Let Your Hair Down, according to plan, follows the number one blues album, BINGO!, as the second new Steve Miller Band album of the twenty-first century. He not only saved the bluesiest, rockingest, most guitar-playing-est tracks for the second serving, but he spent the additional year between releases tweaking, polishing and obsessively applying finishing touches that make Let Your Hair Down an even more fully realized record than its acclaimed, successful predecessor.
Miller sorted through an astronomical number of rhythm and blues, and blues recordings from his CD library seeking material for the auspicious Skywalker Ranch sessions. With classic rock engineer Andy Johns (Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones) at the console, Miller and his band, longtime musical collaborators road-tested over literally thousands of concerts, blasted through nearly three dozen tracks.
Also available as a Special Edition digipak featuring 4 bonus tracks.

Album Summary
Two CD set recorded live from Shady Grove, Washington, D.C. 1973 and The Beacon Theatre, NYC 1976. Steve Miller Band first emerged in late 60s and issued a string of blues influenced albums which while being critically acclaimed and well received, never achieved the huge commercial success that they were to achieve in the mid '70s with the more polished AOR Rock. This two CD set perfectly captures the two distinct phases of Steve Miller’s career. Disc One, recorded just after the release of The Joker in 1973, strongly echoes the blues roots of the band while Disc Two, recorded in 1976, showcases a band who had evolved into a multi-million selling act, able to challenge The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac as one of the biggest names in Rock. Snapper. 2007.
