About this album

Born 2B Blue shows Steve Miller leaning away from arena rock and into a polished blend of jazz, blues and pop standards. Issued in 1988, the album finds him revisiting classic material such as “God Bless the Child” and the title song with a relaxed, melodic approach that suits his light touch as both singer and guitarist. Rather than chasing the sound of his hit-making years, Miller uses the set to underline his taste for American roots music and understated phrasing. The result is a stylish detour in his catalogue, and one of his most distinctive late-1980s releases.
