"Lowdown" Boz Scaggs Columbia 10367 June 1976 * #3 on Billboard Charts * William "Boz" Scaggs achieved solo stardom in 1976 with the elegant, sophisticated, urban, blue-eyed soul of his sixth album, "Silk Degrees." * A 5000000 seller, "Silk Degrees" first charted on March 20, 1976, and spawned three Top 40 hits: "Lowdown" (#3), "Lido Shuffle" (#11), and "It's Over (#38).

Boz Scaggs - Sierra After learning guitar at the age of 12, Boz Scaggs met Steve Miller at St. Mark's School of Texas in Dallas. In 1959, he became the vocalist for Miller's band, The Marksmen.

He travelled to Sweden as a solo performer, and recorded his solo debut album, Boz in 1965, which was not a commercial success and did a brief stint with the band The Other Side with fellow American Jack Downing and Brit Mac MacLeod. Returning to the US, Scaggs promptly headed for the booming psychedelic music center of San Francisco in 1967. Linking up with Steve Miller again, he appeared on the Steve Miller Band's first two albums Children of the Future and Sailor, which received good reviews from music critics. After being spotted by Rolling Stone publisher Jann Wenner, Scaggs secured a solo contract with Atlantic Records in 1968.
