You don't hear lots of people talk about them, thier really good in my opinion. Thier lyrics also rock. Does any one else in here like Steely Dan, and what song you like best. I just love bad sneakers and rikkie dont lose that number. Thier songs discribe lonley saterday nights in the rain. Just love it. Kind regards, ps sorry for the crappy english (dutch here)
I'm a pretty big fan of theirs also. I admire their sardonic lyrics, and their choice in top musicians. There are so many songs I like (including Bad Sneakers) I just can't think right now. I haven't listened to them in awhile though.
Consummate musicians! But I think their music tends to sound a bit same-old same-old after a while. Even so, I think "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" is an exquisite song.
They started OK, got really good with Pretzel Logic and the Royal Scam, and then went Hollywood and down.....
kid charlemange, my fav. they do hire fantastic guitarist! love 'em. However,...i am getting tired of the same formula all the time. wish there was something new and 'fresh' by Fagen.
