Boz Scaggs is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist known for his smooth blend of rock, blues, soul, and jazz. He initially gained attention as a member of the Steve Miller Band before launching a successful solo career. Scaggs' style, marked by soulful vocals and versatile musicianship, saw its peak in the 1970s but remains influential.
Boz Scaggs' album Boz was his debut solo album, released in 1965. It reflects a folk and blues influence, a bit different from his later, more polished R&B sound. Recorded in Stockholm, Sweden, while he was touring Europe, Boz showcases Scaggs' early style, including covers and original tracks that highlight his expressive voice and early musical experimentation. This album provides a unique glimpse into Scaggs roots before he became widely known in the 1970s for hits like Silk Degrees
