Boz on vocals and Duane on the lead guitar, with the muscle shoals swampers playing in the background. Absolute classic tune.

THANKS FOR PICKING THIS TUNE, JM!! 55 YEARS NOW, AND IT'S STILL THE GREATEST BLUES SONG THAT I'VE EVER HEARD!!! DUANE'S GUITAR IS JUST PHENOMENAL, AND SPOONER OLDHAM IS GREAT AS WELL!!!

[AliasMark]

Duane Allman made the top 10 on Rolling Stone magazine's 100 Greatest Guitarists list even though he died in 1971 at only 24 years of age. Scaggs' collaboration with Allman was a matter of being at the right place at the right time and capturing lightning in a bottle.

"BOZ".... Born William Royce Scaggs in Canton, Ohio on June 8, 1944, he grew up in Oklahoma and Texas, where he spent his teenage years immersed in the blues, R&B and early rock 'n' roll. Inducted into the Rock & Roll HOF 2003

The original version of “Loan Me a Dime” was a forty-minute jam session, which was shorted to the twelve-minute version on the Boz Scaggs album to fit the other songs.

What a great, great tune played by masters!!! So much soul😀🥰

[peteralbert]

One of the most beautiful and emotional songs ever. And Duane's guitar playing is so uniquely beautiful and unmistakable.

"Not A Music Expert".... You're getting there, one Classic Rock Artist/Song at a time. You have the best names in your Playlist. No better way to learn.

[AliasMark]

This song was known to someone involved with Boz Scaggs’ eponymous album released two years later in 1969. Scaggs’ album was an effort by Atlantic records to showcase a newly signed artist and highlight the talents of the Muscle Shoals rhythm section (including guitarist Duane Allman). The track, here simply called “Loan ME A Dime”, at twelve and a half minutes allowed “The Swampers”, as the group was known in the studio, to stretch out as never before being previously restrained to recording singles for artists like Aretha Franklin and Wilson Pickett.

I'm so glad u got to hear Duane Skydog Allman i think u can hear where the nickname came from, he could always take it to the next level higher in a most beautiful way, i could see he spoke to u. its beautiful

[penelopefloor]

One of my favorites. I still have my original vinyl.

Barry Beckett on keyboards just setting up the mood with all that melancholy regret and sadness, and then Duane comes in with Albert King-like licks that cause your heart to burst in pain. And then...Boz. Sorrow is his middle name, and he's carrying his guilt and grief like it's his last day on Earth. When he hits that high note on "Oh, she's a good girl, but at that time, I just didn't understand, " you KNOW his soul is about to go to Heaven. This man was TORMENTED by loss!

[krisfox]

Thanks for doing this song. I haven't listened to it for years. I still have the album but don't have a stereo anymore. I played this song so much I ruined the needle. The ending with the horns is just phenomenal. And duane well we all know how great he was. Rock on!

[AliasMark]

"A Joy To Listen Too".... Yep. There are songs that everybody knows because they were played on radio often. There are songs that aren't as well known by most we call "Album Cuts", and some that are legendary One Of A Kind Performances that everybody should hear at least once in their lives....
"Time Has Come Today".... "In-Gada-Da-Vida".... "Comfortably Numb"... "Free Bird".... "Stairway To Heaven"..."I Put A Spell On You"... "Don't Eat The Yellow Snow"...."Hotel California"...."All Along The Watchtower"...."Do You Feel Like We Do"... "Child Of Vision"..."Magnum Opus"..."Soul Sacrifice"...."Carry On Wayward Son"....This Is Another One Of Those.

[gatorgityergranny]

a real pinnacle.
an amazing achievement.

[doplinger]

There ya go, some fantastic early Boz!

[julieb.]

i love this song, it's the first song i heard by Boz, and I was a fan ever after. thank you! most people never even heard of this after he got more airplay for later things.

[chrisjamieson]

Off his debut album. Long but very excellent track, pays off for the listener.

[runningcathill]

THANK YOU FROM BUFFALO, NY. NIAGARA FALLS IS FLOWING AGAIN LOTS OF TEARS WHEN YOUR DOWN AND OUT.

[clifton]

Boz can sing the blues, R&B, and Funk with a unique smooth vocal style. So many great albums and songs to taste from a banquet of
unforgettable tunes. Don't rest on this great musician. Thanks, JMBOY, for all the light you're bringing to our lives. I know you love
guitarists like Duane Allman, Gary Moore, and SRV.
Duane and Gary are somer of the greats gone too soon. Gary does the best cover ever of Roy Buchanan's song "The Messiah.", and
totally kills it. If you want to hear someone who is the father of bending strings and amazing playing, try Roy Buchanan. I own every record
he ever made. No special effects, no pedals, just his guitar and bending the strings. Never got the respect he deserved. Jeff Beck adored
him ('Cause We Ended As Lovers) is dedicated it to him. SRV said he was beyond anything he had ever seen. Gary Moore called him The Master. But he's mostly unknown except to the Guitar Gods. He was called The Master of The Telecaster. Old School Great.
