It’s Steely Dan on a very special ‘F*ck you’ edition of Sunday Jams. The ‘F you’ is a shout out of support to Donald Fagen who recently told a documentary maker to go f*ck himself, when the dude asked Fagen to participate in his lame, cash grab of a ‘documentary’. Now, I don’t blame the documentary dude for wanting to make some money and asking Fagen to be in his little video presentation. However, I got nothing but love for Fagen for telling the dude to go f*ck himself and hanging up on him.
I won’t mention the doc here, because I don’t wanna help with any free press. Ha! I will say this though: Steely Dan is completely amazing. All of it. Top to bottom, amazing. It is a level of music that few can ever hope to attain, let alone repeat over and over again.
Is Steely Dan my favorite? No. Are they operating on a whole different level? Yup. Here’s some great stuff from Steely Dan on Sunday Jams.
Now crank this shit up. If the only thing you do today is enjoy the sonic goodness of the guitar on the ‘Reelin in the Years’… that’s an awesome thing. Let’s go!
