STEVE SINGS THE STANDARDS! No longer will the rest of The Steve Miller Band be holding Steve Miller back on his first and only solo album, an album of jazz and blues covers. Where do jazz and blues meet? Does anyone remember the UPN show "Shasta McNasty"? What songs have you heard the most in your life? Did Steve pass his test? Did he play it too safe? Did he at least use a clean tone? Should you ever open an album with "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah"? If Steve was going to pretend to be Les Paul, shouldn’t he have got someone to be his Mary Ford? Is "Hudson Hawk" any good? If this is a passion project, where is the passion? We'll try and uncover the truth behind all of this on this episode of Detours and Outliers.
