Show Notes
Where would Donald Fagen and Walter Becker have ended up if not for the cream of the crop musicians that they tortured, uh I mean produced on those incredibly perfect Steely Dan records? Nowhere fast. The Steely Dan all-stars should have their own movie! The best we can do here is give them their own episode, and reach out to the greatest if not the coolest Steely Dan fan we know, the surprisingly delightful Oscar Jordan. We get back into our top ten list, with All-Stars 5-1 highlighted here in Top Ten Steely Dan All-Stars Part 2.
