When did you get into Steely Dan?

wease · Post by **wease** » Mon July 10, 2017 1:13 am

So, from what I can figure, I've now got everything Steely Dan has released (and some stuff they didn't). Starting tomorrow, I'm going chronologically from the very beginning. I got the first single yesterday, but I've not listened to either track yet. I also got FM yesterday and couldn't believe I didn't already have it. I recognized it immediately but never realized it was a soundtrack contribution and not on one of their albums*. I got the rest of what I needed today. Really looking forward to this.

*not including compilation albums with that comment.

I can't believe we haven't done a top 10 yet.

Bad Sneakers
Deacon Blues
Do It Again
Home at Last
Kid Charlemagne
King of the World
The Royal Scam
Show Biz Kids
Third World Man
Your Gold Teeth II

Fuck this is so hard. Just about any Dan song I'm listening to at any moment could be a candidate.

Oh, this WILL be hard. Is yours in any particular order?

Except the first one, no particular order

King of the World
Do It Again
Brooklyn (Owes the Charmer Under Me)
Boston Rag
Your Gold Teeth
Show Biz Kids
Pretzel Logic
Rikki Don't Lose That Number
Peg
The Second Arrangement

I'm in a huge first-three-album phase with them right now. Cuts had to be made.

How old are you, Dev? 12?

wease · Post by **wease** » Wed July 19, 2017 2:15 am

LV, you get a chance to listen to any of those 1974 shows that are up on youtube yet?

LoathedVermin72 · Post by **LoathedVermin72** » Wed July 19, 2017 2:24 am

I have not...I assume I should?

wease · Post by **wease** » Wed July 19, 2017 2:28 am

Oh, Christ yes. There are 3 full shows. Two of those are soundboard. I assume radio broadcasts. The other two or three are like the first half of other shows. Also soundboard. I can't stop listening to the Memphis show. If this band had kept touring, they could've been one of the biggest live acts of the 70s.

It's pretty badass that they just stopped touring though

Yeah. Definitely not the first time an act had done it. I can't wait to start their biography and see what the reasons were they stopped. They were fucking tight, man!
