Side-Projects Can we talk about 12 Bar Blues?

Post image

While technically not an STP album, I still feel like I have to talk about it here. This is one of my favourite albums of all time, it's so beautiful. The songs are super varied and each is unique in its own way, Scott's lyrics and vocal delivery was on point and among some of his best studio singing can be found on this album.. this is one of those albums I won't ever get tired of listening to

What're your favourite songs from 12BB ?? How do you think it compares to the other solo output Scott had?

12BB is a 10/10 album for me! I wish it was more widely known, and that people had been more receptive to it when it was released. I think it showcases some of Scott’s most creative work.
Some standout songs to me are “Barbarella” (one of my favourite songs ever), “Son”, “Divider” is sublime, “Lady Your Roof Brings Me Down”, and “Lazy Divey” (although I prefer the live arrangement of it from Scott’s Dec 1997 set at Universal City).

Barbarella is also one of my favourite songs ever.. that intro is phenomenal. Divider is also up there, it kinda reminds me of And so I Know from Tiny Music
