Boz Scaggs | Vanishing Point

from the album Dig
lyrics by Boz Scaggs and Dominique Gioia Music by Boz Scaggs and David Paich
I met him first out at the edge of nowhere Last chance oasis on the plains
The sky was threatening as he came up to me Said could you help me beat the rain?
Where does it take you this road you travel? He smiled the same place as yourself
To that point out there where all roads vanish Going to Vegas man where else?
Play it straight and play it true, my brother Cause you're miles from anywhere
As it happens in the world of shadows Time and distance vanish there
I was just another deadbeat loser there the last time I couldn't even read the signs
I've got this feeling and there's magic in the cards now I'm going back to take what's mine
Play it straight and play it true my brother Cause you're miles from anywhere
As it happens in the world of shadows Time and distance vanish there
What damned illusion in that neon lightning? A run of luck is in the air
Shining brighter than any flush of diamonds A magic carpet of despair
Play it straight and play it true my brother Cause you're miles from anywhere
As it happens in the world of shadows Time and distance vanish there

@Omarigolds.... Thanks for posting this video, great visuals, hadn't heard this one before. I was really into Boz in the early years kind of lost track the last 10 years or so, but recently " rediscovered " this amazing man, lucky me ! I had the supreme pleasure of seeing him in concert last month in Tulsa, Okla. I fell in love all over again! My son hooked me up with YouTube on his iPad , I have like 50 songs all by Boz, on my favorites list. I absolutely love this man. His voice is so beaut

@glendaraewilliams excellent that you can share his music with others - glad you enjoyed his concert and your son hooked you up with a YT account

@mtbpirates an essential album by Boz, Dig is amazing. Rumor has it there will be a new Boz release by October 2011, take care ;.)

In the early seventies I was desparate for music..and then the local college radio station played "Near You"..I saw Boz for the first time as an opening act in Boston and have seen many more concerts since. If he dos'nt get into the music hall of fame..I hope it falls down.

@plan9or10 lol - Boz totally deserves Hall of Fame status! ;.)

@tonytaxi100 musically when Dig was released the world was inundated with "pop tarts" receiving radio air time. Hoped Dig would be honored as Steely Dan's Two Against Nature, 'twas not to be. Take Care - peace ;.)
