Английская Википедия:Dig (Boz Scaggs album)
Шаблон:Infobox album Dig is an album by the American musician Boz Scaggs, released in 2001.[1] It peaked at No. 146 on the Billboard 200.[2] Scaggs promoted the album with a North American tour and an appearance on the television show Ally McBeal.[3][4] A limited edition of the album included a disc containing a 5.1 channel DVD-Audio and Dolby Digital surround sound mix.[5]
Production
Scaggs began working on the album in early 2000 by recording and mailing music to David Paich.[6] Dig was produced by Scaggs, Paich, and Danny Kortchmar.[7] Scaggs employed sound effects and samples on some of its songs.[8] Scaggs was backed by several members of the band Toto.[9] Roy Hargrove played trumpet on some of the tracks.[10] "Vanishing Point" is about two vagrants making their way to Las Vegas.[11] Scaggs raps on "Get on the Natch".[12]
Critical reception
Шаблон:Album ratings The Guardian wrote that "Dig sounds convincingly 21st century, but at heart it's the latest chapter in Scaggs's long-standing enthusiasm for rhythm and blues."[6] The Independent determined that "Scaggs is the American equivalent of Robert Palmer, an elegant R&B stylist with consummate blues and soul chops, whose career has been occasionally wrong-footed by the vagaries of musical fashion, despite the abiding excellence of his recordings."[7] The Mail on Sunday deemed the album "slow, understated and soulful; a record for Sunday nights and long, solitary drives."[13]
The Observer concluded that "Scaggs is still the blue-eyed soul voice against which others should be measured."[14] The Morning Call opined that "Scaggs's lame, late-'60s urban hipster attitude is the final shovel on Dig's grave, but it provides unintended laughs on tracks such as the lifestyle lesson 'Get on the Natch'."[15] The Orlando Sentinel noted that, "although his voice remains as warm and intoxicating as a shot of whiskey, Scaggs rarely lifts these songs above the level of pleasant, generic diversions."[16]
