Slow Dancer is the sixth album by Boz Scaggs, originally released by Columbia in 1974. It was produced by former Motowner Johnny Bristol of "Hang On In There Baby" fame.
The album was initially released with a cover photo of Scaggs walking alone on the beach,[4] with the back of the album framing a head and shoulders shot of Scaggs lying on the beach. The photographs were taken by Annie Leibovitz. After the breakout success of 1976's Silk Degrees, Slow Dancer was re-released with a new cover showing Scaggs and a woman in fine clothing, Scaggs bending to kiss her bosom. This photo was taken by Ethan Russell.
