Real music, love Boz Skaggs, and the best of the best musicians and singers were used, real talent putting his collaboration together. I listen to music every single day, my life is heavily infuenced by music. I have joy and I am grateful to have lived through a generation or two, some of the 3rd generation that produced such joy and happiness on my part.I know next to little, music of the present generation, every now and then a riff will catch my ear, not very often. I hope the younger people feel this way about their generational music to love as they journey through life.

This is and was a incredible song, love the memories that go with it

[@billbarone5033]

The musicianship, the timing, vocals, each one playing their part and it all coming together so beautifully...BRAVO!!!

[@granthurlburt4062]

I saw the Dan outside of Scranton in the mid-2000's. Same perfection. The band was like one huge instrument in perfect tune. With Mike McDonald. After 3 sold-out shows in NYC, the scranton venue was half-full!

[@paulocarvalho5410]

Exatamente.

[@terryromero5191]

THAT'S how you do smooth jazz!!!

[@WilliamTheMovieFan]

Wow! Boz still sounds the same, and can hit those high notes!

[@richardbrucemusic]

Boz absolutely still has the voice, in the original key, hitting all the high notes. And his ad lib note choices are second only to perhaps Daryl Hall. Legendary, classic, never to be repeated singer - that is Boz Scaggs.

[@Derfunkmeister]

When the Girls started to go Uhh!! I got Goosebumps. simply fantastic and that flute. It goes to show what music can do when multiple instruments and people are involved. something the record companies have forgotten and doesn't support anymore and that's so sad.

[@ianprest3850]

Yeah

[@jameslandis]

Yeah...all good...old school 4 sure

[@rubenzamorano5194]

Hoy las compañias aceptan solo lacra pues, le interesa solo el dinero no asi, la calidad.

[@heathergay5508]

Let’s talk about the flute player. Fantastic!

[@RaptorGN07]

c'mon man this is just too much, simply great music by legends. It doesn't get better than this.

[@Vannie-f1y]

Rocky Martin huh James dean still alive🤔

[@stephencarlsbad]

For real!

[@ronhatcher7734]

im tellin ya!!!

[@candysantillo3325]

Rocky Martin well said!

[@richardkelly5428]

Rocky Martin one row off the front. Was at WOODSTOCK. Still the best contemporary show I have ever enjoyed

[@timthompson8297]

This recording is about as close to original studio quality as I can remember. Excellent

[@mary_mildred]

It's prolly better.

[@Roxanambaresearch]

I think it is better... like good bourbon.

[@COACHINHBALL]

What a great version of a great song

[@andyinoregon]

Good golly, the years haven't laid a glove on Boz Scaggs' voice!

[@charliehecht8401]

Agreed! Nor has it hurt Michael McDonald's nor Donald Fagen's voice either!

[@jacobblackburn1379]

@@charliehecht8401 I have to disagree with you about Donald Fagen but everyone else sounds great still

[@joe-vz6hx]

seconded, sadly Fagen's voice is a shell of what it was

[@lesheathjr4494]

Boz ain't lost his ability to make that guitar sing either!

[@williamwallace8945]

Fantastic voice still!

[@leighmackay7486]

I listen to this song 44 years after its release and it still sounds fresh. I prefer music videos that let us see the musicians in action heightening my appreciation for their talents. This video exemplifies that.

[@jamesscott1189]

luv the Beatles in the '60s. Today at 80, I'll take Boz, Steely Dan.

[@stephenw3]

Used to play Boz over and over again when Silk Degrees hit the charts way back when (??) Still got the vinyl - one of a few I kept. Always love it when the classic radio stations play him. Just stumbled onto this video and it has renewed my appreciation. What a band - what a voice - you haven't changed at all Boz! THE smoothest music ever!!! I'll be searching for more Boz videos!!

[@jeffsharp9861]

The drummer is killin' this...awesome !

[@Heartsong62]

Toto's now drummer! Shannon Forrest.

[@Bobkings]

original drummer is jeff porcaro... ! listen the original version and you will see the huge difference

[@quickdrawmcgraw4110]

Shannon Forest is a great drummer. Nobody can ever fill Jeff Porcaro's shoes, but this guy isn't trying to: he is clearly a beast in his own right and he deserves every respect.

[@keithgeorge9574]

This is probably the nearest performance that you can get to perfection. If there is such a thing?

[@amyepstein4868]

Yes. There is musical perfection. We are here....

[@lee48lee68]

It IS perfection.

[@jessewilson3142]

Ready Freddie "forget me nots" Washington holding it down masterfully on bass.

[@BassmanII]

With current Toto drummer Shannon Forrest holding down the groove. Can't get better than that.

[@fw1421]

Brings me back to the late 70’s. I loved Boz’s work. Amazing singer,song writer. I have this video. Boz,Michael Macdonald,Donald Fagan. Couldn’t have put together 3 better musicians.

[@jeffreyblack9850]

I agree with alot of what you people have been saying. The musicianship is second to none and Boz Scaggs sounds like he is 33 and not 73. Terrific stuff.

[@yvesdevriendt928]

Age is not a limiting factor in music, on the contrary…

[@jeffreyblack9850]

@@yvesdevriendt928 false...age does effect the quality of their work, most of it in a negative manner. Some of them can endure for a long time at a high level some cant...JMO, of course my friend.

[@y.u.doodat9133]

Jeffrey Black, this marvelous performance was in ‘12. That’s 7 years ago. So he would have been 67 here. Still! The voice of one still in his prime. Must be taking great care of himself!

[@ripleystamio7839]

73.!! I'm having two of what he's having then.....looking and sounding brilliant

[@willritter4076]

I'd be honored if some late 70s/early 80s fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of WHAT A FOOL BELIEVES by Michael McDonald, JOSIE by Steely Dan, and WE'RE ALL ALONE by Boz Scaggs on my YT channel in tribute to the masters of groove. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and keep on grooving.
