I second Kinky's comment on Zing - he's a great player!
Hey I think Kinky's on to something here. I'm something of a sax player myself and I've never heard of Saxophonist Magazine. Maybe "Playing" was "playing" a little early April Fool's joke on us. But I'm willing to give him/her the benefit of the doubt. So, Mr or Mrs Playing, if you really have such a magazine, why don't you enlighten us all with the publisher, publisher's address and phone number so we all can enjoy reading the "Tom Scott interview" for ourselves. Somehow I think the answer will be deafening silence.
So, maybe,
"playing lied, we could see in in their diatribe...'

While I don't have a copy, I regularly see a magazine dedicated to the noble saxophone at my neighborhood bookstore. Possibly called "Saxophonist", "Sax Player" or something same same.

I got something for you here, for you who can read ( R O C K your audi). Barney Hoskyns got a new book out, WAITING FOR THE SUN (Viking), it´s about the musicscene in LA, and Steely Dan has a big part in the book, about their subversive lyrics. Fagens says that he wanted to make some agony-painfull muzac as false as the 50s in US when they grow up. ( false hapiness )

Kinky - Thanks for your reply, they're the only things that make me want to not post anymore.
You may think the Metheny/Bailey/Haden idea is absurd, but that's your opinion. That doesn't make it absurd. Metheny has been known to combine club dates with recording dates to compliment his playing in both arenas. Bailey's "out" leanings contrasted against Haden's folk/jazz leanings would have served Metheny well to this end. Who knows? A roundly out-of-hand rejection of this theory is rather absurd IMHO.
And what's different about a new SD album? Simple... It's a freakin' new SD album! Seems to me, any musician in his right mind would avail themselves the opportunity to appear on the first SD album in 16 years! This ain't no solo effort. And like I said, Tom Scott met with Walter back in March of '96 to discuss future recording prospects. It wouldn't surprise me in the least bit to see some of the old-timers resurected for the new album.
Yeah, wishful thinking on my part... so what? What's a guestbook for if not to discuss all of the possibilities?
Maybe we should just go back to attacking one another. That makes for some really constructive discussion, eh what?

I´m still trying to make friends with you. Will you take the chance? I´ve got nothing against you, I know what anger can do with the keyboard at hand.

I´m sorry for my bad english.
JGMurtha - I would venture to guess that reading comprehension wasn't one of your strong points on those grammar school tests. Nevertheless, I thought I'd give your theory a shot and saw a great show in the City last night. The band featured Tom Scott (of March '96 interview fame), and as I relaxed to his smooth sounds, I thought, "maybe Murtha's right, maybe he is in town to record the new SD album," but this was only the beginning...As Scott began introducing the rest of his band, I was blown away! On bass - Will Lee (Gaucho/Nightfly), on drums - Bernard Purdie (Royal Scam/Aja/Gaucho), and on percussion - Ralph McDonald (Aja), "Wow! A Steely Dan band sans Donald and Walter! Murtha was really on to something here! They must be preparing for a Steely Dan album, I mean, why else would they all be playing in New York City together?" During the break, I decided to find out if JG's theory was, in fact, correct. I approached Ralph McDonald, and after the usual compliments, I proceeded..."My internet buddy, Joe Murtha, told me you guys must all be in town together to record the new Steely Dan album, is this true?" He replied with a puzzled look, "Internet what? Steely Dan? We're all friends and have been playing on and off together for the last 25 years. Here's our schedule."
Between you and me, Joe, I think he was full of shit. You know, Starz Vanderlocket's playing somewhere in the Village next week, there must be *something* to this.
what's this? peace and love on the danboard? clas making peaceful overtures toward ROCK? even that perpetual curmudgeon kinky is offering an olive branch here to Joe...... have i suddenly slipped into some bizarre, alternate-universe danboard here?

I´m not afraid of death, and I´m not thinking I´m going to die. But this will be my last post for a while, and take care, and I´m sorry for all those foolish postings I´ve made.

Kinky - You're not gonna believe this one old friend but oddly enough, I too was privy to a great show in the City last night. And coincidence of coincidences, this show also featured the smooth sounds of Mr. Tom Scott - as well as several other players that I instantly recognized as being Steely Dan alumni. Wow, I thought, maybe I am on to something here. Maybe these guys are all in town to guest on that real Doodlee new Steely Dan album all the kids are talking about! But wait a minute I thought, what would my tactful internet buddy, Kinky, think of this arrangement of players? "They're here in the City every other week" he would say... " It would be absurd to think they're in town for anything other than a week of club dates between old friends." So during the break (wait, wait... you won't beleive this one) I was able to actually get a private audience with one Mr. Will Lee of Dave Letterman/Gaucho/ Nightfly fame. I then proceeded to share my thoughts on his playing... "your bass playing is absurd sounding" I barked, "and you've got one wild imagination on that instrument of yours there, William..." Can you beleive this guy, he actually took offense at this! What gives I thought, my internet buddy, Kinky, gets away with this kind of bullshit on the guestbook all the time. I guess some people simply lack the ability to comprehend constructive human interaction.
Just between you and I Kink, there must be *something* to this... Joe
Wow-finally, what great banter on the Guestbook!!! Congrats to Kinky & Murtha. I have to say that while Kink's arrogant but well crafted sarcasm ripped( in say the Dennis Miller tradition), Murtha's incisevly mocking and biting retort was more than worthy. So did any of our former SD friends let loose on any notable Dan riffs? PS I heard Skunk Baxter was in Greenwich Village this weekend with an Epiphone- yes! he must be back too! Anyone seen the boot called Dirty Work(inclds Orpheum,Boston '74 show & Scam outakes incl Second Arrgmt + some other demos) on the "Sinsemilla" label?- damn profiteers......
Coincedence, I think not...
I must say that it is all good that sightings are about. All this degenerating board needed was some decent speculation about NewDan. It seems like eons since the tour. Am I alone?
DAMN, I wish I lived closer to NYC! I'd love to sample some decent jazz. Lotsa loud, mediocre blues in these parts -- not the same. Then again, I'd be bitchin' if I got far away from the blues scene in CHI, so what's a fan to do?
da: happy, happy! dem 'cats knocked off three #1s enroute -- wow!
hey major: what's your take on the recent activity?
"The band was hot, so..."
QGB, as Pete Fogel himself has noted recently, all those boots that claim to include "unreleased Royal Scam rehearsal sessions" or "tour rehearsals from 1976" are in reality a Steely Dan cover band from Connecticut. I've heard some and am truly amazed that anyone would think that bad singer was Donald.
Penile wart! Indeed. Simply because I have the "testicles" to stand up and be counted, using my real name and E-mail address. 11ToW, Fan: you are a slimeball lowlife without even enough guts sat who you really are. I'll enjoy my freedom of speech anytime, just as you will, except you'll be behind a tree!
Paul C.
Kinky, your encouragement is noted and I'll listen closer, thanks.
Dear Auntie,
I had this worrying dream last night. Donald and Walter were playing in Queenstown, Tasmania (if you know Queenstown, you know how worrying this is). Apart from some great drummer, the rest of the band (lesser mortals: Tom Scott, Drew Zingg, Will Lee, Cornelius, Ralph (though it could have been Michael) McDonald) was consigned to another stage nearer the bar. At the interval Walter came up and asked if I'd give up my day job to look after his kids in some English mansion while he and Don and the band went off round Europe to record their new album (they wanted my name on some liability contract, not theirs... suspicious, no?). I am concerned because the offer wasn't a lot of money and he didn't want to take me with him... not even to the pub next door where they were serving much better beer. I'd bust my butt to get to the gig and all I got was flat beer and a child-minding job. Forget the rumours of the new band and the new album, do I have a crush on a guy with short clean hair and a skinny tie?
Yours, etc
Richard&kangaroos
PS: SFKnight - belated congratulations on the arrival of Chloe - so, you're not quite a complete tosser after all! Hope you're grabbing as much sleep as you can and watch out for your back.
amanda--yeah, but it was that warm, cuddly, endearing kind of sarcasm. yeah, that's it.......
peace,

I beg to differ, according to friend of Roger Nichols who lives in TN they are real- and if they are not, much of the guitar rips better than Krantz or Zing ever did on the tour. PS Larry Carlton when asked on a recent gig affirmed them as real. But then who cares- "if your feelin' lucky you best not refuse" - also maybe the DAN Elite have an agenda in protecting the good(un "produced") works of the boys.In the world of Dandom there is a very fine line between reality and reality- just ask Clas! Q
Additionally, I have to say that if this is just some hack band they sure got the guitar "sound" awfully perfect relative to the album versions ie Kid C.- listen again, also relative to the Katy Lied Outtakes and Bent Over Backwards I don't hear a material difference in Donald's voicing. But the I'm sure those items are all fakes too. Again who cares- all the outtake crap is curiosity material(even if mildly entertaining) at best anyway. Q
U2's new album bombed. Can't even sell a million units. Steely Dan will be lucky to sell 200,000, and won't be played on the radio except in elevators. They'll be dropped by their record label after their new one bombs in a line of their other recent bombs, New York Rock n Soul, Kamakiriad, 11 Tracks of Crap, Alive In American. The time of their time has come and gone....
Q-I'm with you re outtakes stuff. That's unmistakeably Donald on Night By Night, and Beau Bolero never had a horn section. As for poster above, should it matter to us worshippers of their music, whether or not a new SD release is a commercial success? If we love it, is that all that matters? I guess if the record flew out of the stores and garnered all kinds of critical praise it would encourage the boys to produce more, but I dunno...Any thoughts on this?
Last Gasper: Aren't you being a touch negative? Do you wish to procure a kick in the 'nads.
I don't think that you are very nice! Perhaps you are into thrash metal, or maybe you like listening to Bread!
Either way, why the Grim Reaper attitude? Do you like being insulting about the finest music ever to appear round our ears? Are you the sort of guy who e-mails viruses to people for a laugh? Or are you some contrived Dan-alter ego, placed on this post board to infiltrate and examine true Dan fandom? Are you one of Donald F's aliens, beamed here to destroy all Dan as we know it?
Good King Richard: Cheers for the congrats! Did I manage to offend you as well?
There are some very bizarre entities on this board. It seems that all sorts wish to communicate!! Cool. Although, I do not know why so many are choosing to using different handles. It's wierd!!! And it scares me! No not really, but it's hard enough to get to know everyone without them changing their names so often.
Still, I shall whinge about this no more!!! Anyone fancy paying for me to fly over to the States and see the Dan again??? I doubt it.
laters pretzel ones
Anyone? What is Donalds relationship (if any) with Phoebe Snow? I hear her voice sometimes on TV comercials, she still has it. Has she ever been on a SD tune? I think she would be a nice fit on the new CD.
Gasper: Buy a copy of Poll Star magazine. Yes U2 record sales and tour tickets are crashing. So is everyone else. It seems that the smaller venue tours are the way to go. Big stadium tours are just about gone. U2 and other acts are trying to make way to much money. Gasp, In 1978 Foreigner and Cheap Trick tickets went for $7.50. In 1995 the Eagles tkts went for $75.00 a pop!
Anyway, the Dan's time has just begun. You'll see. "I got the news" is on the box. Michael McDonald is frickin' awesome.
Zeke
Q/jon: so if those are really Scam outtakes, what is Night by Night doing on there? Oh yeah, maybe that was really the rehearsals for the 1976 tour, we all know they were going to do a 1976 tour, right?
Zeke: probably Donald and Phoebe are just friends, or at least they were a few years ago during NYR&SR time. Sounds like they were just both fans of that R&B/60s soul stuff.
For those who believe tjat (that) (Quantity of)Sales=Greatness, I guess you could use some guidance about quality, although this is a weighty and lengthly subject, and something that I don't want to pursue here. Probably would be a waste of time for you, my small minded friend.
For those who understand quality in reference to the Dan, and why, if even their album is a commercial flop, why their work is still in high order and worthy of our ears, can't we speculate about what the new album will sound like? Are the boys going to continue in the Kami vein, or proceed like 11TOW, or something new?
Are they (please god) going to attempt to reinvent AJA? now that we know for sure that Tom Scott and crew are going to play on the album (a bow to Kinky-thanx for your painstaking research)?
or are they going to do a heavy metal album with horns, or a latin tinged reprise of The Girl from Ipenema with Donald on VOX?
Who knows? It's interesting guessing tho'.
as always, "It's beautiful in NYC today."
YGK
Clas, Don't pull out on us now buddy; if you're depressed and/or sick, surely you'll want to draw on the wit and insight of this select group. What if we promise to take back half of the mean things we said about you? Speak to me.
Regarding your theory on Rose Darling (Mary's dead.), do you perceive that Rose and her gentleman friend killed her? I guess being in Detroit with lots of money wasn't just a dream, but Mary's final reward in the afterlife (or since it's Detroit, it could be her final punishment). I can see a Brian de Palma or Clive Barker movie in the making: .........ROSE DARLING.....she'll make YOUR wildest dreams come true!!
groovessentially, RS
NRBQ anybody?
Like the Dan, it's sneaky musical sophistication slipped into a disguise. Unlike the Dan, its disguise is stupidity and a straight-ahead 4/4 beat.
Talk to me, my friends.
Earthbound: What do I think of the flurry of "activity"? Well, for starters, I've just rearranged the next few days to be in NYC.
Plus, I went out for a drive yesterday since the weather was nice and coulda sworn that I saw "Skunk" Baxter headed northbound on I-95, right around the Ben Franklin bridge exit in Philadelphia. If it was him, he was driving a late-70's Chevy Nova, white with mag wheels. This guy was wearing a beret. It has to have been him.
Sue: my show is on this Tuesday, the 8th. 88.9 at 8pm. there's an extra dose of Dan in it this time. Just for you.

QGB & Jon - YOU'VE GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING ME!! You call yourselves Steely Dan fans. And Q, I thought you were a "seasoned" collector, well you both have been Royally Scammed. That cd you have has been around since the early 80's, and is, in fact, a cover band from Connecticut.
Let's see, it's called Dirty Work? Then there must be a version of said song on your album. Well, on Beau Bolero's tape, they perform a horrendous reggae version of Dirty Work, sound familiar Q? Another song on that rarest of gems you have found might be My Old School. If they left it off your cd it's probably because they say "Waterbury" rather than "California tumbles into the sea"...Waterbury, as in CT. As far as the Royal Scam songs go, that cover band also did Green Earrings, Kid Charlemagne, and The Fez. Does your album contain any different Scam songs? I doubt it. Q, if Larry Carlton admitted that this garbage was legit, he must have been shot in the brain rather than the throat.
Oh, and Jon, Beau Bolero never had a horn section, but neither does that version of Night by Night. That's the cheesiest sounding synthesizer I've ever heard, and you REALLY think that's Donald on vocals??
Does your cd include that FM vamp, if so, it's probably fairly obvious that it was recorded during the same sessions as the Scam songs, and how can that be? FM wasn't recorded until '78. But then again, *obvious* is one thing you don't get.
So Q, Roger Nichol's *friend* told you this was real? Was he the one that sold it to you? I'm sure he had a good laugh on this one.
In the world of Dandom, some people know the difference between Donald Fagen and some sorry ass bar band singer...and then there's you.
the voices, the voices, please make them stop
A lot of people have asked me over the years about possible SD tour rehearsals and have sent me a number of these tapes, which all ended up being the same thing under different titles (the same tape Kinky's talking about). The first time I heard it, (early 80's) I knew it was not Steely Dan, and figured it was some cover band. About a year later, the Steely Dan cover band Beau Bolero sent me a bio and tape so that Metal Leg could run a story on them. I then realized that these so-called Steely Dan tour rehearsals were of this band, since they sent me the exact same tape.
Whether this is the same thing Quentin is talking about, I'm not sure. He purchased it as Royal Scam outtakes, which is one title I've never heard before, but when you're dealing in boots, anything goes. But I would doubt very seriously that something like this would surface after 22 years. I'm pretty sure that Walter had most of that stuff burned a long time ago.
BTW, Gary Katz is starting his own record label which will primarily feature rap artists.
Hal AKA Kinky, first of all I bought the CD so I could listen to the Orpheum material in my car! The other crap is obviously suspect(as all boot material is- and as I said in prior post most of that stuff is of curiosity value only anyway. Roger Nichol's friend does not sell music material- he trades S&P futures(with me) and has known Roger since their teens. But in you eminent arrogance and apparent inability to read and fully comprehend a paragraph, coupled with your often misplaced and interminable caustic attitude your post surprises me little. Yes I am a seasoned SD collector but as I told you personally I focus on "factory" material & again view most of this outtake crap as esoteric. Let me ask you Oh Swami Jr. have you ever really seen the group "Steely Dan"- I doubt it- since no real Steely Dan group has toured since '74! So what is reality in the world of Dandom- well Kink it's that there are people who don't need to be in your face ass#%@'s ALL the time.....and then there's you-you are so self absorbed w/regards this board, it's pathetic. PS Notice the distinct difference in "tone" between Pete's post and Hal from CT AKA Kinky's? Pete you are the Swami for many reasons-hat's off to you man. Q
Sorry for the double post but... oh yah Kinky I never said it was a rare gem- it's available through Goldmine all day long- for any one who would like a VG+ quality CD format of the Orpheum show along with some "suspect" material and some "real" demos. Q PS Pete- do you know of the aprox size of the run of the Aja japanese produced promo posters w/original Aja cvr girl-painted in white,holding opened gatefold cover?- I'm told it was limted to @500......oh!-maybe Kinky knows!
Q - Trying to make me look like the bad guy, huh? Remember this?
Rotten Ralph wrote - "QGB, as Pete Fogel himself has noted recently, all those boots that claim to include "unreleased Royal Scam rehearsal sessions" or "tour rehearsals from 1976" are in reality a Steely Dan cover band from Connecticut. I've heard some and am truly amazed that anyone would think that bad singer was Donald."
To which, you replied - "I beg to differ, according to friend of Roger Nichols who lives in TN they are real- and if they are not, much of the guitar rips better than Krantz or Zing ever did on the tour. PS Larry Carlton when asked on a recent gig affirmed them as real."
And now you're trying to say you never thought this "crap" was legit? Well Mr. Assetate, I think it's YOUR apparent inability to read and fully comprehend YOUR OWN paragraphs. And if I was so self absorbed with regards to this board, I wouldn't be trying to prevent some unsuspecting Dan fans from plunking down $50 or so on some mediocre coverband that's being passed off by you as the real thing. Come to think of it, Quentin, I'd like to know what other Steely Dan "Rare Gems" you have in your collection.
Eminent Arrogance? If that's what you call being correct, then I guess that's me.
Kinky, er, Kranky, er, Rotten Ralph, er Hal...
Who the hell are you anymore my malevolent and callous hate child? Was it Babs who let you out of the playpen again?
I turn around for one minute and here you've gone and started another shit slinging campaign in the sandbox. I'm afraid our friend Q is well-grounded in his comments about you, my dear Hal. You are sadly, a pathetic, over-the-top, mean-spirited, arrogant, canker of a human being. Hal, you really, (no, I mean really) have got to get a flippin' life!
Hear me out... This is a reckoning of just some of the more recent discharge to ooze from your modem to all of ours to demonstrate what I mean...
You effused... "QGB & Jon - YOU'VE GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING ME!! You call yourselves Steely Dan fans."
You also cackled... "I would venture to guess that reading comprehension wasn't one of your strong points on those grammar school tests."
And then... "the rest of you hard up cases see a so-called female and egg them on"
Followed by... "why don't you find your own fucking forum" and "why don't you shutup and try to learn something, or go somewhere else."
These last two beg the obvious question... Why don't you?
Then you expulcated... "Q - Trying to make me look like the bad guy, huh?"
Hal... my dear, dear Hal... YOU are making YOU look like the bad guy! If that's what you call being correct, then I guess that's you.
NRBQ ROCKS! (Especially live)

Where do I affirmatively state that these are real Hal? I simply made references to other sources. Where do I back peddle? I simply said from the start that most of the outtake stuff is curiosity quality stuff. And let's just get right down to it-According to yourself all the stuff you have- your little soundboards are really just STOLEN MATERIAL from your little mixing buddy that you glommed on to - I wonder if Donald and Walter approve of this? I know you got your social skills from Beavis and Butthead but get real. As for my acetates and test pressings, and promo posters & 1974 unused ticket stubbs, and group tour jackets and signed guitars by SD members, and complete 45 collection including PROBE & Stateside lbl material as well as one of a handful known factory East St. Louis Toodle 45 promo pic slv, etc,etc,etc,etc: well these all have palpable market value. And oh your so altruistic saving all those Dan Fans their $50- thanks Swami(NOT)Jr. Q ......see you KinkySoNSo- Haitian Divorced from reality.Keep brown nosing your way around DANDOM
Clean Willy-- we both know it comes from YOUR side of the family.
Kinky I've had the tape of the above referenced "Scam" material for a long time and frankly only listened to it once or twice over that span- simply noting this to verify my over all interest in the material. I recently purchased CD- again to listen to '74 Orpheum material in car because I like that tour/show material- gee I'm sorry if they included the other material on the CD(although it does contain the full band version of the 2nd Arrangement for those who don't already have it). Hal your life must be incredibly devoid of any real meaning since you hover over this board so closely and take SUCH juvenile pride(hubris) in being "right"- luckily for me the things that I make sure that- I alone espouse and represent to be true and correct analysis based on my own serious assessment(not only relying on third party representations and cursory analysis by myself(again listened to tape @ twice in a couple of years and CD only once! prior to posts) have yielded me a mid six figure income for the last 14 years including my last college year. I don't know what you get out of this board but I don't derive my self worth from it so don't bother with your sputum at me. PS my original intent in even noting the CD was the reference to the humorous "Sinsemilla" label as manufacturer(see original post)....but then there are people who like casual humor(or attempts there in)-not ceaseless denegration....and then there's you. Q To others unless seroiusly provoked this is all the space on the Guestbook I'll waste on this.
Clean Willy, or should I say Q, spouts: "Hal, you have got to get yourself a flippin' life."
I would say that since all Clean Willy seems to do around here is wait for Kinky to post so he can flame him, that maybe Clean Willy needs to get his own flippin' life.
Do you all dislike Kinky's message or the presentation? I sense a clarity of mind that is rare.
Kinky, keep on Bro!

We are trying to track down all of these one-time posters that magically appear out of the woodwork (Jack of Dick, 11 TOW fan, Rotten Ralph). Most of these posts appear to be coming from New York. We suspect a third New Yorker may be responsible. Well, we're on the case.
With Lots of Luv, Operatives #237 and #217 (We have to remain in hiding now. This is all very covert stuff, so we have to keep our identities secret.) Not hypocritical, just ironic. All will be revealed in the end. More field reports later-----
#237: "Helmsman, prepare to raise The Flaming Shield-----"
Helmsman: "Aye!"
#237: "Engage shield, FULL POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!"
Field Report #000655321<< ....spew...spew...spew....
WB, amanda: As a reminder, at 2 am Sunday morning DO NOT touch
your clocks! Simply maintain the usual routine.
clas: health evades the recluse - pls write.
Chloe: "Good girl! Had an argument last night with a gal over not whether, but when,
Gerry Rafferty played in SD. WTF does Steeleye Span mean, I wonder?
#237+217: Conclusion confidence--high, over/out.
"you were very high"
and it really messed up my handle list----damn, (grumbling)
No t telling "us" how much I make I'm simply drawing a point to Hal. On the question of authenticity, I'll defer to the real Swami's logic and insight- but still have to say that the guitar "sound"i if not technique is a haell of a lot better than others I've heard on behalf of the boys. "clarity of mind"?? How' bout Time Out Of Mind and Third World Man. Your right can't get caught up in all of this counter productive negatavism. Clean Willy....such clever cryptology. Back to the music Q
Did anyone else catch the Dan on VH1 today? They did a live "Reeling in the Years" from 1973. I was only able to tape about half of it (running around my house searching for a tape). It should come on again the next 8-Track Flashback. It was really rockin'.
Check in after a week, and the flames here are as high as ever...
mW--CC&F was great! and you were right, Roy Haynes=da bomb!!!
Maj--I will try to tune in on Tuesday, I might have to tape it as
I have a date with an orthopedic surgeon. Not dinner, but to
review a MRI. Unfortunately, I blew my knee out @ Wed. night
racquetball, and will be wheelchair-bound for some time.
Anyone going to the Cape May (NJ) Jazz Fest next weekend?
ciao, BC
SFKnight: Nah mate! just an affectionate leveller for the joobious joys of parenthood. When I said "watch out for your back" I meant as in "...so that it doesn't seize up like mine" not as in "...'cos Kinky, Clas and YGK are out to get ya!"
Clas: You know laughter and fine music are the best cure, so I hope you'll be back here real soon.
SD Operatives: more please
those Missing (inaction?): where are you?
NYC residents: any tips on good music stores (particularly of the Steely kind) in Manhattan? - only heard of Subterranean Records, on Bleecker & West4th(?), so far.
Finally, any suggestions on what the Gary Katz rap is likely to sound like?

A moment of silence please...
Beat Poet, friend of William Borroughs, Becker's muse for the "Alive in
America" liner notes approach # 2 and all around Dan literary
archtype Allen Ginsberg bought the big one at his home in Greenwich
Village in NYC at around 2:00AM Sunday morning.
May he now rest in peace with the best writers of his generation.
Kerouack, et. al...
I'm not certain yet if it was worth the tradeoff but...This new Pathfinder has a CD player standard but no tape player. So if it's live I NEED to hear, then the AinA v. Revue debate will rage on. Anyways...Tom Barney lays it down tight for Green Earrings on AinA. God Damn, you don't hear that on the boots. There's a bass guitar in there!!!
Remember, Show Biz Kids right into Jack of Speed. A great one-two to open the next tour. Barney would be all over that.
maj.
#237 & #217: thanks for noticing; wearing a lot of flat hats these days; time's precious, but there's nothing like cruising through the Catskills in a newly-refurbished cool rollin bubble with Kama, Metheny's Travels, First Circle and Franks' Art of Tea.
S.F. Knight: Congrats--same day as my sister's.
maj.: thx for the mention--that bass in yet?
Damned to the East!!!
SD Operatives #237 and #217: I'm glad you did not include me among your list of MIA's, although lately I have found it wise to heed your warning and hide in my bunker filled with sand.
A week ago, the Northeastern US was Snowbound. Today we are driving into Springtime. New England weather is so outrageous!!
Later, Beautiful Survivor
Operatives #237 and #217: You apparently must work for the government, because much of your info is wrong.
Firstly,
I'm not on 24-7 like you imply - check my posts - when, oh when do I post? - during the day - er, weekdays, dude. Wrong-O.
Secondly, I'm am not Connie Lee, I am not the Rev. Al, I have, however, been called the Mayor of 12th Street. I am YourGoldKeith, or otherwise known as YGK. That, my friend is a statement full of integrity.
Thirdly, Kinky is NOT a New Yorker, by any means. And, in his defense, although I need not defend him, he isn't on 24-7 either.
We don't fight like we used to - it got pretty boring.
I'm flattered however, for the blind publicity.
YGK
amanda, look in the NRBQ bin for "Diggin' Uncle Q" and "God Bless Us All," both on Rounder. They're both live. Your folks will love 'em, tho I'm not sure it translates for someone who's never been to a show.
Hello You,
Talking of MIA's, what about the amazing Stiff. English bassist and only man in his block dancing through the Birminham NEC show. Where is this paragon of Dandom? Where is this cool and not un-handsome beast of the bass. Yes, why I am [crossed out] where is he?
Answers please.
steely dan the finest of hi-tech american rock. it just doesn`t get much better than these guys. i am a serious keyboard player myself, and have been in the biz for over 30 years. i find them very challenging in their technique.

Richard: there is a huge Virgin Mega store in Times Square - the last time I checked they had a modern selection of SD (the early works were in short if little supply). I assume you're looking for CD's, however, if you're looking for vinyl, check out St. Marks Place between 2nd and 3rd Avenue - St. Marks is essentially 8th Street East - and there are a couple of record stores there of note.

Looks like Pete Fogel has done it again with his latest sound byte page. Donald covering Ray Charles??? When did that one happen, Pete?

maj.
Pearl, PPPaul,
Because I am so rarely allowed to air my views on the guestbook,
I would like to take this opportunity to get a few things off my chest.
First, these replies to some recent posts: It's the presentation,
I have one - thank you very much - To C.K. of Fair Lawn, New Jersey:
Certainly not. The rather novel type of interview you have repeatedly
requested cannot possibly be arranged, even in the state of California. To J.
"S." Baxter of Los Angeles: Sorry, Jeff, but D+W's royalties haven't
come in either. And finally, to Ruthie, age forty, R.D. 52, Eugene,
Oregon: No; yes; no; about seven and a half inches; sure thing, you
bet; Mahalo Hilton, October 25th and 26th, ask at the desk.
Babs... If you'll recall - it was your doting mother, (hovering
over the poor infant all hours of the day and night for chrissakes),
that created this experiment in artificial stupidity.
Willy, dear, of course she hovered! She was bewildered, as was I, when, at 3 weeks of age, he was already yelling in that thick, gruff voice of his, "You see, I'm right again! It IS time for a feeding" and "And you call yourself a PARENT?".
I really like that sample of Donald signing "I Got News for You". Pretty cool. I would also love to hear his cover of Dylan's, "Down Along The Cove" or the Fagen version of "Drowning In A Sea Of Love".
GKR: Possible title for Katz's new rap label, "Snoop Doggy Katz"?
m.e.
Babs:
You are hot and we should have done it when we had the chance.
B.L.
moray eel: i believe that would be snoop kitty katz...
amanda
B.L. You know, after that *thing* with Charlie and the resulting troubles, I swore to myself I'd never do it again. But day by day, those memories fade away, and I think you made a good point. Same place, same time, next year -- is there gas in the car?

Howdy Y'all: been away for quite a while... withdrew from cybersociety while following the Jayhawks and their post-season flounder... trying to catch up on a month+ of guestbook is somewhat of a marathon in itself...
Still reelin' - Doc
All right, someone fraudulently posted under our names today. Who would do that? Let's see, who took offense to our original post? Hmm. Tsk, Tsk! This place could get really ugly if we start playing that game.
Earthbound: Confidence high? Really? How high? ---okay, over/out.
(GK) Rich---: More authentic field reports are in development.
bob tedde: Uriah Heep Guestbook---http://shitband.com/
lucky henry: Glad you and your flat hat are back.
Beautiful Survivor: Hey, come out of your bunker and play! It's safe as long as you stay away from the Sybilian Despots.
We are currently involved in two major field operations---one on 96th Street and one in central Pennsylvania. We will keep you informed of the latest developments.
Once again, with Lots of(and nothing but) Luv, SD Operatives #237 and #217. Oh yeah, and watch your back---
Field Report#000656114<<>>
Back from the beach....Twenty hours of punching search and scan, and the only Dan I heard was the mention in "Life is a Rock" by Reunion in their stupid song from the '70's.
I dunno, it's kinda fun to watch these boys hitch up their jockstraps. Flame doesn't burn you in cyberspace.
Now TIS--it's the daydreams of a would-be wild boy in his new, not very sporty but beloved bubblecar...a nebbish, really ("this route could be trouble"--the words of a neurotic, not a swashbuckler). Dreams the part about the beautiful survivor as he cruises & sees an accident. I mean really, "I'll brew up some decaf"--not a very dashing pickup line. I think the part about his father is endearing. Wants to show him his great new car. I really like the image he paints of the future--benign technology (for all you Richard Brautigan fans, "all watched over by machines of loving grace") sprinkled with a little danger, kind of the bright side of William Gibson. Same flavor as on Nightfly, in IGY, where the future was seen from the Kennedy years, with only a hint of cynicism.
Lost my post somehow.
Back from the beach...Twenty hours (there & back twice) of search & scan and the only Dan I heard was the mention in "Life is a Rock," that stupid song from the '70's by Reunion.
Damn! Sorry for the repetition. My fingers are hitting all the wrong keys
Just a few words on William Gibson--at the beach I reread Virtual Light. Some Danferences: one character asks another "Where did you get those shoes?" And there's a character named Josie. Does anyone know the music of Richard & Mimi Farina? Gibson also named one chapter "Celebration on a gray day," a reference to one of their albums.
And I can't let Allen Ginsberg's death go by with just one mention. What a poetic giant of the century. He came here last year to read, and though he was weakened by age & diabetes, gave a 1 1/2 hour show--reading, singing, playing his portable organ like a madman. Afterwards, I was fortunate to sit next to him at dinner. We talked about macrobiotics, diabetes, & health, and the wonder of having an ordinary conversation with an immortal will always be with me.
Go back and read Howl, or Kaddish, and you'll know what I mean.

I know you know the graphics to the SD homepage and you know Under The
Banyon Trees, so you also know Rudy aka ewschuttler, the man behind the
graphics ... Now how about this:
I'd love to see the next SD record together with an enhanced CD (audio CD with
multi-media CD-ROM track) done up with Rudygrafix. There's so much you can add
to the artists' work ... as we know form their previous records. Well, that
would add some mew flavours: some pics, some dancam, some clips, whatever.
If you want an example of what I mean, take a look at Canada based Nettwerk
Production's MM offspring
Nettmedia ...
Currently I spend quite some time (er, nights) enjoying the "Decadence"
sampler (see description and demo under same URL as above) that I've had for
over a year now. I just didn't have the hardware (soundcard, speakers) on my system until my kids
started playing and learning at the computer after xmas.
Y'know what: 'm amazed ... Beware that most of Nettwerk's artists are quite
far from an SD fan's central interests, musically speaking. On the other hand,
I've read that one who performed with The Grassy Knoll had before played
with Miles Davis, now we're there again.
So I prepare grounds for the Steely Dan Enhanced CD to come. Or how StAl might
put it: turn my body toward NYC, and send out HAPPY, CREATIVE vibes in this
direction. Then, point myself toward Maui -- and repeat.
The Real SD Operatives #237 and #217: So now that you're doing covert operations, do tell wazzup on 96th Street. Pennsylvania? Please expound for all of us here...
Claus, Are you really sick? No fooling, okay?
lovebob -- nice job on With A Gun. You have a natural 'twang' in your voice -- ever considered singing country?
love,c.l.
Oleander: Excellent words on Ginsberg and on "Trans-I-S". Interesting theory that the pilot of the Kamakiri is more of a dreamer than a doer. Remember Brian Wilson writing all those songs about things that he never did (surfing, drag racing, even student riots)?---Well, Brian's brother went out and did all that shit and look where it got him, one might say. But I'm old fashioned and I like to think that a guy and a girl can still enjoy the simple things, like sharing a cup of decaf at a blood stained wreck site. My vote is that the Snakehips interlude was real.
Which brings up another question: When you go to Springtime at Laughing Pines to re-live parts of your past, do you experience them the way they actually happened or the way you remember them? This is an extremely important distinction.
O-again: How'd you spiritually sustain 20 hours of danless radio? Don't you have a cassette player? You must have used some of that danzine or methadan.
Vaya con Dias, RS
sd operatives--'shitband'is in the eye of the beholder. uriah heep may totally reek, but they are such a cool band. certainly, 'gothic,''over the top,' or even 'overblown and silly,'could be applied to them, and i will even admit they served as the real-life inspiration for rob reiner's 'spinal tap,' but they have some cool tunes. and that great, heavy-handed hammond organ sound is totally righteous, too.
okay, i will freely admit they are a pretty lame band, but don't you ever get a craving for some really bad frozen pizza, or really cheap beer, or mcdonald's hamburgers? c'mon, 'fess up. i bet you have some bands in your collection that would make any rational human being giggle uncontrollably. what are they, 'a flock of seagulls'? 'milli vanilli'? come clean here, operatives!
countdown to LP Friday--tomorrow's LP Friday will be an event of epic proportions. akira is coming in from the western wastelands, and bringing chaos and mahem with him. our kung fu will be very good, but will it be good enough?
peace,

Strapping Moron: Wherever you are, please get better! I'm sending a bunch of get-well thoughts straight to ya on the wind(which is blowing fast) Turn on your Viking radar and be ready, WildMan!
Eric: I've been AWOL for a while but field op.#269 caught up with me. He suggested I archive, so I came upon your delightful post, which you directed at me (wow! I am overwhelmed!) Well, I can relate to what you're saying. I get kind of a creepy feeling sometimes when I hear those classic rock stations. I think I heard Rod Serling's voice narrating my life a few days ago. He said, "Here we have an unsuspecting citizen named RubyBaby, about to get trapped in the '70s. Watch as she starts her car, turns on her radio - she has just entered The Twilight Zone." But I don't lose hope,Eric. (I believe the song, "God gave Rock&Roll to ya") I know there's good stuff out there. Part of the fun is finding it! Experiment at Blockbusters. I read ST.Al & johnboy's responses to you and they're on the right track. About 2017: I never look too hard towards the future, it distorts my vision of the Here&Now. All I know is that if I have someone I can share music with, I'll be happy.
BTW: Nice jewels!

Reports of my demise have been greatly exagerated.
Since I've been away for so long, could someone please tell me when is the new album due.
Thanks guys.

QGB - Palpable Market Value? I knew that was your game...and you
wonder why I won't trade with you, or anyone else for that matter.
My name is Claudio Primadona and I am from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
I am therefore the only one posting to this guestbook with the right to bear the name GAUCHO. If any of you do not understand why, it is clearly because you are another GRINGO PELOTUDO.
If you don't like my style F*#@ YOU. If you like my style F*#@ YOU too.
Gaucho.
F*#@ you! and Wellllllllllllllcome to the Guestbook!
So, if you're really a Gaucho Amigo, why not say something relevant.
Hopefully, your English is as good as your besetment.

The Real SD Operatives #237 and #217: OK, I'll come out and play, as long as I can hide behind your Flaming Shield and use my newly acquired Sybilian Despot repellent spray whenever necessary.
For now, I'll keep sipping green tea and looking forward to those field reports.
Later -or sooner-, Beautiful Survivor
Home: It's Kirschwasser, a cherry liqueur.
Josie, is it really you? Bienvenue...encore une fois. To answer your question the best we know how: Eventually, eventually. . .
Reading the Ginsberg data, the words "White Shroud" popped out -- so was WB alluding to that in Surf and/or Die?
rabbit: haven't had any cravings for cheap beer/frozen pizza/Mickey D burgers for awhile, but there is vinyl deep in the closet upstairs that makes me say "What was I thinking?" Then I recall the lady from the past whose memory is inseparable from the music, and it comes back to me. Hey, they seemed like a good idea at the time. . .
Oleander: 20 hours without? There, there, it'll be all right. . .however, your fevered brain came up with an interesting analysis of TIS.
WOW! Is this the Jackson Browne Home Site? If it is, I mean, if it is, it´s good, because I think Jackson is a real person. No sunglasses and no private jet.
I thought I was sick for a while but my doctors are telling me it´s only in my head.
RUBY, are you with me baby?

Hell I forgot,

B.L. -- delaying gratification builds strong character
PETE: thanks for the airtime! The hi harmony is a little flat on the words "With A Gun", but otherwise it sounded better than I remmembered it, low fidelity and all!. Not bad for a song we only performed 4 times! (that was #3). Drew sure did an awsome jod with it. Where is he these days? The boys and I are once again attempting to make the New Yawk thang work. I'll e-mail you directly as soon as i get a bead on June.
Connie Lee:Thanks, I think. I sang on a country demo for a friend once The 'revue' from Nashville was: .."whoever's singin' has a good voice...fer rock-n-roll. I sure as hell can't do anything with him......
Was that really Josie? I suspect otherwise.
SoCal Dan Fans: The Steely Damned performs this Sunday at the Catamaran in Pacific Beach (San Diego) For info call us at (619) 558-1966
If you make it to the show, please explain to me why the newly aquired "King Of The World" garners considerably more audience response than the also newly added "New Frontier"
lovebob
I can't wait for the next tour. I've been thinking about what I'd like to hear. If it doesn't wig you out too much, given the fact that there is no tour planned "as far as I know", I'd like to whip it on you. I'll wait to gauge the sentiments, though.
I've already let the cat out of the bag in previously mentioning that Show Biz Kids and Jack of Speed would make a great 1-2 opener.
maj.
Clas:
Glad to hear you're okay. I almost had to give up my banjo.
R.O.C.K.
Hal- find one person I've ever SOLD a Dan piece to!!!! I only trade or buy- all of my stuff will be going to my daughter in 30 or so years- who knows she'll probably sell it in a garage sale!!! Man you are sooooooooooooooo paranoid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway that was a pretty weak comeback!(although I know I'm looking for trouble now) But you are right- my point was'nt expressed well; I was simply pointing out that while YOU are knowingly dealing in, well- stolen material- my interests are primarily in open market material. By the way- so it's ok for you and your buddy to steal and make use of the material for your own personal gain and yet your so paranoid and accusatory about me or anyone else("thats why I don't trade w/ anybody")!!!!! Again find even one person or entity that I have EVER sold or disseminated for financial gain any SD material and I'll eat my hat all day long at your feet!!- the reality is you can't - and you never will- you've got the wrong guy on that score Hal AKA Kinky. Hal why are you even wallowing in this topic all over again- get over it. Q PS See you at Roseland, on the next Dan stop- I'll be happy to buy you a beer; I think we both need one.
YourGoldKeith :
My english is pretty fine.
Allow me to submit to you that relevance is in the eye of the bee holder. When you go to the bathroom, do you hold a bee. (El mio es chico pero funciona)

Bob: I thought the sound byte of With A Gun could have been better, it just turned out a little weird in AU. It makes me want to do it all over again. Drew and Cornelius Bumpus leave to go on the road tomorrow with Boz Scaggs, they'll be touring on and off throughout the summer.
Morey Eel: Nice choices for the sound bytes, I'd like to put those up too. In the meantime, I seemed to have lost Deacatur Mountain but am considering adding Ghost of Hipness, what do you think? How about some Rosa Vela cuts (Tonto), or is she too cheesy?
You want relevant material. You asked for it!!
But now you will have to kiss my ass and recognize the LATINO superiority.

URIAH HEEP? Subliminal artwork? I done the rancher's daughter? (:|)
MajorDUDE: I heartily agree concerning 1)Show Biz Kids 2)Jack of Speed! What an AWSOME opening!!
But I've had this feeling ever since the last tour, that Donald doesn't want to do Show Biz Kids! I truly believe Walter would do it in a heartbeat, but it seems to me that Donald would rather chew on his saddle shoes than do that number. Exactly why, I can't say...
PS-I've always wanted a truck. Any suggestions? Keep in mind I'm only 5'2", OK?

I heard a Larry Carlton song on the radio last nite, it was titled somthing about "LA Nights" or somthing similar. Anyway, I loved it and was wondering what recommendations you all might have relating to Carlton's solo material in the same vein as the aforementioned song. I can't stand Carlton's glazed over christian crap he does now.

Hey Gaucho,
Beaner! da da da da da da Beaner!
remember the song we wrote?
Pete: Yeah, I think Rosie would be a great addition to your site. In fact, I believe that you should devote two entire pages to Ms. Vela.
Page One could have some of her sound "bytes":
1. Tonto
2. Magic Smile
3. Interlude
4. Fool's Paradise
Page Two could have some of her gastronomical "bites":
1. Her Secret Recipe for Green Bean Casserole
2. 101 Ways to Use Turkey Leftovers
3. The Worlds Best Cheese and Macaroni with Cheese, Cheese and More Cheese
4. And of course, the mandatory diet secret or two.
Honestly Pete, your site keeps getting better and better. I'm sorry if we started out on the wrong foot. Have you ever considered going to .wav files? IMHO they sound better.

The Dreaded Moray Eel
Roy--well, maybe he & snakehips did do it in the Kama, but sometimes it's way BETTER in daydream than in reality...speaking of which, I think if Springtime's VR, which I assume, it's just like punching replay on the CD player--but each time you replay it, you're a different person (you know, you never step in the same river twice etc.), so you experience it differently. Does that adequately obfuscate the existential metadynamic?
Thank you all for your sympathy for my Danless audio hours. I have always depended on the kindness of strangers. I'd like to say it was hell, but a) I love to drive, b) I know a lot of Dantunes and c) I sing loud in the car when nobody else is there.
Clas--look, are you really ok? what did they think was on your kidney? I've searched my medical books and I can't find any tumor that could be on the kidney and in the mind. Please advise.

OLEANDER! Are you interested? God help you;
I had the flu a couple of months ago. It was a drag, Ruby told me to eat (?) chicken soup, but I did´nt. So, I felt better after a week or so and started to work again. But I felt very tired and low, walking the dog was a real piss, if you know what I mean. So I went to my doctor, one of them maybe I should say, I have one for every part of my body. And one for the entire body. I went to the last one here. I gave an urinsample, and it was something wrong wrong there, too much of white- and too much of red. And he pushed (?) on my body and he said it could be that my right kidney was swollen and he said that I should see another doc (!) to see if it was something dangerous. Well, I started to think that I was dying, I got my self drunk and I felt very sorry for myself. When I sobered up I went to my schrink and she told me that I was a pitiful motherfucker who could not handle any crisis in life without getting drunk. And I agree with her. So, I feel well again and I believe that I should not drink anymore. Thats it.
RUBY; My Baby, I email you soon. And I heard you the another night, we had a storm here in Sweden.
And something good has happened here I think, have´nt had sternum pains for weeks.
I sure hope this is the Medical Question Guest Book. Are you with me doctor?
Clas
Hell, I almost forgot;
StAl: You wrote " But, since I don't have the Dead Kings money.... ", it should be " But, since I don't have the Dead Kings money..." Three dots, not two, not five or seven. Three dots GODDAMN IT!
The strapping...
boblovesbob: where were you tonite, when we needed you most?
"....at first i was afraid, i was petrified....."
agggghhhhh! Save me from that crap!
I'm am being so glad that something is not wrong wrong with you. It is much harder to imposter a dead men. the strap on...
You're Psyco is right: Don't get all hoodily-goodily over every little ClasPoster; Man, I´m sorry, but you have to count your dots. I have done it and it´s something wrong there. And your english: to imposter a dead MAN. What is a men?
Amen?
Shit, I hope those guys comes up with a new CD soon. I got to work, I can´t sit here and count dots.
Clas: nice to see you back. stay away from the boose.
I've read the same intervue with Georg Wadenius in a swedish magazine and there is an interesting part that goes like this:
"Fagen ville att jag skulle spela egna grejor, men jag ville liratyp Larry Carltons original-solon eftersom jag tyckte de var en del av själva låtarna. Till plattan insisterade han dock att jag skulle spela egna solon, vilket jag också gjorde."
For the few of you who cant read swedish a summary gives that for the tour GW insisted to do the solos very close to the originals (i.e. Larry Carlton on KC) because he thought that the solos are an important part of the songs - but for the record (AiA) Fagen insisted that GW should add his own touch to the solos.
Well, whats the fuzz? To me it sounds like that they were doin more in the studio than just makin´it look like ONE concert (the audience mixing).What GW actually says is that they were doing a loot of dubbing.
LARS; You know how a sleepstone shall be dragen.
Clas
Latino superiority? A can't think any two other words that denote a greater contradiction of terms.
Clas: glad you're feeling better, I thought I might be running out of punching bags.
Ruby: Still ready to do laundry. I'll even bring my version of DF's RubyBaby without his vocals so I can serenade you!
Also, about Show Biz Kids, might they feel a little hypocritical singing that one, now?
Edd Cote: I am wondering, I seriously asked for your thoughts on "Monkey in Your Soul" after our little dissection freak scare, since you said that for you it was fun. (YGK, the asshole, told me "to learn something") I asked out of genuine interest and yet no reply.
Pplease excuse my pissiness, but what's up?
Dr. Mu: Agent #0.25 has informed that you are MIA, he even showed me his Steely Dan Lyrics decoder ring. Got one?
Under sea by rail, Paul C.
R.O.C.K. what do you think? Has Clas gotten enough sympathy for
his fake illness? I say turn up the butane, and let's flame!
PPPAUL, thanks.
Has anyone heard what´s up with Craig Doerge? I have´nt seen him with Jackson since he was here 1986 to play on a Nicaragua Festivitas. And Russ Kunkel? Rosemary Butler? What the hell...
RUBY; you want a truck? Me and some friends here was looking in a brochure the other day, from the Car Fair that´s going on here in Stockholm now. And it was a picture on a truck... I have lost the name... it was Schwarzkopf who had it in the Gulf war. It was named after a bug... sorry, I get back to to you. But it was a big one, I guess you could sit on Manhattans phonebook. Shit, forget the whole thing.
Dr MU; now I know what you mean, "found my peppar". The swedish chef! Ha ha.
But I know what´s Stanley Clark is doing nowdays.
See you
StAl: same thing every time, constantly switching between computer hell
and computer heaven. You'll get over your email malfunction some time ..
PeteFogel: thanks for them soundBytes! Keep it coming ...
Clas: what kind of booze did you use to fall into this emotional hole?
Russian Vodka? Probably not The Fine Columbian? When will you be restored
to heat up these white nights again? We count on you ....
Hey Everyone,
Just pop on to say hello, it's been awhile. Revolution?
Ruby...when it comes to trucks the bigger the better...don't worry you can always get a booster.
Later
DCB
George man; Have`nt you noticed that I´m back? Clear, crisp and strong. (it was a mix; vodka, beer and at the end; Armanis)
RUBYHONEYCOMB! From very reliable sources, the name of the truck is Hummer. Go get it.
I have a little game we could play while we are waiting for mr Brownes next;
From which song is this line;
"He´s gonna tell you about his uncle Neddy, killed in a barfight, with a pair of marines and a sailor yes..."
The first one wins a night with me and my dog in the swedish wilderness, wintertime. Ruby?
Clas: Uncle Neddy is from "The Blues" by Randy Newman with help from Paul Simon.
Now answer me this: What guitarist(s) played on albums for Randy Newman and Steely Dan?
Also.....Should you really be criticizing the propriety of other people's dots when you spell "shrink" with a c?
glad you're 'back on your feet again'
Just wondering why I watch this site... I guess it's because of the vacuum created by such little real news of our boys...
Thanks RoyScam, you saved me! Now you get to spend a night with Clas! HaHaHa!! And a Great Dane who apparently hogs the bed. Have fun!
CLAS: You know I can't answer trivia! That's why I married an engineer. They know every detail about every thing. You know,you scared the bloody #@%! out of me, and for that, AbbaBaby, you must PAY!
PPPaul: Hypocritical about doing ShowBizKids? Why? They could always just smile big when they sing "You know,they don't give a Fuck about anybody else!"
And I wish I had a nickle for every time someone promised to help me with the laundry...I could by a fleet of trucks! Let's just take the laundry to the laundromat with the Wash&Fold service and go on a picnic. And don't you DARE bring Ruby Baby without Donald's vocals!
As a matter of fact, bring Donald.
RubyBaby
Edd: Did you do an analysis of "Monkey?" I must've missed it if you did...please continue on...
PPPaul: No disrepect intented, bro. I seem to recall that you were flaming the concept of Edd's analysis as something meaningless on this board, which I don't consider meaningless. If you know music, or music theory, you MAY find it interesting. If you don't, don't sweat it - it's no big deal - it doesn't say anything about who you are as an individual. However, for those of us who do understand music theory/analysis, and haven't taken the time to break down SD works theoretically, it is interesting.
peace,
YGK
Ruby, Sorry about grabbing the trivia question sweepstakes; it was a knee-jerk Pavlovian response, like a wolf jumping on a pork chop.
A Dane, a Swede and a Baltic freeze; I think that vacation package was intended for one of the distaff danophiles. I demand a recount.
ROY SCAM; Wellcome! Let´s say january -98, in Lappland. (Larry Carlton, and mr Porcaro on drums!)
RUBY; I pay anything, anything. I´m sorry my little honeycomb.
Now, next question RUBY, one more chance and this time we go to Hawaii;
"Hate New York City, it´s cold and it´s damp, let´s leave Chicago to the eskimoes..."
C.
"... that town is a little bit too rugged, for you and me, you bad girl".
Ruby. Act fast. Here's a hint: It's warmer than Sweden and and has a lot of short people. You can have the dog weekend too.
Walter/Donald:
I want to play trumpet on your next tour. I play W/ "The Steely Damned" in San Diego. Youy guys use way to many saxes. They polish the Battle Apple, Remember these 4 words "Get Me On It"
Dillman

This isn't directly Dan-related and it's just my opinion but Laura Nyro was one of the best songwriters ever. When she was about 19 she wrote"And when I die, and when I'm dead and gone, there'll be one child born in our world to carry on."
That line will outlive her by decades, maybe centuries. God bless her.
R.I.P. 1948-1997
RoyScam: You might as well answer that one,too, cause I don't know it! But it sounds familiar...
Hey, don't be afraid of the Nordic winters. Trust me, I come from a long line of Swedes. If there's one thing they know how to do, it's to keep warm.
But CLAS, I finally got "your voice on my machine was more alive than I was" - Surf and/or Die by Mr. Walter Becker. Does that count, babe? I won't make you pay anymore because no one could make you pay more than you do yourself. Ease up, OK?
ruby baby
Roy man, you & I are on the same wavelength! I dug Laura Nyro. Saw her once lo these many reeled-in yrs in Ann Arbor. NPR did a story on her Sat. & played "Save the Country." Brought it all back.
Listen Clas, I love LA too, but enough already about Randy Newman...though it's interesting that he shares a hat fetish ("You can leave your hat on") with Dylan ("Leopardskin pillbox hat") and the Dan ("The fez").
Didn't somebody a while back ask what they say at the end of "Only a fool...?" It's a very hacked-up "Solamente un tonto diria eso"--only a fool would say that. Which the Pseudogaucho could have told us sin problema.
RUBYHONEY; Everything you say counts baby!
If not Newman, what about this;
"Please won´t you sing me a tune that will bring me, right into the sky..."?
Clas
Hell, I almost forgot;
Blood Sweat and Tears made a version of that song. It was cool. David Clayton Thomas on vocals.
Here is a harder one;
"... she told me she was late for the Express..."
C
Roy. Scam I agree with you completely about Laura Nyro. Her passing is a great loss to the music world. Saturday morning a local radio station played a tribute to her. I never realized the breath of her influence. For thoses who are still in the dark, she wrote for the 5th Demension, Blood Sweat and Tears, Barbra Stiesand among many others. There is a excellent obituary (if an obit can be excellent) in this week's US News and World report. Just an example of how amazing she was, she wrote BST's "When I Die" when she was only 18.
Peace,
DCB
DEE CON; Only 18! She must have been only 45 years old when she died?
C.
She was 49.
Ya gotta wonder who the designated child is...
hey... this weekend, i managed to snag a copy of the "snowbound" single with "big noise, new york" on the b-side... is this considered a rarity? just wondering, b/c i have no idea... i bought it for $1 at a local record store's tent sale...
amanda
A huge chunk of computer code I wrote last week just got wiped out by somebody who wrote over the file. Can you guess why Steely Dan came to mind?
Yellow jag and gladstone bag.
DanNut...uh, was it because the code they overwrote was something that enabled you to identify any Dan phrase only by the first letter of each word?
SIRTTSA
Fool, good thought but I was thiinking of the 2nd arrangement.
DanNut: try again.....SIRTTSA......then hit enter
Hey Ruby, your husband really drive trains? you think he can get me a deal on one of those puffy striped hats?
mW
Hey Fool - I think DanNut is much more worthy of your handle. Some
people just don't get it.
Once again;
"... she told me she was late for the Express...?
RUBY my sweaziest little honeycomb, today I have decided to start our first class in swedish words.
foto = photo
kamera = camera
bil = car
Keep that in mind.

Damned The Steely Damned. Damned if they don't manage to get a chilled spine reaction out of me every time they do Pretzel Logic, Josie, DTMA or Gaucho, to name a few. It's not just that they make The Wait easier to endure. It's also that there's nothing quite like standing this close to Peg live...and realizing you're dancing to it. And, it's also hearing This All Too Mobile Home performed, and very well at that. Then, of course, there's Haitian Divorce...
Last Sunday was no different. It always seems impossible to me that half of San Diego isn't trying to get into the venue. The worst part is witnessing the all-too-often merely perfunctory, knee-jerk audience response. Though I'm usually not alone in clapping (except perhaps after some solos), I don't really always want to be the first, the last and the loudest.
BOB: RE: KOTW and New Frontier: What's not to like? Audience appeared to react more to the former, but the latter seemed like more fun, what with the improvised quasi-rehearsals immediately following it (those were improvised, weren't they?!). I would have been interested in having you try the harmonica yourself.
Why KOTW, you ask? Some speculations: Lots of early-Dan sympathizers, whether for rock sensibility or for nostalgia. Then there's (maybe ironically, as an explanation, given the early rock lean) the distinctive synthesizer sound in KOTW. Or...KOTW has the status of appearing on Steely Dan Gold; it's something a self-respecting DanFan - one "who knows more than just the hits," - "ought" to like.
Meanwhile, New Frontier is D's, strictly speaking. And, although I remember it getting considerable air play, and liking it right away, at the risk of sounding even more pompous, it should perhaps be reckoned as simply less memorable or interesting musically than KOTW, which of course is not to say less likable.
Yeah! I´m with on that one! People makes a lot of noice hear. To me it seems like some of them MUST write on this site, even if they don´t have anything to say. Fucking incredible. I hate it. Sometimes I feel like I must give up all this shit but I have decided this; if people on this site do their things right, three dots, spell right and only make one (1) !-signe after whatever, or let´s say; when I see that everything is OK, then I can quit. I hope it will be while I´m still on top.

Hey major dudes, I was just laying in bed last night listening to the song and wondered, however belatedly, if there was such a guest board.... I thought I was crazy, and then I logged on. the Roman cult lives. I'd like to talk about the men in the trees.
Amanda : I love your name.
Lo Clas : one !, three ... If you have that much spare time I suggest you masturbate.
StAl : I love you man. Yo mah main man.
DocKelly : Sorry due but it's true. I have a "well connected" friend at BMG and he showed me the promo sheet. The name of the album has not been relesead, knowing these guys, they themselves probably don't know yet. The label appeards as "Revolution" and the date of release is definetly May 1998. I myself think that all these rumors about them recording now are bull.
Chech and Chong ; No
Rudy : Not really, but it is with the left one indeed that I perform my most sacred daily routine.
PPPaulCCC : WWWould you care to explain...
Amanda : I love your name.
Gaucho Chanta
Aye caramba! Que pasa, gaucho, mi amigo? Ud. es un poco loco, si? Como un "Clas", pero de america latina? Digame!
dear gaucho amigo,
since BMG doesn't distribute Giant or Revolution, it seems very unlikely they would be privy to any inside info regarding the new album.
when is the album coming out?
when is the tour?
muchas gracias, gaucho amigo...
amanda
Senor Roberto Teddeo: Yo te pregunto: Dicks? Digame que si!
Someone mentioned KOTW up there, and that reminded me: I still need to hear the live version. Anybody out there willing to work something out? Favor de??
Min O' World: Down boy, down! Hey, I asked my husband if he could get you one of those puffy, striped hats. He's resourceful, so of course he can! But he said he needs to know the measurement of your little pin head.
You know, I'm pretty good with a needle & thread. I'll make one for you. How about if I come over and measure your head? I'm not as grouchy as my SO.

Now, let me deal with the "cholos"

I think you spanish suck so you perhaps the "loco" or perhaps you the "dickhead".
the man alone with time to kill and a negative IQ.
BMG owns "Revolution", ok. That and 200 other labels such as Arista, Ariola, RCA & Windham Hill. It is apparent that YOU are the one that does not know shit about the Bertelsmann group. So next time do some research before you come to me with bullshit and end up as a ridiculous ignorant shrimp.
If there are other moleheads out there that do not believe me you can all thrust big eggplants up your aholes or you can stroll to 1540 Broadway and ask for an appointment with Mike Dorneman.
Gaucho: mooch oh grassy ass! as we say it here at the ranch... while I don't like the idea of waiting until May '98 at least now there is some finite notion of a release date... BTW, eggplant?

hello one and all! hello fagen, hello becker, ah..too much hello.
i didn't bother about steely dan at first, but till i hear
their 1972 hit "do it again", i starting know about the dan.
they playing everything and they hire top sessionist from
larry carlton, skunk, eagles tim schmidt etc. and they're genious!!!!
even a british band super furry animals take a part of their
song "show biz kids".anyway, any dan fans agree with me please e-mail
me. well, they do it again. and i wonder if BECK samples their
song, wouldn't it be nice?. good luck to him.
cheers.

GAUCHO; Sparetime? Masturbate? Hell, that reminds me, got to go, I´m late for my masturbationclass, I don´t want them to begin before I come. (maniana ya veres no travacho)
C.
PS It seems like nobody cares which song I am asking for, but, for the record; it is a song Fagen did live a couple of years ago, I think the name of the blues is "I got news for you mama".
Any word on a band named Schlong? They do what has been described as an "...their amped up version of the Steely Dan classic "Kid Charlemagne."
We now return you to enlightened discourse already in progress.
No es posible, estamos, como se dice "booked" (reservamos?). Donde es mi lapice amarillo. Esta en la biblioteca?

I don't see what was so great about Alan Ginsberg. He seemed like a sick fuck to me. See the following:
The TV Networks fawned over his so-called legacy, yet they ignored the darker aspects of that sexual milieu, ignoring
Ginsberg's membership in the North American Man-Boy Love Association
(NAMBLA), which supports the repeal of age of consent laws and advocates
"consensual" sexual relations between men and young boys. Ginsberg defended
his affiliation: "I'm in NAMBLA because I love boys too -- everybody does, who
has a little humanity."
And although reporters found Ginsberg's art and sexuality honest and
courageous, they weren't courageous enough to quote the most revealing
examples, like this excerpt from Ginsberg's "Come All Ye Brave Boys:" "Come
heroic half naked young studs, that drive automobiles through vaginal blood/Turn
over spread your strong legs like a lass, I'll show you the thrill to be jived up the
ass,/Come sweet delicate strong minded men, I'll take you through graveyards and
kiss you again."
Gaucho Amigo: 1540 Broadway, is that at 41st or 47th? Mike Dorneman - forgive my ignorance - you fabulously linked Danfan - but what is Mike's Title? And will Mike REALLY meet us if we show up?
Also, you say the release date is May 1998. Ok. Now, if they're not
recording now, and assuming that they are finished recording, why don't they release it earlier?
Questions abound in my head.
Thanx, Amigo,
YGK
dear gaucho amigo,
sorry, wrong again. Revolution is not owned by BMG, it's owned by Irving Azoff and distributed by Warner Bros. want to try again? this may 1998 stuff is totally bogus.
Ruby, Ya know between the "Ego-Page" remark and my "Little Pin Head" I'm beginning to wonder if your SO *is* getting enough fiber in his diet...tell him I send a big hug...no hard feelings, we do, afterall, have to share this oversized irrigation ditch we call the valley...speaking of which Peter Erskine of the SD '93 tour will be at Fresno State Sat. 4/26 and Chuck Findley will be in Visalia Sun. 5/3...
Major: Congrats on you entry in Hoops! Digest...I was 1 of the 3...
Kent
I gotta agree, Ginsberg had some pretty offensive ideas... So does
Burroughs... I mean, "Naked Lunch" is one of the most depraved books ever
written. Don+Walt were nonetheless influenced by these guys, albeit
as grist for their irony mill, i.e. "Everyone's Gone to the Movies",
Soul Ram, etc.
Ginsberg's "Howl" is the definitive beat verse, and Don+Walt's
trove of ironic and sublime pop tunes is the beat attitude
all dressed up nicely for the general public's consumption.
CLAS: Which song was it, babe? I just did not know, so I waited to see if somebody else did. I care! Hey, do you think Book of Liars is the story of Walter's childhood? Give me some more words. How do you spell hejdo? That's goodbye in Swedish, you know.
Hi, MinorWorld! I'll tell him. I think he's just tired of the engineer jokes. And I'll add some bran, he'll never know!
KinkySoNSo: someone mentioned depraved books so I thought I'd ask you something. What would you do if one of your kids had to do a book report and you found The Naked Lunch in their backpack? Sometimes people who don't have kids have some good ideas. I'm interested in your thoughts about that.
RubyBaby
amorBob: la femme fatale cherchez la potage. (? - yo no habla ingles...or french for that matter.)
Ruby: Do you have anything to report on how the sound system of the "truck in question" sounded with Dan pumping through it?
Oh Ruby, I added Monkey right after Jack of Speed. that takes us into the first "new" song.
minahW: Thanks. That explains the other one.
Caught a clip of Boz Scaggs doing a live rendition of Lido. was that jeff Porcaro on drums? Looked like around 1977. It was on 8track flashback on vh1 -- the san francisco sound.
speaking of Boz, anyone have a schedule of his tour dates. I gotta see him, especially if Zingg and Bump are with him.
maj.
Clas - Qued tris pro quo qui niet entenderum
YGK - I never said they were done recording, only that I didn't think they were recording now (yet).
the man alone - I guess I am the ignorant shrimp after all. Further checking proved you right and I appologize for wrongly accusing you of being misinformed. You can take that eggplant off your butt.
I still hold the date to be true. The info comes from Latin America where BMG does distribute Revolution.
Amanda - It doesn't make much sense if you translate.
Bravo, Sir Jon. RE: Release date speculation- we want "Art" or at least "Art Crimes", not "product". Let's just let the artists sit back and let it unfold......then we can start the heavy breathing @ THE TOUR!
Gaucho: I stand corrected... mooch ass grassy ass! Upon further reflection, May 1998 seems to make sense...
I'm sure our boyz needed a vacation from the music business following the Art Crimes tour... as such, I don't believe there has been enough time to write and polish lyrics and music for an entire CD recorded at current play-lengths, not to mention making a deal with some mega-distribution conglomerate... In addition, having witnessed their 3 most recent tours, I'm convinced they will want to again tour the open-air amphitheater circuit... Let's face it, our boyz don't want to hit the road again without having a significant amount of new material to show off 'cause then they could be criticized by the masses as being has-beens... (we all know they're not) It makes sense to promote a new album with a tour that's named after the album... If the new album was released in December (in time for xmas) then there would be too much time before the beginning of the promotional tour requiring good, warm weather... May 1998 would just about be long enough to be serious about writing & arranging 10+ songs, recording and producing those songs, preparing graphics, etc...
Just my 2 cents...
BTW, William Burroughs lives in the town below the Dude Ranch I reside in... It's my understanding (I heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend) that he is up to his usual tricks... (pun intended!)
Later - Doc
Hey B.L. -- now we dolly back, now we fade to black...

GAUCHO; Please, say it english, I don´t do spanish. Ok, I do spanish kissing, but that´s another story. Apropos kissing,
RUBY; my dearest, most squeezie little sugarpie, did´nt I tell wich song it was? Or, wich song do you mean? "Please wont you sing me a tune that will bring me right into the sky..." that was early Chicago, Robert Lamm wrote it, A Hit By Varese. Robert Lamm was one of my first idols, now he´s fat and got knew teeth and does crapmusic. That´s a shame.
So baby, this is your last chance to get to Hawaii;
"Driving down the country beam, mother earth is nowhere now it seems..." or "Going where the orange sun never dies..."?
Clas
Doc Kelley/Gaucho: That May 1998 sounds logical to me as well, for the reasons you mention. It has been my observation that D & W have always taken the time to get it just right, and if that means waiting at least another year to hear the finished product, then so be it in my opinion. The good stuff is always worth waiting for, is it not?

Doc:
Why don't the boys bring back the NY Rock & Soul Review for the summer tour? They'd only have to do a couple of Steely Dan songs and wouldn't piss off the fans. And we could get Phoebe Snow, Boz Scaggs, Michael McDonald, and some classic Soul guy as a bonus. And maybe it would give them a creative boost, since it seems like they're in an artistic funk from the lackluster sound of their new stuff Cash Island and Wet Side Story. Jack of Speed is okay, but not nearly up to the quality of any of their previous work. I'd rather have the Aja and Gaucho style of Steely Dan, where they had a cool jazz & soul attitude to their music that moves the gut and heart, rather than the Kamakiriad and Whack style of Steely Dan, where the attitude is gone. That new stuff is too cerebral, and seems to be all based on tons of what-they-consider-to-be-clever lyrics, and the music is just forgettable background for this whacked out verbage. If they want to go nuts with tons of words, why don't they write poetry or something or do a collaboration with Sting. God knows how pretentious he's become and has had to rely on lyrics sinces he's run out of memorable melodies and chorus. "Let Your Soul Be Your Pilot?!!!" What the hell is that??!! What's the fun of singing along with crap like "Springtime" and "swing out to lake nostalgia?" What the hell is that? Or "Down At The Bottom"? The only decent non-Steely Dan songs you can sing along with in the car is "IGY" , "Century's End" and "Junkie Girl." I'm not optimistic about this new album. It seems like they're only writing songs about what it's like to be millionaires with fancy recording studios and lots of time to read Sci-fi books and playing around on the internet. And who cares about that? When they used to sing "I cried when I wrote this song, sue me if I play too long," I used to believe it was true. Based on the new stuff, we're the ones who are doing all the crying." Bring back the New York Rock and Soul Review this summer. At least that music means something. And I'm sure that the boys pensions are now fully funded after the past tours and muzak royalties, that they can just start caring about the music again.

ROCK--you myopic slug, if we all scrutinized each and every nuance of every artist we experienced, nobody would like anybody--you couldn't even like Pat Boone anymore, for example. NAMBLA makes me want to warm up my blowtorch and take it to its members (pun intended), but Ginsberg was an infinity more than that. He did some of the most soaring and revolutionary poetic work of the century, and if he was flawed, well, you ain't? BTW, in your quote, there is no imperative to interpret "young studs" as prepubescent boys; the "vaginal blood" reference is a metaphor (this is a poet, after all) which might refer to birth as well as to menstruation. As for the lifestyle, that's a door I'd rather not open too far (cf. Randy Shilts' "And The Band Played On," or Rechy's "City of Night" for graphic details), but assfucking is not a terribly esoteric erotic practice in heterosexuals either. At any rate, a chacun son gout--including you.
O Doubting One--Kama and 11TOW aren't perfect (see above), but I love their foibles as I do their shining moments. And "Down in the bottom" is one of my faves!
Personally, I think they should do an all-jazz tour with, say, Joshua Redman, Marcus Roberts (double keyboards!), Betty Carter on vocals, and Branford Marsalis' drummer, Tane whatzit.
Clas--re medical questions--I haven't wanted to do this, especially with all these musicians and technoheads around, but I'm coming out here and now--I'm a doctor, the kind for your whole bod, and you can ask me anytime. PS, I'd say it's definitely a good idea to back away from the bottle.
Another southpaw,
Doubting T: While I did not see the New York Rock & Soul Review show I kinda had the impression it was a tour put together at the last minute by somebody (maybe Donald, I don't know...) like a talent agent that had several artists without a current gig... all relatively big names... most of the songs could be played by the musicians involved with 2 or 3 practices... tops! Regarding the new songs unveiled during the Art Crimes tour, yeah, they didn't jump right out and grab me either... but by the 3rd show, they started sounding better, and, if I had a digital, studio copy of them, I suspect that I would hear completely different songs... ya know, 11 Tracks of Whack took several listens before I started appreciating it... it's got several different layers of consciousness to it requiring multiple listens just to become aware of their presence, much less comprehend them. My point? I'm not too sure... I would assume they compose individually (and as a team)like most people do, they try something then after listening to it if they think they can improve upon it then they do so... the more iterations of this process that a song endures, the better it becomes... (ONE HOPES!) Now, all we have to do is trust that their studio-based creativity TEAM standards have not changed except, perhaps, to have evolved to a higher state of being... OK?
Now, if they could pull together a world class group of musicians similar to the NYR&S review in time to get scheduled in the summer venues, MORE POWER TO THEM UNLESS IT IS GOING TO TAKE VALUABLE TIME AWAY FROM WORKING ON THE NEXT ALBUM!!!
May 1998... hmm. I hate waiting for the goods.
In the end, some will love the new material and others will
not. It is hilarious seeing folks place their criticisms of
recent works here. Are you merely exercising your pointless
fingers? Your whining about what will or won't be "acceptable"
as NewDan is rather gauche. Why not think of WB&DFs art as a
continually evolving "piece."
Does everyone actually recall why the lads stopped touring,
and ultimately postponed their joint music-making? Or who the
Dan IS at core? They compose what turns them on. They are prime
examples of underdogs that have won. And most importantly, they
have(out on a limb here) single-handedly kept a vein of American
music open for perusal.
So, what are the pundits looking for anyway? Maybe W&D should go
into the studio(s) and chart some new tunes that are extremely
subtle variations on several Scam/Aja/Gaucho cuts. Then spoon feed
the shit to those who can't break out of their nostalgic fuckin'
holes. Your unflattering remarks about the solo cuts and the unveiled
stuff from '96 make me wish they'd release only those cuts on an EP
so maybe you'd get off the bus.
To me, we're lucky that W&D continue to have a common vision
about what needs to be said musically. And I can't wait for the
next "statement." I am comfortable adapting to any new twist they
summon.
C'mon out and experience the Dan as they pave yet another
avenue in their continuum.

Hey Now!
I've changed the guestbook format around a bit. I've placed this guestbook in tables. Hopefully this will stop some of the bugs that a few of you were reporting?
I was wondering if could enlist your assistance? I have small dilemma. You see I just bought my very first boat. She's an absolutely pristine 1962 Fairliner Cabin Cruiser. A 27 foot wooden boat that is in desperate need of a name. That's where I need your help.
I'm drawing a bit of a blank. Song titles are great -- "Home at Last" seems to be one my significant other can deal with, but I know there are quite a few nuggets buried in those songs. Your assistance would be much appreciated. I pick it up next Friday. Times a wastin'!
Since my fiance' digs SD she'll be fairly receptive to suggestions. I already tried the Grateful Dead angle on her. She didn't think "Bertha" or "Uncles Johns Boat" were very good ideas...
Three Dots for Clas
Peace
StAl
R O C K; I can hear that you are a moral eel. Did´nt I tell you not to confuse the masterpiece with the master? And what happends if you learned to know that mr Becker spent time in jail for having sex and sharing drugs with a fourteen year old girl, in company with a Eaglebrother? Would you burn Steely Dan records? (for those who think this is a terrible thing to say, I did´nt say he did, but if the roumors are true? We havent been shy to discuss Jackson Brownes beating of a woman, have we?)
OLEANDER; You are still growing, wow, a real doc! I use to think of myself as a sober alcoholic, but in the last couple of years I can´t believe that is true anymore. So I have decided to join the AA, and that feels good. Stay around, I got lots of questions.
StAl: I could cut out the name in plastic folie and send it to you. That´s what I do for a living. And another thing, you have created a monster, you can sail awy and leave this GuestBook, it will live its own life from now.
Clas
earthbound- you have so eloquently expressed exactly the way i feel about steely dan music as it is, was, and will be. perhaps i'm open because i haven't been listening to the same music from these guys for twenty years, or perhaps i am one of (seemingly) few who prefer new and different to more of the same. sure i may not like it as much as what's already around, but i probably will, and even if i don't, i will always have the music that i have now to satisfy me. so there. you said it better... oh well.
amanda
sorry, it should be "beating a woman".
AMANDA! Go to bed, at once!
in the corner of the eastern sky,

PS Ruby, during the night, you´re in charge. Count the dots!
Captain St!
The first and probably too obvious name that comes to mind is True Companion. here's some others.
The Nightfly, Peg, Josie, Gretchin (sp), Doctor Wu, Aja, hell any Aja title 'cept I Got The News, Maxine (i like that one), Gold Teeth, Gold Teeth 2, Gold Teeth 3, Etc., Rose Darling (i like that one too!) Chain Lightning, Kid Charlemagne ( or just The Charlemagne) or how about Daddy Don't Live In That New York City No More, and if the length of that one didn't scare ya off, howsabout...The Stupid Face, The Glasses And The Gun ( I reeeealy like that one !) If you're paying by the letter then consider FEZ ("THE" optional) and then there's Kinky So-n-So, if you can divorce it from any personal feelings the name may have caused you in the recent past. Bodhisatva might make a great ice breaker between you and your sea faring neighbors. and on that line how about an Anitonism such as Mr. Whatever, or HMS Li'l Pretty One.
And the list goes on ...(This All Too) Mobile Home, Thru With Buzz, Snake Mary, I Mean To Shine, Charlie Freak (probably low on th SO approval scale) Vouze Le Vouze Le Vouze Le Vouze, Pearl Of The Corner, SOUL RAM< LET GEORGE DO IT, SURF AND/OR DIE, COUNTER MOON. AND IF YOU THINK THIS IS TUFF, try coming up with a name for a KID! WOA how do you do that..... make the screen all....rubbery..... time for bed lovebob
ps "lovebob" has a kinda of a ring to it.....
St Al: I've been thinking about your little dilemma. Since your "new" boat is early '60's vintage, perhaps something from -The Nightfly- would be appropriate. In addtion to the title, consider Ruby Baby or Maxine. If not a song title, how 'bout Mandarin Plum or Cuban Breeze?
Just throwin' out my gold teeth,
Beautiful Survivor
SSSSSScared? Never. Notice I use my real E-mail address and real name. It seems so expected that "Gaucho" would boil it down to "Macho". Through your mutiple (and meaningless) posts, especially about this BMG thing, you proved my point. Thanks.
Edd Cote: Thanks for the reply about "Monkey", patiently waiting.
RubyBaby: A picnic, but I have to bring Donald?! Whoa you don't ask for much. I've got it on the the speed dial. Let you know.
About the notion of what kind of music will we be listening to in the future, think Chinese. The ancient most of civilizations, that has slept for so long, is awake and HUNGRY! Get ready for some chinese heavy metal. In a hundred years, China will account for over half the population of
the planet. And Sweden, whose population growth has practically come to screeching halt, will be just a little more than an insignificant Chinese province.

Hey, long time, no post.....
Well school is very good here at KU, and yes, we are over the fact that we didn't win it all. Well, there's always next year....or the baseball team..
Anyway, the point of this post is to inform that I am trying very very very very very very hard now to build up my Steely collection beyond the albums, and I am sorta searching for boots and other rare things. Can anyone recommend me to a certain page or person for trading tapes or would anyone here be interested in swapping tapes? Anyway, if you just send me an email, I'll tell you what I have to offer. Additionally, if you'd be interested in trading outside of Steely (i.e. jazz, etc..), I'd be happy to do that too.
That's about it, and I'll put in my final 2 cent by telling people what I am currently listening to:
Miles Davis-Porgy and Bess.
Jethro Tull-M.U. The Best Of.
Morphine-Cure For Pain
Charlie Hunter Quartet-Anything by these guys. Amazing!
Wynton Marsalis-Collection of Trumpet Concertos.
Well, gotta watch my Chicago Blackhawks get smeared across the ice by Colorado. Poor guys.
More to come........
Ben
st. al- i'll put my two cents into the boat discussion... if she's vintage 1962 she probably already has a name, and though she's your first boat and naming is cool, it's considered bad luck to re-name a boat. i think there may be a condition under which it may be okay, but i'm not sure what it is... i'll ask and tell ya later.
amanda
Awwwww yeah.
I recall when I was small, how I listened to the DAN.
All aboard, the Carib Cannibal---
rabbit: We think that you are right. "Shitband" is in the "ear" of the beholder. And in our collective ear, Uriah Heep is the definition of "shitband". Do you really like that overblown organ sound? It's too bad they don't have anyone who knows how to play it.

On a sad note, we lost SD Operative #114. He was on routine surveillance duty, when he was suddenly surrounded by an entire battalion of The KISS Army. He tried to make a run for it, but he could not escape. Unfortunately, his attackers were members of the "Gene Brigade" and they struck quickly with their fire-breathing antics. To make matters worse, SD Operative #114 had just been on a 'weekend bender' of Bacardi 151---thus greatly increasing his flammability.
His ashes(that's all that was left)will be dumped into the Hudson River with all the other dead bodies. Please play "Fire in the Hole" (his favorite song) in his memory.
The central Pennsylvania operation should conclude in 2 weeks. The 96th Street operation will continue on into the summer. We would love to tell you more, but we can't at this time. Our agents lives hang in the balance.
Lots of Luv, Kisses and Caviare Dreams,

St. Al--Snakehips. Period.
Doc--Re 11TOW--it came into my home just after release, and I gave it a couple of cursory listens--shrugged, and went on. Now, for the past 2 weeks, I've been listening to it nonstop, and the layers glimmer and twist more each time, just like you said.
E-bound: Right on. I'll be your dittohead any night of the week.
Clas: Hi, my name is O and I'm a Danaholic. Yours in recovery...
Gotta scoot. Call me a slow learner, but I just got the Brian Sweet book & am whipping through it. Will post when done.
And on that note--a MASSIVE and heartfelt thanks to St. Al, Pete, Eric, Joe M., the Eddman, and all other erudite Danians for creating this edenic site, my first web FUN.
lovebob (it does have kinda of a ring to it, doesn't it): Thanks for the helpful tip on preparing labels for mini-discs. In working on the project, I've come up against the same problem repeatedly, namely, that the maximum character limit per label is severely restricting the level of detail I am able to include on each (and we know how you love details). Therefore, I propose that we agree on specific codes for frequently-occurring events; these codes will be used on the labels, and will have the meanings as set forth below:
JD - 'Jack Daniels'; PD - 'pink drink'; OL - 'other liquor'; FYWR - '#*& you, we're Rockola'; LP - 'lost pick'; BC - 'bad cable', whether due to a loose connection or due to having been subject to one-too-many a JD (or other, see below) dribble; WK - 'which key is this in?' or 'wrong key', depending on whether or not the song actually started (usually the latter in the case of Reelin'); WS - 'which song?' or 'wrong song(s)', depending, again, on whether or not the song(s) actually started.
Also, you might be interested to know that I've found a direct correlation between the number of JD's, OL's, and PD's and the number and/or length of digressions between songs during the shows. For example:
Belly Up Tavern, August 1995, JD=42; OL=2; PD=2; "...just call the Rockola hotline, and enter the number, uh, 3, uh 2, yeah, 2 gets you The Steely Damned informa---no, first you enter 911, no, uh, 411 and ask diwectowee ashishance for the number to the Walocka, no, Rockola hotline, it's listed under R's for Rockola, ...." This one lasted for nearly 4 minutes.
Catamaran Resort Hotel, March 1996, JD=8, OL=1, PD=3; "...but I've got news for him (*you-know-who*)! NOBODY sits in with us unless they come to a rehearsal first..." This was short, but highly significant.
Blind Melons, c. October 1996, JD=6; OL=0, PD=42; "...and this is what I think about San Diego Magazine's list of Worst Bands in San Diego..." (sound of liquid hitting paper) "...holy $#*, the Rockola guy up there on stage just whipped..." This was a long digression, most likely because of the resulting BC's, though it was difficult to discern the actual activities taking place by listening to the disc.
And, seemingly unaffected by JD's, PD's and OL's, there are repeat instances of lyrics gone awry, such as: "...as the flowers schwept the shorida floor..." and "...where the neon bends the morning skies..." and "...she's the best Walter ever had..." and "...she shouts, she bites..." and "...for duh lidda guy...". OK, I take personal responsibility for that last one. Perhaps we should use JM to indicate 'Jaigermeister'.
The project continues, and I welcome any additional suggestions you may have for not only the label format but other aspects of the project as well. Your friend, Peg.

Dr. O.- I watched an episode of "Leave It Beaver" this weekend and it was all about Alan Ginsberg. It was quite enlightening."
June: "Ward, I'm worried about the Beaver."
Ward: "Why's that, dear?"
June: "Well, I caught some 55 year old man fucking him in the ass."
Ward: "Oh, June. Don't worry. That 55 year old man is a famous poet. You should be proud that he's fucking our son in the ass. Art for arts sake. That's what I always say."
And Pissboy:
Regarding separating the artist from the art: There's a big difference in D&W's not wanting to hang with their band in their spare time, and Ginsberg's illegal affinity for having sex with young boys. You might not have a problem with NAMBLA in your deviancy loving country, but here, it's something that should be looked upon with disgust. And regarding your WB innuendos, shut the fuck up.

R.O.C.K--poor taste.

In the June issue of Modern Drummer, there is an interesting interview with Leroy Clouden, who some of you may remember from his work on Kamakiriad or the 1992 NY Rock & Soul Revue. Besides some funnt comments about the Kamakiriad experience, Leroy reveals that he has played some "New Orleans grooves" on some Steely Dan material that has not been released. I wonder if that might turn up on the new album? It's also worth reading to see how Leroy or the magazine butchers the name of Fra Lippo Lippi, the Norwegian band that Walter produced in 1987. The name appears as Fralaleelippo or something like that.
Speaking of Asian music, has anyone heard the new album by Ryuchi Sokamoto (I know I probably slaughtered the name) -- the guy's a Japanese composer/producer with a huge range of acid/Bossa Nova jazz beats, some irrelavant vocals and a few House/techno rythmns thrown in for good measure. At the same time, anyone heard of Love Jones (not the movie, the band)? Their first album, Here's to the Losers, was actually pretty Steely -- sarcastic crooning, jazz and blues -- apparently they're a wellknown secret on the west coast, I appear to be the only? one who has heard of them here in New England
Ryuchi Sakamoto (sp?) has a hot track on Red, Hot & Rio, which is also
a very hip CD...
YGK--very good. the correct spelling is indeed 'ryuichi sakamoto,' although you might see 'ryuuichi sakamoto' or some other spellings, since even japanese people can't seem to agree on the best way to write their names in the ABC's.

Boat names: "Mr. hwhaddeveryh". Can you hear the local yocals trying to pronounce that one over the cb radio?
Others: monkeywoman, dime dancing.
It's killin' me.
maj.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions. The name has been decided.
RUBY BABY
Actually there is quite a bit of significance to this selection. First, the name of the car that actually brought my fiance' and I together was called "Rubie Mae" -- a red 1962 Ford Falcon (I love them). It was her first car and she held onto it for 10 years. I was gonna buy it from her, but, well, I stayed and the car eventually had to go (the proceeds of which contributed to the boat fund). Second, the lyrics have some significance. Just what is "lovin money"?. Lastly, it relates to Sir Donald.
Though Beautiful Survivors post was the one that sealed it, It was one of the first that popped into my head. At the time I was trying to avoid solo stuff and wasn't excited about the fact it isn't an original Fagen composition. Jami loved it. So the name stays.
Anyway, thanks again!
ROCK -- major guffaws...
Amanda -- What! You think I was born yesterday? I KNOW THAT. sheesh Boat has never been named.
lovebob -- too personal.
maj -- put the bong down man.
OK, After reading an email from my favorite Santa Monica resident I've decided to drop the new GB layout. 640 x 480 looks terrible. Plus, it still appears to be a bit buggy.
YGK -- drop a dime and get yourself a computer and an EMAIL ADDRESS. Juno is free......
Peace,
StAl
AMANDY; You don´t seem to understand what I mean hear. It´s your attitude. This was not a question of right and wrong, it was the question of your attitude. If I write that Becker spent time in jail for having sex with a 14 year old girl, and I say it´s a wellknown secret, then, kid, you feel that you have to defend your hero and you write " wellknown secret, I like that, it´s cute". So, off you go and ask daddy about that special party, maybe he was there.
Clas
StAl: Thanks for the nod - enjoy, and smooth sailing!
clas: What's up, man? Sounds like your feeling a bit defensive about
teenage girls. Got one yourself at home? Does she secretly enjoy a
cigarette and a beer when Daddy's not about? Nudge, nudge...
Get a grip you gossiping old fart! You've take amanda's comment too
close to heart for some reason -- maybe something's lost in the translation(?).
da: I'm pretty much localized here in the Midwest for the time being,
but I have a nasty habit of getting bored with my surroundings. Recently the left coast has had the greater pull on me when the road
bug bites. The Steely Damned is a new goal - I may check out the rates for renting a car for a one-way run from San Diego to SFO this summer!
I'll have to do that "drive west on Sunset" thing again.

clas-- i don't feel any need to defend walter for something he did a long time ago and doesn't do anymore. i don't defend him for doing drugs either, 'cause it's wrong. but i'm very, very glad that he's clean now. yes, he's my friend, and no, he's not my hero... the reason i commented on your mention of a "wellknown secret" is because you sit around this guestbook all day correcting people's punctuation (like your anal retentive fascination with three dots) and you can't even get your syntax right. usually i don't care about shit like that, but i don't like hypocrisy, and i hate condescension worse.

Pissboy:
Regarding your Walter accusations:
Show me an arrest report. Show me a court case. Show me a prison record. If not, shut the hell up.
R.O.C.K.
Clas, June & Ward never had a daughter, just Wally & The Beav. Maybe you are thinking of Father knows best or The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet.
R.O.C.K. -- of course he can't cite the evidence cause there
is none. But don't xpect that to shut him up, remember this is the
slime who used Karen Stanely for his walter-baiting some months back.
Now think about it, what sort of slug would do something like that?
This is no cute harmless clown.
We Know:
This Clas guy is a piece of fecal matter. I don't even think he's from Sweden. He seems to have an exceptional grasp of American popular culture for a foreigner. I think he's actually lives here in the U.S., which makes him even more pathetic. I don't know why he's got a vendetta against Walter, but it's just sad and probably criminal. Or definitely at least worthy of civil charges. Are there any lawyers out there?
i must say, the new look of the official site is lovely, don't y'all think?
amanda
There now, Babs, don't you feel much better. We'll have to do it again soon.

amanda- I agree completely - I love the look of the new SD page and I don't like Condensation on my hipocrisy either, I mean, a wet hipocrisy is damn near useless don't ya think? I left mine outside one evening when it was particularly humid and when I discovered it the next day it was ruined. I ended up feeding it to the dog next door.

Yes, the new web look is appealing, but only to those of us lucky enough to know what's really happened. Judging by the output and error messages displayed on the screen, we members of the weberati can see that WalterScript has gone awry. That's right... WalterScript (WS for short) is a nth-generation server-side scripting language that features bells and whistles like auto-grokking of web user's tastes (example: your average Bon Jovi fan is sent straight to whatever Web hell they should go to lest their presence cast horrible karma all over our boys' Web presence).
This exciting, innovative language, of course, will have to compete with the "big boys" of the Internet, so it's apparent that while the SD Web Drone was trying to create as much hip, techonologically-advanced-yet-funky-in-a-Dan-sort-of-way active content as the average Web user can stuff up his or her sockets, a few bugs in the language have become apparent, thus resulting in the temporary shutdown of the site. However, I'm sure that the site will come under control in a few time units... at least, just until Microsoft brings out Microsoft Jazz-Rock-Irony Band 98. When that comes... well, a whole shift of paradigm will be required.
Incidentally, that background on Les' page looks damned familiar...
I really like Steely Dan, and I also like this homepage. I just can't seem to get Stelly Dan songs out of my head. I hum "Kings on the way to Science at school, and "Bad Sneakers" on my way to English. I think they're a nd! This is a nice page, too.... Anybody got the chords for The Katy Lied album?
Sorry about the typo. nd doesn't mean anything, it's supposed to say great band.
AMANDA: I am trying hard to get my syntax right, and my anal (?) fascination for dots is just a joke. I want you to understand one thing before I drop this issue, what we are talking about here is just what you say; hipocrisy. Mr R O C K seems to have a problem with homosexuals, and I wanted to show him that the world is a very complex thing. There is no bad guys or good guys, there is no black or white, there is no simple answers to difficult questions. And for that matter I brought up mr Beckers past. Just to turn the thing around, -Look here, what do you think if your great idol did that? But it was useless, mr R O C K is not an open-minded fellow, and I still wonder how a guy like him can enjoy Steely-music. And about mr Walter Becker, that is my mainman in life. (how many times must I say that?) His music and his lyrics, and one of my fave-songs is "Down in the Bottom". And I don´t believe mr Becker would give a shit if he read this site. He has been around a long time. AND, I´m not judging him, you (who "defends" him) are. Remember that.
And I still thinks it is tragic that Karen Stanley got credits for being a nurse on Katy Lied. If you see it in retro.

StAl - I hope you're going to change the layout. I can't see a damn

Les - Ah, come on...I'm sure you can chew gum and maintain a website
at the same time.
Clas - Your talking out of your ass...again. First, you make obscene
phone calls to teenage girls, then you tell people you're dying of
cancer, and now you're passing off this absurd story about Walter? Wow,
it's amazing how some vodka guzzling, clog wearing pervert in Sweden
gets all this info. And to think, all of your information came from
Brian Sweet's book only a month ago. My, you've made some serious

clas-- right, a well-known saying. in sweden. i believe you.... yeah, that's the ticket. and yeah, i'm pretty sure about my syntax, even in spanish. when i speak another language, i try my best to speak it correctly.
and by the way, if your problem is with r.o.c.k., try fighting with r.o.c.k. instead of with me for a change... it'd serve your cause better, and conserve your strength, seeing as how you're still recovering from your "terminal" illness or whatever it was.

i must say, there's nothing to get you through the night (when you're up writing a term paper and all you want to do is sleep) like "the nightfly".... there's something about it, it just keeps driving right along, and i'm 5 pages done out of 7 (after some mighty creative formatting, if i do say so myself). only just a couple more hours till bed... problem is, i seem to keep procrastinating (doing things like posting here) no matter how much i want to get this thing over with and go to sleep...

Clas :
Like we say in my country, "estas meando fuera de la taza" which means you are pissing off the toilet. Don't waste your time. This guy R.O.C.K. has the worldview of a mongoose and logic is just not his thing.
You need to undersand these gringos so you don't piss them off continuously.
To start with, with some exeptions, most gringos are a bit paranoid, and that is because they produce lawyers at an alarming rate. What do you think these lawyers do. Lawsuits. The end result is parents who can't smack their children when they deserve it (corolary: a bunch of screaming spoiled kids calling 911), and all kinds of weird shit happening on a daily basis and being broadcasted to the world thanks to CNN and others like it.
I myself loved the one on the Heavens Gate group and all the stuff about the SLO (Saturn Like Object) accompanying comet Hale-Bopp which every sane person knows to be a magnitude 8 star in the background but which countless of pundits see as a clear sign of government cover up.
The news reads like symptoms that something really rotten is going on and nobody cares. Mostly people care only about "their" rights and "their" space and "their" money.
It's a little sad because I really like most gringos (some of my best friends are gringos) and the USA is really one of the greatest products of civilization. But sometimes these guys forget or are not ready to admit that there is life beyond the US borders.
Allow me to substantiate my claim.
There's UK bands, and Spanish tapas, Chateaunoeuf-du-Pape, real tacos which you can only eat in Mexico, Xian steamed dumplings, Argentinean Bife de Chorizo, great cultures where family is not just you and your parents but you and 200 other persons, whole continents where the term "politicaly correct" is meaningless, bars where if you don't want smoke in your face you have stay home, places like Armenia where bread is still made by knowledgeable hands, places like Brazil, where race is not an issue and Blacks and Whites and all the colors in between live in harmony and enjoy the fact that the guy down the block is different.
The other day I saw an advertisement in a magazine for a US product which is red wine in a can (like Coke) capped with a plastic cup, in a couple of crackers and some very yellow processed cheese. The advertisement read "Very Convenient"
Now could anyone please tell me
WHAT THE PHUCK IS THAT SHIT

Something (or someone) known as TDF, for Totally Dysfunctional Family, has a CD, "Retail Therapy" which absolutely rips. I recommend it in lieu of something from Steely Dan. You guys remember them, right?
Sorry for interjecting something musical. OK, you can get back to vilifying one another now.
What the hell happened to the official site? Did they re-hire that "2nd Arrangement" engineer?
Amanda:As a mobile disc jockey in Ottawa I used to play Nightfly during dinner at weddings as background music. It has an astounding mood. I think that the character Fagen presents in the song Nightfly is probably one of his best...I also like the way he sings the bridge to "Daddy don't live in NYC". Great inflections. I still haven't heard from Pete Fogel. It's been MONTHS! I know I stumped him and I really don't want to go public about this but I have a feeling that this guy's a bit of a weasle. Don't want to think that way but there's no way he can't have recieved my mail.. Shindig
Gauch: Ouch! I'm not sure whether it's my unit or my software. My unit is a 486DX266 with peripherals from same era and I'm running Navigator Gold on Win3.1.

Damn the vibe around here never changes.... (4 dots)
Gaucho: First let me say that your post have been a welcome addition. However, dude, sweeping generalizations suck, and you just used an industrial sized broom.
First, turn of your television right now. In fact, why do you just kill the fucker -- like I've done. CNN? Is that your source? HA! Let's keep this in perspective. Here is how my day went yesterday. I got up, SSS, grabbed bite to eat, went to work, worked, came home, cooked a little something for my gal, studied a bit and went to bed.
I'd say that is a pretty AVERAGE AMERICAN DAY. Certainly not newsworthy. You've got to work at learning a bit more about us "Gringo's". I know this may be hard considering the fact that all you south-of-the-border types are lazy..... (5 dots)
I hope this doesn't mean I can't be one of your "GRINGO FRIENDS".
To All: I mentioned earlier that I'll be making a change to the new layout. Allow me to be a little more specific: When I edit the book this weekend I will be taking the book out of the frames and removing the spiral background. OK?

I am still laughing Gaucho, you are a funny man.
Although the dog slept till 7, our cat did´nt. Me and my wife woke up, suddenly, 3.30 in the morning when the damn cat "walked the piano".

StAl: Yes, I'd also prefer the pre-frame and pre-spiral version of the guess-who's-in-need-of-therapy book. It looks great on my PC with Netescape 3.0 but not on the Unix workstation with same SW version.
Jon: can you be a little more specific about the Totally Dysfunctional Family? The band name alone made me curious. Made me remember Consolidated's "Dysfunctional Relationship".
Cheer up everybody, the BOYS WILL HAVE AN ALBUM. Well, don't ask me when, but we've been patient before, haven't we? And for all of you who think life's only fun with a flame-thrower:
I hate all dumb sick assholes who don't know shit, and most of all don't know how to hide their psychotic insides on this network and spare their ugliness for themselves, their psychatrist and their priest, or whatever. I don't tell you to cool down or to shut up or to quit posting so much crap, because you won't because you can't that's your problem, remember.
See, this is a generalization, as well .... Feel free to relate this last part of my post to yourself. Or not.

Been thinking that a nice concept for the new album would be: "Becker and Fagen: Drum Wars" Where they each lead a percussion section on opposing tracks and try to outdo each other. We just don't see enough "Drum War" type matterial on the racks these days. Hey, they like Ellington right? They could do a souped up version of Caravan. Maybe Chad Wackerman could sit in? At the very least they should write a song that has the name "Chad Wackerman" in it. I mean, EVERYONE thinks they can play the drums..I'm sure they're half way there. "Becker and Fagen salute dead rock stars" was another idea. If there's a rock n' roll heaven, y'know they got a hell of a band. I'm sure some former members of Steely Dan are up there right now.
Hello dearest friends
Today I am happy so I will share some musical thoughts with you.
There's this totally brutal, awesome group called TribalTech. They are not very well known but considering that all of you enjoy the dan I would not be surprised to find some TribalTech fans among you.
For those that don't know the group I would recommend you give them a chance to delight you with their tight sounds. Two guys lead the group (as far as I can tell) the guitarist, Scott Henderson, and the bassist, Gary Willis. Both are out of this world.
Gary's bass is what should be. Musical and precise, and none of that shit of playing "piccolo" bass like many bass players which want to lead insted of just playing BASS.
Scott's lute is profound and has a tendency to catch fire. He is well versed in various styles, most notably blues and jazz, and his riffs are fluid. When he plays with TribalTech, he IS fusion, but he also has a solo CD which I would call "intelligent" blues, kinda like blues wich some jazz chord influences. Scott sounds like a mutation between Alan Holdsworth and Stevie Ray Vaughn. He's a cool guy too, I met him in Buenos Aires and West Palm Beach. (which reminds me, do not ever go to a jazz gig in Argentina, gauchos don't know shit about jazz and just sit there, it's pathetic)
Gary has a new album with Allan Holdworth and I really like it. If any of you have not heard of Allan, try getting any of the solo albums by Bill Bruford (like Gradually Going Tornado). Allan was also with Tempest, Jean Luc Ponty and Mahavishnu.
The other guy I am really starting to dig profoundly is John Scofield. I say him twice this year, and almost passed out. His cadence is unique. Try the album where he plays with Pat Metheny or his new one, called Quiet.
Well friends, I thought I should for one say something nice, so there you go. Enjoy.
Goodbye
P.S. Oh, yea, I almost forgot!!!!
Earthbound : Fuck you too, man. You don't deserve to be called a Boilermaker and you are obviously such a dimwit that you missed the joke. Hit the books and do try to make something out of your sorry pathetic life. And don't waste your parent's money, because that is one good school you're attending. Fucking paranoid. Go to the shit.
By the way, I am correct about the May 98 date.
Gaucho de las pelotas GRANDES
Encouraging post Gaucho. TribalTech, huh? Perhaps I'll give it a listen.
You used the statement, "gauchos don't know shit about jazz and just sit there, it's pathetic." Couldn't that be a statement implicating yourself?
I must also add, "Gaucho's don't know shit about subtlety."
Given the current state of our Northern Mid-western States, perhaps your "joke" could've included other states not receiving National Disaster Relief due to the worst flooding in a century, if not longer.
Or maybe you just don't know all 50.
Perhaps you could bring your wide ass ego and snappy remarks up to NYC, where we love an attitude, and given the fact that you don't know your boundaries, who knows what would happen?
Are you 15 years old? You certainly write as if you are.
and another thing....
Scofield is old news, dude....
GAUCHO: If you like Scofield you must buy the video with Jaco Pastorius. He is playing with Jaco. It´s great.
I can play Giant Steps on my acoustic guitar. Very fast.
YGK; Did you hear about the trainaccident in Bombay? 225 people killed. You know Bombay, India? Didn´t think so.

George: Amen!
Zeke: Talk to us bra'about JazzFest...I miss the festivals and spillway Crawfish this time of year.
Gaucho: Allan Holdsworth's work on the first UK album was awesome...was lucky enough to see
him solo in a small club about '85
Shindig: Pete must be on vacation.
I e-mailed him a trivia question about 4 weeks ago, but no reply...
Given up so thought I'd give some of the astute viewers out here a try - maybe this will lighten things up?. If someone can answer this..well, I don't really have a prize...I'll e-mail or post a jambalaya

Q: On the '93 St. Louis concert, WB introduces the band before they play Green Flower Street.
When he gets to one member, a few notes are played (by DF I think) on the Fender Rhodes as an embellishment to provide the correct aural accent. What is strange/odd about the phrase that was played?
SEE
This is exactly what I mean. YGK (You Gon Ka) or rather (YKG : You Ka Gon) is another paranoid, sensitive, politically-correct, gringo (I don't say American because America goes from Canada to Argentina, so I am an American. WHAT!! You didn't KNOW)
"Don't say nasty things, don't talk to me about religion or politics, you hurt me, you hurt my feelings, WAAAAHHHHH"
Paranoia. A guy makes a "fried chicken" joke and he is crucified.
In a society where the standard is the lowest common denominator of the "you hurt my feelings" threshold you say BLACK and people look at you in a funny way, even though you might have been talking about the color of your shirt, you say BLACK HOLE and your in deep shit. You say what you feel and you are an obnoxious sick asshole, Satan's bedfellow. So much for the FREE society. (I myself think they call it the Land of the FREE because of all the junk mail that say FREE GIFT)
This is why most US movies are such a predictable piece of garbage; any producer knows that if they have a REAL ending the movie wont sell. This is also why a good movie like "Natural Born Killers" won't ever get an Oscar.
Grow up.
Oh, by the way. You all do know that GOD doesn't exist, right??

Dr Mu: You are correct, I didn't receive your question---Birdland
Amanda: One of the questions I received a while back was asking me who your babysitter was. That and other questions I deem inappropriate or ridiculous will not get a response.
Right now I'm on my way to a VH1 taping with Boz Scaggs. Steely Dan alumni Cornelius Bumpus and Drew Zingg are in the band. If you're interested, the show should air in the next month or so.
ROCK : You are brillant. Such investigative powers are seldom seen.
StAl: Too cool! When I logged on - spirals, after a reload - gone!
"Who are these children who scream and run wild?"
HUH? They're baaack! Is this a double-helix? Weird.
GAUCHO : I too am a big fan of Alan Holdsworth. If you ever meet Mr. H, however, I would highly recomend thinking twice about complimenting his work on "Gradually Going Tornado". The Unknown John Clark is the only guitarist on GGT. I would instead speak of his ground breaking technique on the first UK album or his brilliance on Bruford's "Feels Good To Me".
lovebob
Gauch: TribalTech, YES!
Dr Mu: I saw that same Holdsworth tour in a small club in KCMO... awesome! I also saw the same Dan show in St. Louis '93... killer show! I was still recovering from the Chicago show, which was the show I had been waiting 15+ years to see... none of the subsequent shows have made my spine tingle like the first! I'm having a hard time recalling the mood music you were referring to... of course, I've seen 5 shows since which has dulled my memory of that particular playlist... and I can't seem to find my notes from the '93 shows... I try to note the unusual when I detect such... perhaps you could give us a hint?
Hi all. I'm almost afraid to join this fray out of fear of Gaucho or someone else I may eventually disagree with.

More to come.....

Speaking of Alan Holdsworth, he was originally asked to play guitar on the SD '96 tour.
Boz was great last night, in fact the whole band was. Two beautiful yet talented backup singers, and a great 4-piece horn section. If you get a chance, you should check out the show, it's part of the Hard Rock Live series on VH1 and should air soon.
Pete, Doc: Alan Holdsworth with Steely Dan! What a thought! He can make some runs on the guitar that
are so fast and fluid, it's scary. BTW Pete, you're half-right so far. That phrase *is* from Birdland, but something is still odd.
George says THE BOYS WILL HAVE AN ALBUM, but it sounds like WB himself is unsure of this. He has just posted new answers to some e-mails in the Steely Dan official mailroom, and when one asked him whether there will be a new album soon, he answered: "That's what I keep asking myself."
Gaucho Amigo: yawn. The southern border regions of the US have always had a spanish flavor. The recent rise in the number of spanish speaking peoples, whether here legally or not, is a perfect example of the true status of Central American, Carribean, and South American nations. The streets are flooded with garbage, the air is filled with the stench of sewage, garbage, and automotive air pollution, I've been there, I know. The economies south of the border are lackluster, presenting poor wages to the average worker, poor health care, etc. Can these people be blamed for coming to this country? They know what superiority is, and their country of origin isn't it, otherwise they'd still be there. Nonetheless, the US is such an economic powerhouse, I beleive it is our duty to accept the poor, provide medical treatment to them and their children and put food in their stomachs. Not out of holier than thou attitude but out of compassion for the peoples. This is a large country, with room for way more people and the capacity to feed them. Our society is great because of the past policy of accepting immigrants from around the world. Our diversity has made us strong. Our mistake will be to lose sight of this. By the way, pelotas grandes? You show yourself to be a fake or a wannabe. Fui a correr sus huevos pocos, senora gaucha amiga.
Fire: how come you can read what's in the mail room, while all I can see is a memo from the ex-webmaster gone mad?
GAUCHO: Do you know that some of your posts are small masterpieces? As you use to say: Today I am happy, I will now show you the chords of Giant Steps:
2/4: I: /B D7/GBb/ Eb . /Am7D7/G Bb7/Eb F#7/B . /Fm7 Bb7/Eb . /Cm7 F#7/ :I
So guys, pick up your accordion, banjo or whatever, start practice, this is a hard one to play solo on.
Clas
...should be played in 225 BPM. Or faster.
I though I was big.
I though I was clever.
I am, of course, only one of these.
For, oh yes, I thought I could get a copy of New York Rock and Soul Revue here in England.
Nope.
So, can anyone help me? I will pay a fair price and forever have a great opinion for someone who can provide the goods.
Yours,

PPPPaul: "The streets are flooded with garbage, the air is filled with the stench of sewage, garbage, and automotive air pollution, I've been there, I know." First I thought you meant Louisiana. (I´ve been there)
StAl: Me too, I think you are a cool redneck. I like the new yellow page.
Viva Nicaragua!
Babs, dunno, the main Web page still looks fine to me. Maybe try connecting directly to the mailroom (steelydan.com/mailroom.html).
That is some funny shit at the official site! Keep up
the levity...
Looks like WB and co. are primed to do to cyberspace in the
'90's what they did to pop music in the '70's... How ironic.
Fire: thanks... I got in via that address.
I watched a bit of the 60's movie "Our Man Flint" yesterday and it had a character named Dr. Wu. (This is true, not a lead-in to a perversity joke.) The Doctor was one of a team of misguided scientists with many mesmerized followers. No mention of Biscayne Bay but the film was set partly in the Virgin Islands. Could this be an intentional cinematic allusion? They didn't say whether he'd done all he could do.
Bodacious Cowgirl: Speedy recovery to you. Did you have arthroscopic surgery or full zipper butcher shop surgery?
Re: nationalism on the guestbook: Let us quote the book of Randy Newman just one last time..."Asia's crowded; Europe's too old; Africa's way too hot and Canada's too cold. South America stole our name. Let's drop the big one, there'll be no one left to blame us."
Politically correctly yours, RS
whoa, lookee what happened to the main SD site....
i'd be pissed off except that my graphics look almost BETTER scrambled like that....

Verrrrrry interesting!
So much sh!t flying around, so little time to read it... :(
Does anyone here still want to talk about SD?
Saw them in St Petersburg, Florida '94 and Wembley, London '96. Hmmmm, ask me ten years ago if I ever thought I'd do that!
Dr. Mu asks: On the '93 St. Louis concert, WB introduces the band before they play Green Flower Street.
When he gets to one member, a few notes are played (by DF I think) on the Fender Rhodes as
an embellishment to provide the correct aural accent. What is strange/odd about the phrase that
was played?
Swami Pete answers: Birdland
Dr. Mu responds: Okay, you're half right.
My shot at it: Although Peter Erskine was a member of Weather Report
(as Walter mentions in his intro) he was not their drummer at the time
"Heavy Weather" was recorded. Therefore, the "Birdland" Fender embellishment was the
incorrect aural accent to provide. Do tell?
Hey Gouch-oh: quando meas fuera de tu taza - use some tissue ... Du auch, Clas. Maybe find yourself some seats in an Anonymous Scat'ers group. Invite r.o.c.k. maybe. 'Nuff said ;-|
Jon: thanks for the Total Dysfunctional Family hint. For anyone else interested, direct your browser to RepriseRec. I really think you might also enjoy some of what I listen to lately - browse at nettwerk or nettmedia for some Brainbox, Grassy Knoll or Consolidated music (beware they're a good deal more kaputt than TDF).
WB must have found some funny places on the Web reading his email - I've seen Bonnie Scotland's
a
a Tue Apr 29 07:52:11 PDT 1997
wow, it worked!
kinda
Dr Mu: you'll need to re-post what you wrote to Joe -- there was some HTML goof-up that made your post invisible.
Joe M: Bullseye! Peter Erskine did not join Weather Report until their following release "Mr. Gone." Acuna was the drummer on "Heavy Weather."
I'll post or e-mail the jamabalaya recipe later this afternoon or tomorrow.
Shindig, I too deeply dig the bridge to Daddy Don't Live in NYC. "I gotta see a joker then I'll be right back." Wow. I know that guy. I AM that guy.
A lot of silly nya-nya-nya going on here these days. I'm off to the offish website to see what the commotion is about.
Hi gang--As I said, call me a slow learner, but I just finished the Sweet book (not a slow reader, but had to sandwich it in between life, kids, etc.). Not well written. Embarrassingly badly edited. But lots of fun info. Does anyone know if it was largely true?
George--I completely agree w/ you. Maybe St. Al should put the flames in a separate flame archive so those who enjoy this form of communication can have at it in their own peaceful valley.
SD operatives: why is it that Gaucho, YGK, and ROCK's posts are always within minutes of each other? Coincidence? Or am I out of the loop?
And come on, guys, enough about female anatomy. This isn't a stag page; you're just being offensive.
Bode C-girl--welcome back to the world of the walking. What was your lesion?
....it could be that we log in at roughly the same time frame....
I log in from work, check back here frequently, and add what I can where appropriate/inapproptiate.
YGK--maybe yes, maybe no. When I look you up in Park Slope maybe we can clear this up.
BTW, St. Al--Love the new look--spring peach; it's perfect with my boudoir decor.
Anybody else irked by the new Rolling Stone top 200 albums ever? Only Pretzel Logic????!!!!@#&$^% Not even Aja? I guess I should know better than to look at such arbitrary and benighted lists.....
I'm sure that we can, olean.
BTW, when are you coming?
RS and oleander--Thanx for the well-wishes! It was complete rupture
of ACL, MCL, and tears to both cartilages, my doc calls it 'The
Unhappy Triad Plus'. Have a big zipper incision down the middle of
my knee where patellar tendon was harvested to rebuild ACL, and
several (6 to be exact) small incisions from the scope. Ah well,
at least I won't have to go to work for a few months. So I will have
lots of time to revisit all my favorite SD material, and find new
things to love about each. I shall report my findings. Lately, I've
been on a 'Gaucho' kick, it just makes me want to dress up as a
movie star, don my cheaters, and go cruising out in the sun, in a
long, sleek convertible.
toodle-oo,
BC
ps--where's Maxine been? Anyone heard from her?
Gaucho: Yo soy paranoid y sensitivo. No me flamo, por favor. Muchas gracias.
Earthbound: Isn't it "scheme"? We've been trying to figure that one out for years.
p.: EGTTMNWAA="Everyone's Gone To The Movies Now We're Alone Again". If you need it: I'm a big fan, I got a program. And, yes.
"Yes, jack, I gave it back, this ring I could not own..."
lucky henry: Shouldn't it be EGTTMNWAAL because it's "alone at last" instead of "alone again"?
BC: I'm around, lurking every now and again and getting ready to start grad school full-time. Now I guess I actually *do* fit the bill of "college-student" (although not quite the "teenage girl" type - a decade ago, perhaps...)
Saw a piece on the Jazz Fest the other eve and thought of Zeke... there's another name I don't see 'round these parts that often anymore. Anyone here checking that out?
(Oh yes...George: a belated thanks for the cassette!)
-M.
Oh yeah, I was so greedy to show you in html that I musta mistyped one thing or the other. What I tried to show you was this fun place:
The rest of my message also got munched away in html hell:
Pete Fogel or anybody who is willing to tape the VH-1 broadcast of Boz Scaggs to come on a VCR for me? Please! I'll send you an empty VCR cassette and a surplus surprise audio cassette in exchange. Email me!
Hi, Maxine, nice to see you again here!
StAl, 'tis very pleasant to me eyes, thanks.
that one, George?
Dr Mu: While Erskine joined Weather Report after Heavy Weather was recorded, it's important to note that Erskine did play lots of live versions of "Birdland," most notably on the 8:30 live album. DF's quoting of "Birdland" made the connection between Erskine and Weather Report, so I feel that it was an appropriate addition.
Tangent: As cool as Weather Report is, I feel that "Birdland" is best played live by monster brass man Maynard Ferguson. WR did it best in the studio, but there's nothing like hearing the loudest horns in the world belt out such a great tune with a jazz-savvy audience providing the handclaps at the "chorus."
--S.
What can I say, Dan is all mighty. On vinyl, CD, and most definetly in concert. Although I have only seen then at The Shoreline, they are superb.
GEORGE; Who the hell are you to tell me were I should send my posts? And about AA, should mr Becker join me there too? Or what?
You are a stupid fucker. I love Steely Dan, but I don´t like to dissect and talk music (how much can you talk?). I know lots about music, but I prefer to play. I think there are OTHER matters we can discuss. But maybe not, every issue I bring up you either call me a phsyco (does that go for mr. Fagen as well? he fell deeply in a depression and a phsychosis after Nightfly and still keeps his analyst busy), screaming for lawyers or misscredit me as an person. So go fuck yourself, I have not seen anything interesting brought to this page by you.
RUBY; we are moving, I know you´re not big but you are strong, could you help us with the piano?
Princess Amandy; Hi kid.
Clas
Hallo...?
I guess I'm a bit of a DanFan Guestbook virgin, although I've been reading some of your output for the last week or so...Or at least long enough to establish that Clas requires no more nor no fewer than three dots.
I saw both nights of the Dan at Wembley Stadium in London (where I live despite being originally from Texas)and once in the Birmingham NEC.
Be nice to me at least until I can get the hang of this!
FineCol
Er...Hallo?
I confess to being a complete Guestbook virgin, however, I have been watching for about a week. Long enough at least to gather that Clas requires no more nor no less than three dots...
I saw the Dan at Wembley Stadium in London for both nights and travelled on to the Birmingham NEC and to describe all three nights as utterly orgasmic vastly understates the experience.
Be nice to me at least until I can get the hang of this!
FineCol
FineCol: You posted the same material twice, you computer illiterate, Lone Star drinking, kidney pie eating, secessionist, Thatcherated, Johnny Paycheck listening, limey, redneck moron. Now that you're not a guestbook virgin, was it good for you too? Welcome.
Santo Al: El formatto nuevo por el guest-libro de Dan Esteelio es mucho mejor.
RS
Ear Candy for Chord Sluts: I love those chords that hit on the words (I've placed in uppercase) of the lyrics in Jack of Speed.
"...I know your Thinkin that it Might be deScribed as One long Tear across that Thin white Line..."
Go the Donald!!!
Walter: keep it up!!
maj.
ACL: ...and Michael McDonald played keyboards and sang back up for songs like Do it Again on the '74 SD tour. I'm sure
Birdland was chosen simply because it's the most recognizable and "hummable" Weather Report Song
JoeM. Get me your e-mail address and I'll get that recipe for you.
I tried to poke around to verify Gaucho/Clas's claim for a May'98 release date without much luck. The only thing of tangential significance is that Warner Bros owns an Evolution records. Anybody out there have any luck?
Hell, I guess I spell better when I´m drunk. Psycho, psychosis. Don´t sue me ROCK! Well, now I´m happy again, we are through with the "carrying things", and the best part of it is: I can walk to my office from our new home, it takes me about five minutes! Isn´t that great? I can go down here at nights and check the dots... apropos dots;
FineCol; Welcome! You are right about those dots but you forgot one thing here... scroll scroll.. you have to have space after the dots... see, space? (it´s the long button lowest on your keyboard) (I think, I´m not sure, someone told me but I keep forgetting.)
OLEANDER: Hi, my name is clas and I am a ...! I have read the Sweet book, I thought it was very interesting. A piece of history in my own time. I don´t have the hang of the word editing, so, what do you mean with " bad edited"?
scroll scroll
BODACIOUS COWBELL: I can see that you are talking to MY doctor about YOUR bad knee... eh... what the hell has that to do with my sternum pain?
So, tomorrow, if I´m still happy, I will show you some typicall Steely Dan-chords,
Clas

Yo!
So, ignore me then, if that is what you wish.
Since nobody wants to tell me they were there in St Petersburg Fl '94 or Wembley '96 (except for fellow countryman, FineCol) I shall assume that I was there and you weren't. Nah nah nah na-na-na!
Actually, both concerts were pretty good. I remember the one in Florida, when they tried to do a couple of Walter's songs (Book of Liars, and all that?) a lot of people got up and went to the restrooms. Better than in '93, when - I've heard - half the audience pissed off to the bogs. (Brit for 'powdered their noses' - take that any way you like). Personally? I think they were all looking for razorblades.
My husband is the only person I know who feels cheered up when he listens to 11 Tracks of Whack, does anyone else out there feel the same?
Me? I can't listen to two tracks in a row without wanting to top myself. Play something off SD no 7, methinks. Restore normality.
TTFN,
Teresa
lucky henry: thanks..yeah, right, it musta been the missing "L" that threw me off. BTW, I think it is "scheme", and isn't it "THE ring I could not own"?
spring peach? kinda looks tan to me...
amanda
Dr. Mu: See above address, and thanks...
maj: Agreed, "Jack of Speed" is yet another instance in The Dan's
excellent adventures in chord development. "Wet Side Story" takes some
interesting twists and turns as well. How about the progression that
follows Donalds vocal-leading-into Walters fluid guitar solo...
followed by some nifty modulations during Walters solo... followed
finally by a recapitulation of the main theme... enter Donald on
vocals again... Cool. (Help me out on the actual chords here Edd Cote,
won't ya?). This is another one of those classic don't-try-this-one-at-home
offerings from the bards.
Joe
fire, p.: yeah, yeah, i know. Yo lo siento! But i also used to think it was "the Cuervo Gold, the fine-toothed comb...", "...that's where I found my nom de plume..." and "...we fart, now I can't remember why..." Thanks for setting me straight. (Sorry about the dots, clas...)
But I'm sticking with "I know you're thinking that it might be fine, the whole world turnin on that thin white line..." Sorry, dude.
When i last talked to Warner Reprise (June '96) I was told the Dan "have been getting bounced around a lot." (?With one release in 16 years?) For some reason i was under the impression the next label would not be with Revolution. But if you listen to the dialog at the end of "You got to Walk it like you talk it" you might hear "It's a Revolution" and "Out in California". So, Don Only Knows.
Bodacious Cowgirl: hope you're feeling better soon. I didn't realize there was someone else with sort-of the same name already, otherwise I would've chosen a much more obscure one. No plans for a sex-change at this time...
Silly question, if anyone can answer it. Are there any plans for a tour in the near future? Perhaps if I'd been reading the last few months' postings, I would find out.
