Steely Dan

[Wooderson]

Interesting little curveball there young Neil. I know one or two Steely Dan geeks on here that would foam at the mouth if they were to show up on Jazz World this year.

The solo on "Ricky Don't Lose That Number" would give me a serious semi. You have been warned.

In the words of Mr. M Mathers III:

"Who the f**k are Steely Dan??"

Middle of the road American AOR, they look like Skynyrd, alas that where the similarity ends.

If this was announced I would personally cook dinner for the Eavis family for six months

You know 'Reelin' in the Years' as well

Oops quoted the wrong reply, never mind think you get my drift.

they've announced some dates around Glasto, so who knows....?

[Wooderson]

Good work young Neil. Steely Dan would be perfect Jazzworld headliners on the Friday night dontchaknow.

Middle of the road...hilarious....the Dan are considerably less MOR than skynyrd.Furthermore alot of their stuff has been heavily sampled by prominent hip-hop acts in the past. In my opinion their album "Cant buy a thrill" is a must have. Their standard of musicmanship is revered by critiscs and bands alike...the opposite of the punk aestethtic is not a bad thing you know.Would love to see them at Glasto.

Good lord. I hope this is true. I'd love to hear Show Biz Kids live.

I saw Nearly Dan (Steely Dan tribute) in the Acoustic Tent in 2000 and they were unreal. The real thing would be awesome!

[crimsonking]

Indeed, do they still do 'All around my hat'

[DaveMac]

Good question. Who knows?

Jun 26 - Amsterdam, Holland - Heineken Music Hall

Jun 28 - Edinburgh, Scotland - Edinburgh Playhouse

Jun 29 - Birmingham, UK

So Saturday night is the only possibility then.

[The Nal]

At least its a possibility - them on tour and a date gap available.

Will be keeping my fingers crossed for an appearence at Glasto.

Nearly twenty posts, and nobody has mentioned where their name comes from? Surely that's a record...

[Runner]

Love love love Steely Dan ... oh and re above post I think William Boroughs was involved somewhere
