Boz Scaggs - Speak Low
- Boz Scaggs utilizes his talents in a different way this time around on his 17th studio album that is Speak Low. He comes from a more blues and rhythm background, but uses his voice in a very sensual way that is more adventurous. It stirs the pot of emotions round and round as Speak Low remains very low key. They’re mellow and very somber as the jazzy vocals are layered upon emotions and have flickering embers that follow his guided voice. Boz Scaggs showcases his voice as it provides the highlights of the album in a surprising turn from his past records.

Women might feel woozy as they could describe is simply sexy and just very romantic that can get you in the mood with your significant other. The tunes and savvy voice to go along with it fit his customized image. The tempos seem to follow a moderately slow course, but it never falters into phases of depression as it is quite lively and can be a soundtrack to your life. Boz solidifies himself as an artist with true vision as his smooth voice forms a flirting haze around us.

This is jazz that has depth and forms an intimacy with the listener. Speak Low is a genuine treasure that has a wondrous smooth style that we can all appreciate. The songs are subtly spellbinding and coil around us in a very visceral way. Boz Scaggs has a relaxed grasp around us as he shimmies his way around and we look on with praise. Speak Low is new and freshly avid compositions that teeter on the brink of that brash showboating type, but never gets full of itself as it ultimately falls into our lap with smoothly cool smile.
