O’s Notes: Great singers take on challenges from time to time. Boz Scaggs takes a journey into jazz with Speak Low, a collection of a dozen standards. He is up front on center stage gracing us with warm vocals that come to life with each tune. The title track, “Do Nothing Till You Hear From Me”, “Save Your Love For Me” and “Dindi” are all evidence of what an R&B singer can do with focus, desire and above all a great voice. He’s got an orchestra behind him that is supportive and never in the way. Scaggs is on!
