Customer Review

One can the Steely Dan sound easy as, or blasiert`, versnobt` dismiss because rarely rocked the music or grooved really necessarily, and certainly not on the last album for a long time, Gaucho`; the merits of Steely Dan recordings are but elsewhere - in the very well informed about the Jazzharmonik compositions, the often smug, but entertaining texts, the almost casual vocal that was always fail and the last but not least perfect craftsmanship implementation.

For the latter, they picked for this album anyway only the creme de la creme of the former West Coast studio musician and timbered a plate that both in terms of sound aesthetics, and what the terms of songwriting a timeless reference work of upscale, sophisticated pop music.

Randy Brecker and Tom Scott (the most part, the Horns arranged) make a guest appearance by David Sanborn that the wind sitting as the cocktail dress, Hugh McCracken, Steve Khan, Rick Derringer and Hiram Bullock accept the guitar work (sometimes also attacks served his continuous shuffle to Babylon Sister`) and Jeff Porcaro, percussion, among other things beisgesteuert by Ralph McDonald and on bass is heard next - Walter Becker to the instrument), the drums are alternately of Steve Gadd, Rick Marotta, Bernard Purdie (legendary Becker on some tracks Anthony Jackson (of, Headhunters` Fame); If that's still not enough name dropping, then place under the backing vocalists still Valerie Simpson, Patti Austin and Michael McDonald.

The fact that so many Kapazundern course of possibly smoothest sound of decaying 70s had created, is almost obvious; and as a bonus the whole thing sounds on vinyl even extremely well, thanks to the production by Gary Katz and Bob Ludwig's mastering.

Highlights are on here, either all or no track because you really have to be aware that this music is neither urgent nor imperative Rather, it is just as important and irreplaceable as a designer of furniture, but an extremely successful and beautiful to sighted; So the ideal accompaniment to an elegant cocktail slurping. Who wants to hear something important, should be better access to the Clash or Miles Davis, but the target audience is served here perfectly, which is why you do not just go around comes around 5 star here.
