Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted June 15, 2009 Members Share Posted June 15, 2009 One of the greatest American bands/duos ever to record. Their music has some great memories associated with it. I can't wait. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofhDF9ltv0M [YOUTUBE]ofhDF9ltv0M[/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I then took a summer trip to China in 1986, and listened to that album incessantly over my walkman. To this day, the album reminds of "Chinese music and the banyan trees, here at the dude ranch above the sea." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members booher Posted June 15, 2009 Members Share Posted June 15, 2009 I saw them in 2006, and of all people to open...................wait for it.............................................Michael McDonald. hahaha. That's a great story to tell people my age. Their guitar player was on fire. I was a little disappointed they didn't play Reelin' in the Years, because I was a diehard fan of Can't Buy a Thrill for a long while. Fagen and Becker are two great, great song writers.

Members tattoedsailor Posted June 15, 2009 Members Share Posted June 15, 2009 Steely Dan {censored}ing rules I saw a couple years ago. Epic show! Dirty work is one my all time favorite songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted June 16, 2009 Author Members Share Posted June 16, 2009 Tonight reminded me that Gilmour, Clapton, Knopfler, and SRV get way too much hype. Walter Becker has one of the most distinctive, recognizable, and underappreciated Strat tones in all of Rock History. "Third World Man" was the gleaming jewel of the night. Strange, because it was never one of my favorites, but they really made love to it tonight. I have a new respect for the song now. I was thrilled to hear "Aja", "Home At Last", "Time Out of Mind", and "Josie" tonight. I was a bit disappointed by the lack of "Black Cow", "Dr. Wu", "Deacon Blues", "Do It Again", "Rikki Don't Lose That Number", and "Do It Again"; but they were brilliant all the same.

You expected them to play "Do It Again" twice? I agree: SD wrote some terrific songs and their studio work is excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon HeringtonI wasn't digging his tone in a lot of songs. Too much gain - made it sort of generic sounding. But he did most of the soloing in "Third World Man", and it was absolutely gorgeous.

To this day, the album reminds of "Chinese music and the banyan trees, here at the dude ranch above the sea." i pick up a new album whenever i go on a roadtrip, so i can have that same effect. steeley dan influenced punk in the same way that huey lewis and the news infulenced grunge.
