Steely Dan on Late Show, 1995 and 2000 (stereo)

Steely Dan performed two times on Late Show:
1. October 20, 1995: "Josie"
2. March 3, 2000: "Cousin Dupree"
Both performances in full and glorious stereo.
For Walter.

On a real sound system. McIntosh and klipsh. Mind boggling. Modern Beethoven's.

[@xxczerxx]

What they did was such a rarity though. Two guys who were freakishly gifted at songwriting, and also into beatnik culture and old jazz music, took that sensibility into the rock music idiom of that era. The result is this deadpan, effortlessly cool and often quite biting music that exists in its own dimension. It's hard to imagine such a thing (or anything close to it) happening again in music, that attitude they had doesn't really exist in the modern day with my generation. There have of course been several amazing bands over the last 25 years or so but they're nothing like SD.

[@shelbyboss5271]

As a teenage saxophone player in the 70's & 80's hooked on jazz, surrounded by rock, and somewhat intrigued by punk/new wave, I was totally captivated by Steely Dan. Despite the AM radio air play of "Reelin' In the Years", "Rikki Don't Lose That Number", and "Peg" (the only Steely Dan songs I ever heard on the radio), it was "Bodisatva", "Dr. Wu", "Don't Take Me Alive", "FM", and my all time favorite "Black Cow" that intrigued me, got me through finals at college, and gave me comfort. The sophistication of their chord progressions alone were exhilarating, but when combined with Phil Woods' tasty sax solos, Becker & Donnie Diaz's crying guitar licks, and the memorable echos of Michael McDonald's voice, well I just surrendered to it. And yet there was more: the art of sarcasm redefined through their provocative lyrics. I mean not just profound poetry (e.g. "Reelin' in the Years", "Black Cow"), self deprecating introspection (e.g. "Deacon Blues", "Brooklyn", "Any World"), or drug fueled mayhem (e.g. "Doctor Wu", "Kid Charlemagne"), but unforgettable imagery with phrases like "Kick off your high-heeled sneakers", "Just by chance you crossed a diamond with a pearl", and "Every man and beast appeared a friend as real as I". Walter Becker and Donald Fagen: you got me, I bopped and cruised to rock, I danced at clubs to New Wave, but I "thought" to the perfect fusion of jazz and rock that had but one master: the Dan of Steel. In a truly sardonic irony, the fate suffered by Walter Becker puts him in a league with Michael Angelo, Van Gogh, Beethoven, Billie Holiday, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, and other twisted geniuses the world has loved and lost.

[@davidgeary490]
