    Anyone else listening at 3:00 AM just to escape the chaos in the world? I’m 72 and have loved SD since I was 20. Saw them once before Walter passed away . They were so good I couldn’t believe how great they sounded. If you have anxiety this music is better than anything to soothe your soul and mind. ❤ Thank you Steely Dan for all the music over my lifetime. You’re a once in a lifetime band. ❤

Saw them once in Nashville at a college and the crowd was demonstrating about something stupid would have ruined the show, but the music was too good. I was about 20 then. almost 70 now. Still love to listen to the group.

    AJA was by far the most cultivated jazz oriented popular music of it's time. Of course Joni Mitchell with Tom Scott and his LA Express backing her material on "Court And Spark" were traveling a parallel path with Steely Dan. Aja and Court came out pretty much at the same time and really upped the ante for sophistication and class in the FM format.

    It's almost midnight and i get these feeling about my past god and bad , then i half to listing to Aja taking me to that world of Fagans and Beckers unique lyrics. Then the intense druming with larry gracefully picking his guitar, but that session with the drums and sax just ellavates me kind of euphoric mood. In the mid 70s i was little tired of cute rock seen and i need somemore of a modern jazz touch with some provactve druming and inteligent songwriting, God gave us Steely Dan and tooks us down a rabit hole were two musicians introduce us to a whole new genre of other master musicians that elevated rock and jazz. Well i slumbering to opening lyrics to Aja good night.

    The best studio/session band ever by far. Saw them once at Tangle Wood posing as "The New York City Jazz Review" what a surprise. Unbelievable, Truly.

    They were probably the best studio group ever. A couple a player song writers running an agency for free lance artists, at least back then. These days their a hell of a live band to. Love them then & love them now.
