Different Shades of Blue
Reviews
"I know Joe enjoys remaking old blues classics, but I think this album continues to show he is one of the great modern blues writers, along with Warren Haynes."
"Joe is the best. Reese's style works on this album as it did at the Radio City concert."
"I particularity like the way Joe embraces past, present and future, blending familiar influences and making it all somehow his own."
"While his early CDs seemed to focus on electric blues, he is evolving into more of a rocker with a distinct psychadelic side. One thing about this CD, as with nearly all of Joe's works: what is recorded is nothing like it will be when he plays them live. But, the really good news is that the recordings show great potential for live performances where he will have the audience climbing the walls."
"Another great record from Joe."
"Good record."
"On this record, you hear a more controlled voice and better sounding lower register."
"If you know Joe, there's little more you need to know."

Best Live Recordings

Greatest Hits Live
Reviews
"Only Boz is Boz, like only Daryl is Daryl ."
"Boz has always been a great singer song writer."
"Usually I'm skeptical of live greatest hits albums, but Boz Scaggs Greatest Hits Live offers an intriguing look at the career of a successful artist who gained a larger audience by altering his approach without losing his integrity."
"outstanding cd came on time and also played great."
"Although I am a real fan and may be biased, I truly believe this is his best CD, not only because he's in such good voice, but because the band that backs him is unbelievable."
"If you love Boz Scaggs like I do, this is a must for your collection."
"My only hesitation is that I realize I enjoy the polished rich sounds coming from studio musicans, and not the improvised singing (from the back up singers) or sounds of the audience in the background."
