fUCK that. R&B.
This song is one of Boz's best ever it is sad more young people dont have a chance to hear this awesome music the sax is off the charts just draws you in and takes you incredible
We saw him in Atlanta last year. He still rocks. A GREAT concert!!
日本から。
今57歳だけど19歳の時にめちゃくちゃ聴いてました。
山下達郎とboz scaggs それから 渡辺香津美。

They need to bring this music back. America is missing some good music
very good music! i wsa18 then it was so fun dancing to this music!
Just 😎 and he is a good singer.
It's not often anymore you get to hear an ass kicking sax solo!!!
It is true !!
musical class. sure miss the 60's, 70's, and 80's..everything went down hell after that.
All i can say is thank god I was born in '64 and EXPERIENCED real music. ...... Fantastic song and voice 🐾🐕🐶
Me too
Best Ever!!!😊😊😊😊😊
A killer song from the 70's about a cool bad ass pimp. The street life will get you every time.
@Boz Scaggs ♪ North Carolina but I live currently in Philadelphia.
Okay.
I’m loving this so
Much. I’m 69 and this was popular in my prime. ❤
This tune is still badass after all these years
Jammin' to this while working from home on an sunny day. Glad my family introduced me to great music growing up in the 80s. Kids today are missing out.
My favorite Boz Scaggs hit! '80 Look What You've Done To Me." 70s as well. Lido Shuffle '77 / Lowdown '76/
timeless
