The Essential Boz Scaggs collects 32 key tracks - the soundtrack of a life's journey so far by a sophisticated soul singer nonpareil. Guest appearances by: Booker T. & The M.G.'s, Michael McDonald, Phoebe Snow, Donald Fagen and others.
Boz Scaggs melds substance and style with a smoothness that no one else can match. His Southern roots fuse with a West Coast sensibility to create thoughtful, provocative soul, rock and pop that has kept listeners tuned in for more than four decades!
He is one of the world's most cherished contemporary artists. He has covered some diverse territory to date: from burning electric blues to big-band hippie-rock; from blue-eyed soul through cool disco; from L.A. Studio slickness to stripped-down roots-R&B.
