1. The intro shuffle on this particular video is pretty ripping. Jeff Pocaro is a great drummer that worked in the service of the worst shit in the world. How sick would that song be with no brass and all that other bullshit? Sounds like a Led Zeppelin outake for about ten seconds.
2. I am a sucker for the fake out bring-it-up-a-third move they do when the vocals come in.
3. The pointing and direction thing immediately after Boz Scaggs sings the first lyric is practically identical to what my father used to do when playing - "just them." OK, Dad.
4. WTF with his plectrum technique? It's hilarious that he has all these hot-shit session dudes onstage, and he's very uncomfortably trying to play three-note bar chords.
5. The Boz at the office segment - WTF. Was the video director thinking, "Yeah, this rehearsal and live footage is good, but we need something that really gets across what a mover and a shaker Boz is in the music industry. Let's go to the office and film him picking up the phone and hanging up the phone about a hundred times, choose the best eight and throw those in somewhere."
