Keyboardist David Paich, drummer Jeff Porcaro and bassist David Hungate gave these songs a sleek, swinging precision that still sounds immaculate, and Paich co-wrote several of them alongside Scaggs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Lowdown\" is the silky centerpiece, a cool, slinky groove that crossed over to dance floors and R\u0026amp;B radio alike. \"Lido Shuffle\" barrels along with boogie-woogie swagger, while \"What Can I Say\" glides on a breezy, light-footed bounce. Then \"We're All Alone\" closes the record with a ballad so lovely it was soon picked up by Rita Coolidge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is polished but never sterile, carried by Scaggs' smooth, soulful voice and a band clearly enjoying every bar it plays together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSilk Degrees remains the blueprint for yacht rock's finest moments, and a sure bet for any late-night listening session with the lights turned low.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57307761148209,"sku":"8719262044852","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Boz_Scaggs-Silk_Degrees_50th_Anniversary_Green.jpg?v=1793815950","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/boz-scaggs-silk-degrees-50th-anniversary-green","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
