Steely Dan - New release / June 10th

Buscis2,

The "one" that got away? We all have regrets. An interesting anecdote, I got a request several years ago from a gentleman looking for some quality analog semiconductors to build a "headphone amp". I probed as to what his application was; he was an engineer at Studio Morin Heights who was working with Peter Gabriel at the time (Daniel Langois on the board). Suffice to say I hand delivered the parts at no cost!!!!!!!!!! Did you have the privilege of seeing Frank Zappa in concert?

No Jeff, and man I wish I could of. FZ was such a great guitar player and many people who actually did see him say he was so incredibly focused when he played. In his later years, when he was conducting, often the orchestra musicians would comment on his levels of perfection and expertise.

Frank, (I should say Dr.Zappa Phd) was an extremely significant musician in modern music history. You can consider yourself very fortunate having had the chance to see FZ.

I think I can speak for all of us when I say "your very respectfully missed FZ".

I just discovered a way to listen to the whole recording for free on their website: click on "Listen Now" and a pop-up appears where you can view weird video clips, but at the bottom click on "play songs from the new album". You can listen to each song in it's entirety. The quality is streaming audio, and a fast connection is probably needed, but I really like the sound of this new album...espcially "Green Book"

Happy listening!

Just spent a night listening to "Everything Must Go". Very good music, definitely a step up from the somewhat disappointing "Two Against Nature".

Has anyone else noticed low frequency "thumps" on several of the tracks?
