Boz Scaggs: My Time [Columbia, 1972]
In search of the perfect makeout music for ex-hippies, Scaggs ditched his band of bohos halfway through and hied to Muscle Shoals, where the laid-back lie down with the overproduced as a regular thing. It may just be my imagination, but except for "Dinah Flo" and "Slowly in the Wind"--written by his bassist, David Brown, who's challenged Scaggs with cryptic lyrics on all of his Columbia albums--I think I like the boho stuff better.
