Jude Warne is a rock biographer and music columnist. Jude joined the show a few years back to discuss her book America the Band - An Authorized Biography - an episode I highly recommend. Now she’s back with a new book, Lowdown: The Music of Boz Scaggs.

​If you're a Boz Scaggs fan—or just someone who appreciates a deep dive into music history—Jude Warne's book is a must-read. It's a comprehensive exploration of Scaggs's six-decade career, offering insights into his musical evolution from blues roots to pop stardom.

Warne delves into Scaggs's collaborations with artists like the Steve Miller Band and the session musicians who would form Toto, providing insight into the artistry behind albums such as Silk Degrees and Middle Man. In this episode, we discuss Skagg’s discography and these collaborations that have shaped his enduring musical legacy.
