My
ALL-TIME favorite musical group. This band did more to change my life
than any other. I can't even begin to put into words all the thoughts,
emotions, and funny stories about them and the journey they took me on.
But I will share this - I bought my first CD player just so I could
listen to Steely Dan.
"11 Tracks" is one of the utterly under appreciated albums of all time and I also have had that thing on heavy rotation since the get-go. "Circus Money" was also astonishingly cool.
So many great bands of the 70s/80s have come and gone without me seeing them live. But a couple years ago I was able to catch SD at Red Rocks. My buddy bailed cause it was drizzling rain so I soldiered on alone. What a treat. The venue was completely socked in, it looked like a castle suspended the clouds and they were running squeegies on the stage to keep back the water. Kieth Carlock on the drums was just incredible. I will never forget his performance on Aja. Fagan's voice is not what it was but SD was still so good. One of the best nights at RR for me and there have been a bunch. This year it was Ian Anderson with a full string and woodwind section of the Colorado Symphony. If you have never been there, find a band you love that is appearing there and go. No place like it.
