Steely Dan found!

Digging further into the stacks, I rediscovered early Steely Dan. I'm listening to Countdown to Ecstasy right now. Earlier I played Can't Buy A Thrill. The latter was their first album, and it's pretty pop oriented. The former is more jazzy and very good, although Fagen and Becker still hadn't found the sound they were looking for. They got closer in Pretzel Logic.

Fun stuff.

... and I notice that these two songs are not yet on ILP -- must do something about that :)

oops -- we're talking albums (and instrumentals in some cases); still, certain songs are missing ...
