Moments Worth Listening For
The effortless, sun-drenched shuffle of Rock and Stick that immediately recalls the rhythmic precision of his 70s peak.
The haunting, sparse guitar work on the Neil Young cover On the Beach that stretches into a six-minute atmospheric centerpiece.
The way the organ swells behind Scaggs' weathered vocal on I've Just Got to Forget You, adding a church-like gravity to the heartbreak.
