Boz Scaggs - I'll Be Long Gone

What the hell, another cut from the same album. This is a song obviously written by someone who was deeply in love with late fifties / early sixties rhythm and blues. When I first heard it I thought it was written by Laura Nyro, who also loved and was deeply influenced by the same kind of music. But it's a B. Scaggs original, and the chorus, once it takes up residence in your head, will never leave.
