Yea, I have Boz's version too. I like Toto version but upon hearing them both again, Scaggs "Miss Sun" is a lil'bit more funkeyer.

That's interesting as David Paich wrote it and i'm guessing this same rhythm section played on Boz's version.
They should've let the female vocalist have the lead on this one.

Somewhere out there is a mediocre take on this tune by The Average White Band.

Another classic track! the kind of songwriting talent that was in Toto is no longer present in modern popular music. Those guys had melodies coming out of their pores. They played on just about everyones record from the late 70's and on.

The female vocalist on both versions is Toronto native, Lisa Dal Bello. She was hot and very talented. Could have easily fit right in the Prince camp!
