Most of their tunes....way too many to list, but my personal favorite is "Deacon Blues". Not necessarily the guitar, just the song as a whole.

There's a guy that pops in every now & then, Scott Lerner, that plays some killer Steely Dan. Do a search on the forum for him....good stuff!!!



***EDIT...I just did a search & it appears the Steely Dan clip was removed. You can check Scott's music out @ www.scottlernermusic.com though & get a pretty good idea of how good it was. :13:

Wow! Deacon Blues is my favorite song too! This song has an incredible saxaphone solo, and vocal harmonies.

I also love Babylon Sisters.

I'm a big fan of Scott Lerner. Have you checked out his jazz fusion videos he filmed at home? I'd love to hear him play Steely Dan.

Heh Steely dan talk on a mostly Metal minded board
Anything Larry played on, I have heard tons of music from that area, it is brilliance and elegance.

I wasn't really into Steely Dan back when it was current - too "fancy". But now that I'm more... ahem, mature I've been listening to them a lot.

I found one tune on their "Show Biz Kids" compilation that I had never even heard before, Boston Rag. The solo is a bit simpler that the usual fare, but Jeff Baxter ROCKS.

I love his solo on "Rikki". too.
