hell yeah i know how cool it is...been listening to this for years, since his time with steve miller band...tho i got old, this work never does...boz, grayson hugh and chris rea...3 of the best musicians in the business...thanks for the post brother
i saw him at the puyallup fair in september of 2011. he was fantastic he had a full band plus 2 backup singers, one being monique. she did a solo and brought the crowd to their feet!!!!
Just saw Boz at Humphrey's in San Diego. He played this song and it took my breath away! Absolutely brilliant. Made me want to jump in the car and make that lonely drive to Texas, listening to this all the way!
ytdaedalus, thank you for replying, but my computer renders the 4th, 5th and 6th characters of the name as a strange symbol with the numbers 00 and 05 inside a box. Are you using a non-UK or -US computer keyboard? I'd still love to know who the singer is!
fantastic song - brilliant lyrics - heard it on the radio whilst driving home from a gig and had to pull over to hear who it was. Always loved Boz Scaggs. Amazingly the other guitarist in my band did exactly the same thing when he heard it. We both turned up at the next gig playing the song!!!
@applejackmusic Well Jack I love Elvin Bishop no doubt but this song,,,," first taste of the moon" I been the moon ;) anyway it hit me like a train ..I'd love to hear you on the blues harp..
actually what the lyrics say there is 'first taste of the border'. if you can get a copy of the Dig CD, the one with the deluxe booklike binding, all the lyrics are in there for each song. best regards!
@applejackmusic : Great song! Something be really proud of... hope you keep 'em coming and put them up on YouTube. FANTASTIC all the way around. Catherine Todd
Many thanks for posting - this is one of those tracks that, if you're out driving, makes you just want to pull over and listen hard. A real story-teller and fantastic musician.
@kajunmoon Many thanks to you for finding the time to reply - oh, and I'll join the others congratulating you on a brilliant piece of music! Now to find some other stuff that Ms Dal Bello has recorded... :-D
@PlanetTharg you are very welcome,but it's a guess on my part that it is the vocals of Lisa Dal Bello,she did do alot of back up vocals for him...If you find out differernt please le me know .I would love to know too:D
Brilliant song about addiction......Boz can tell a story like a motherf@#$%^&.

I saw him at the American Theater at Lancaster, Pa. One of the best concerts I ever saw. Also saw him perform in NJ with Fagen and McDonald.

@PlanetTharg My best guess is the beautiful vocals of Lisa Dal Bello,she did most of the back up vocals for him I believe.

Saw him in El Paso/Plaza Theatre last night. Awesome show. Awesome team. Voice is as good as when I first heard him in the 70s.
