Boz Scaggs is still one of my favorite artists of all time. His voice is as strong and smooth as it was over 30 years ago when I saw him in Ft. Worth! I hope he returns to Houston soon - I will buy front row tickets again!

It was an amazing show. When I read (after buying the tickets) that it was a tour featuring his new "Memphis" album, I thought that it would be his attempt at either Elvis or Booker T & the MG's. It was maybe the best concert I've ever seen, and I probably seen over 100 in my 50+ years. His new stuff was great and he did all of his hits. Great team of musicians with him, especially the young sax (and guitar) player. The African-American female took a bit to much time but I guess Boz needed a rest. Her set could have been a bit shorter, although she was very good. And last of all, the unpredictable air conditioning at the Ryman Auditorium was working. I guess it's fortunate that the concert wasn't in August. Overall a once-in-a-lifetime show.

This concert was teriffic. Close your eyes and you could imagine sitting in your living room listening to Boz.. His voice was clear, beautiful and very very soulfull. If you get to see one concert over the summer SEE THE BOZ, you will not be disappointed. When he sang "Somebody Loan Me a Dime" his style and voice as far as I'm concerned were spot on!

“The Apollo Theater is the closest thing I have to Church,” Boz Scaggs said after the jazzy “Runnin’ Blue” opening song at his concert Tuesday night. “This is Church”. But who goes to Church in 2013? About the same amount of people who made it to Scaggs misjudged set at the half empty Apollo, a cavernous hall when this quiet and it ate his show up and spit it back.

Pushing his fine new album Memphis, the former Middle Of The Road soul and disco man from the 1970s sold it hard but to little avail. The man is the Perry Como of rock and roll, in a slim barely 90 minute no opener concert, his muso demeanor was all calm shards but his 68 years had caught up with him and his lack of hits sunk him. Two covers early in the set didn’t much help either, both of them from a wake he had performed in and both felt it.

Since Scaggs won’t perform Steve Miller songs, he is left doling out “Lowdown”, “Lido Shuffle” and “What Can I Say” (the latter a big crossover disco hit in the UK) and nothing much else. Imagine if Scaggs had performed at BB Kings, where he belongs, the proximity of an audience and a full house might have woke him up, throw in “The Joker” and “Fly Like An Eagle” maybe that will give some songs he can dole out, keep “Rainy Day In Georgia” and “Corinna Corinna” and hold the set highlight, a galvanized “Big Sun” though putting it closer to the middle. My friend Sherry Davis added that he should have done “Slow dancer”.

In BB King’s that would have changed a bad set to a good set. With Boz’s fine voice leading the way and with just the surge of bodies in a full out club, it would have been fun. But the pace Tuesday night was deadly and thye songs echoed, thee sound system destroyed “Lido Shuffle” and even fave “What Can I Say” which is given a smart and sincere going over with the bass holding the hook, just as disco should, but never quite flies.

Early on I knew we were in trouble when a stand out from Memphis, Willy Deville’s excellent “Mixed Up Shook Up Girl” stalled on him. The band are being held back, everything felt it was being held back, and the lovely calypso bottom failed to hold. That was the third song and basically me and my friend Sherry both realized it wasn’t going to happen. The Memphis album is an unassuming and brilliantly sang collection in that granulated voice. A sleight of soul covers plus a couple of excellent originals. There is no reason I can think of for this to fail to ignite on stage.

Three of the four covers were bad ideas. “Thank You Falletin Me Be Mice Elf Again” was a dreary disaster and “Time” was sung by his back up singer and still didn’t go far enough. Nothing quite happened right. Boz is an old timer and I am assuming he got creamed by a half empty Apollo and a wonky mic and sometimes it is hard to excite in those circumstances. And I really enjoyed the album (less now of course) and recommend it but this was not a good evening. Next time a smaller venue.

This was a great concert. Boz was clearly touched by his time @ Apollo. He said "this is as close to church as I get.". Then he corrected himself, "This is church."

After a slow and mellow start, Boz got the crowd on it's feet with a cover of Sly Stone's Thank You (Falettin me mice elf). No one sat down fir the second half of the show.

Attended many of his concerts and this is the first time I was disappointed. Boz did not mix all the old with the new and ran out of time to play 3 favorites. He had a intro band play about 30 minutes before his band. They were ok but not what I paid for.
When it was time for Boz Scaggs to come on stage, it was a 45 minute wait. I would not recommend this tour, especially for the price. It seemed like he was pushing the cd for his new music.

Boz Scaggs was quite the smooth operator. His voice was a great now as he was back in the 70's. His band was tight and played together like a well- tuned car. I liked that Boz Scaggs played alot of different varieties of songs, current to older tunes I never heard before.

Boz was good, especially the new songs, but the Silk Degrees era stuff sounds old and tired (I'm sure he's tired of doing it). Loan Me A Dime was the highlight, as expected. The opening act was poor quality and unannounced (that was annoying); they basically just appeared to keep Boz from having to play a full 2 hour show.
