The Nineties began what Scaggs calls chapter two of his career, with an album of original material, SOME CHANGE, and the Grammy-nominated COME ON HOME, a collection of R&B classics and originals.

With MEMPHIS, Scaggs looks back musically and biographically. "I had been thinking about a record that involved going back into my past" says Scaggs. "As a kid in the Fifties I was swept away by music and radio. It seemed there weren't enough hours in the day to keep up with that first wave of Rock and Roll coming out..."

"The project just fell out naturally," he says. The album includes classics like "Rainy Night in Georgia", "Corinna Corinna", "Mixed Up, Shook Up Girl", and a slew of originals.

Scaggs' unique voice and trademark sound make plain his abiding respect for a wide spectrum of American roots music. A soulful show not to be missed.
