Song of the Day 11/25: Boz Scaggs feat. Bonnie Raitt, “Hell to Pay”

Americans love horror stories, and Trump’s selection of a cabinet designed mainly to trigger the libs provides the media with plenty of them. As Boz Scaggs related in this blues tale, even if you buy a senator in Texas and a judge in New Orleans, there’s still hell to pay.

This duet with Bonnie Raitt appeared on Scaggs’ 2015 album “A Fool to Care.” Like his most recent LP, 2018’s “Out of the Blues,” it’s mostly a blues and soul revue; this is the last self-written song Scaggs has recorded. Scaggs hasn’t retired, though; he completed a tour of Japan this past spring.
