Perhaps the most important participant of all is the legendary guitarist Duane Allman, who paved the way for the highly talented Scaggs to enter the Muscle Shoals Sound Studios in Alabama. Top-class soul musicians were lined up for him who had performed as the house band for Aretha Franklin and Wilson Pickett. The elite combo picked up their instruments immediately and offered a rich background sound in the bluesy \"I'm Easy\", with powerful rapid scale passages in the bass and fired-up winds. Inspired by the timbre of the blues, Scaggs sings a series of lyrical songs, sometimes backed by a small group of instruments - yet always well dosed and finely balanced. At times the organ whispers to the singer (\"I'll Be Long Gone\"), elsewhere finely tuned voices pipe up in the background (\"Another Day\"). And then there are down-to-earth waves of warm sound from the slide guitar and cheerful sounds of the fiddle in the strophic country song \"Now You're Gone\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHighlights of the album are the yodelling hobo song \"Waiting For A Train\" and the blues number \"Loan Me A Dime\", a show of strength if ever there was one. A new sizzling mix was made in 1978. Scaggs had demanded the remix to enhance the quality of the recording. After this came nothing for a long, long time. Now this album is available for the first time after 1978 in freshly pressed vinyl!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Speakers Corner LP was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the cutting head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecording: 1969 at Muscle Shoals Sound Recorders, Muscle Shoals, AL\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"features\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e180g High Quality Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePure Analogue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade from the original, analogue mastertapes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressed at Pallas in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cgatefold li=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/gatefold\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"selections\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSelections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide One:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm Easy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'll Be Long Gone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnother Day (Another Letter)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo You're Gone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinding Her\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLook What I Got\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide Two:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaiting For A Train\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoan Me A Dime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSweet Release\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Speakers Corner","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56683037950284,"sku":"4260019715852","price":8.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/2913\/4412\/files\/original_62cbc315-0cd3-46ef-9db0-5f7edbfc46e1.jpg?v=1770597855","url":"https:\/\/vinylpulses.com\/products\/boz-scaggs-boz-scaggs-speakers-corner-lp","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
