I was turned on to Boz by the ‘Loan Me A Dime’ also. Still remains my favorite track by him, and I also posted it a while ago along with ‘Some Time’. Not fond of him jumping on to the ’standards’ bandwago, but his earlier output is better than most know. Nice post!

Thanks for the props, White. I have a Duane anthology on vinyl; might be the same one as you mention. I’ll have to dig it out. I recall some good stuff on it. Thanks, too, for dropping by AMD.

“Loan Me A Dime” was the first Boz I ever heard, on the first Duane Allman anthology. Time dithered on. And when “Silk Degrees” came out, I slowly began to collect Boz’ work. Some of it gives me chills, some just helps me chill. (Sorry!) All of it — even the much-maligned “Some Time” — is worth hearing. Nice post!
