@tomic601 re Boz - Dig, it’s not me, i have it, played a few times, pressing quality terrible, hope you have better luckSorry to hear that. This is the one I have Boz Scaggs – Dig Label:Gray Cat Records – GCV 4003 Format:2 x Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, 180 Country:USReleased: 2016. i think this version sounds great. It is very warm with some fat bass at times. It is my favorite Boz Album. I just love his vocals on it too.,but it doesn’t have pops and cracks like some new albums have ,and nit is pretty quiet too. The only problem some might have IMO is with some low freq rumble or noise if your table isn’t well isolated, cause their is some thick heavy bass. I* saw an interview with Boz a couple of years ago. somebody from LA was interviewing him ,but I cannot remember who.. He said he thought it was maybe their best album in his opinion. But he said it was doomed.. WHY ? SEE BELOW In the summer of 1998 Boz went on tour as the opening act for Stevie Nicks. After another hiatus from recording, his next album, Dig, got good reviews, although the CD was released on an unfortunate date – September 11, 2001 a couple of reviews below: Add Review2112adrian Jan 4, 2021 Wonderful pressing, very dynamic with very deep but controlled bass. Cleaning was needed, as per other comments, looks like pressing release agent , nothing serious. Once cleaned,very low noise pressing , but otherwise but with confidence and enjoy!

It has a full, warm, rich and expansive sound. when it arrived it needed to be wet cleaned. After cleaning it sounds great.

@grey9hound hey thanks for the info and recommendation of the Boz Scaggs album. I don’t have that one but will check it out. I’m also interested in his Jazz standards album from about that same time. Do you have that one and how does it sound on vinyl? Also really dig Kruangbin Nice Set this evening. |
Steve, Sounds like it was a fun show. I don’t think I was going to the shows of any popular groups during that time. Pretty out of the new music scene for a long while. I admire guys like you and Tim who seem to have kept pretty current over many years. I took a lot of years off from new music. Especially live shows. My wife hardly liked music at all. |
I don’t, but I do remember those guys. I was really into BS&T, Chase, Maynard Ferguson, and other music like theirs because I played trombone in High School Jazz Band. Need to get it. —————————————- Santana Eponymous (Santana III) MFSL 2013 I just got this at a very reasonable price and man what a fantastic thing this is. |
@slaw I really like the "Women and Children First " album. It is a little more towards the hard end, IMO. than their others. The others were probably more about making some thing Popular that would sell. @spiritofradio That is the only Boz Scaggs that I have on Vinyl. I also like the Memphis Album. I am not real sure about the Jazz Standard ones. His early stuff was to Pop for me. I watched a Youtube Video that I will highly recommend, especially if you like good ol’ straight up modern blues guitar (although very tastefully done by not overdoing it) with great tone , and Oh My the singer ,can really do the Blues WELL. Its like he was born for it. The Teskey Brothers "Live At Gum Gully". Now I can get into this kind of Blues ..playing and singing...OHH YEA!! Awesome. And another thing, I’ll bet you cannot guess where they are from without looking it up. I was surprised at that also. Speaking of Santana , I think them playing the " The Us Festival 1982: The US Generation Documentary (2017) " launched them to stardom. Another very interesting watch ,if you have never seen it. |
