Product Information

Grammy Award-winning rock legend Boz Scaggs has put the finishing touches on his latest studio album, Memphis. The multi-platinum selling musician has signed with 429 Records, which will release the album on March 5. Showcasing both original songs and choice covers, Memphis was produced by Steve Jordan (John Mayer) and was recorded at Willie Mitchell's legendary Royal Studio in Memphis, where the late Mitchell recorded Al Green and other Hi Records artists. Joining Scaggs on Memphis are Willie Weeks (bass), Ray Parker Jr. (guitars), Spooner Oldham (keyboards), the Memphis Horns, Lester Snell (string arrangements) and Steve Jordan (drums).

William Royce "Boz" Scaggs began a long and storied career in 1965 with the release of his first solo recording Boz. Scaggs quickly developed into an iconic singer songwriter cutting his teeth playing with Steve Miller on several highly successful projects and honing his rock and R&B chops working with the likes of the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section and Duane Allman. Scaggs hit it big in 1976 achieving multi-platinum success with Silk Degrees and its follow ups. Scaggs continued on a lauded and multi-genre musical journey to the present day. He and his band continue to tour worldwide and Scaggs also performs alongside Donald Fagan and Michael McDonald in their band billed as The Dukes of September.

Raised in Texas with an abiding respect for a wide spectrum of American roots music, Scaggs has combined rock, jazz, R&B and blues to create a trademark sound. With an extensive and distinctive career that has spanned 30 years and many accolades, Scaggs continues to prove himself as one of music's most creative and original artists.

Rezensionen

,,Klasse Qualitätsware eines Mannes, der schon so lange im Geschäft ist, dass er genau weiß, wie man solch hochwertige Vorlagen präsentieren muss." (Good Times, April / Mai 2013)

,,Ganz schlicht, ganz altmodisch und ganz großartig interpretiert Boz Scaggs auf dem jüngsten Longplay Eigenkompositionen und handverlesene Fremdtitel aus den Genres Soul, R&B und Blues." (Stereo, April 2013)

,,Sein erstes Album nach zehnjähriger Pause zählt zur Kategorie ,,gut abgehangenes Spätwerk"." (Audio, April 2013)

,,Mit 68 Jahren hat Boz Scaggs nun in Memphis gearbeitet. Die zwölf Songs atmen den Soul-Blues-Markensound der Stadt und wurden fein an die Crooner-Stimme angepasst." (stereoplay, April 2013)
