oh no...I'm about to become one of those Steely Dan guysit started with the accessible tracks like Peg and Do It Again, but now I'm in the album cuts...
>>128291017It comes with age.
violator isn't even their best album
I've been a Steely Dan guy since I was 15
>>128291043Yes it is, but Aja is not Steely Dan’s best album. (It’s 2nd best after Countdown to Ecstasy)
>>128291017For me, it's The Royal Scam
>>128291017I came to love SD. How dod you come across them? I'm the only brown (Hindu) i know that does. Went to see them when they last last toured i was pretty much the only brown in a 15k crowd>>128291357>>128291445Cliché but objectively it's Aja
I love the deep vocals on Peg. Fills me with glee everytimes he says>It's your favorite foreign movieor>it sure looks good on you

>>128291017For me it was Can't Buy a Thrill, perfect pop rock album
>>128292080That's a close second for me. I fell in love with the band as soon as I heard Only A Fool.
>>128291357>Countdown to Ecstasynot sure why that one isn't in more steely dan convos. boston rag is a favorite of mine, but also i'm not sure why more zappa fags don't flock to dan, they have a lot in common
WHEN JOSIE COMES HOMESO GOODSHE'S THE PRIDE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD
>>128292328Lol
>>128291017They get boring after a while, not enough content.
>>128291017Good. You're becoming an adult with refined taste. >>128291043Beat me to it again>>128291357Sorry but Ajais next level. Are you sure you haven't just overplayed it?Objectively factual rankings:Aja > Gaucho > RS >CBaT > CtE > Nightfly > > > > > KL > PL > TAN > > > > > > the other reunion album and other solo stuff.
>>128295757>zoomiest ADHD post of the dayGet off your phone for a while.
>>128295757untrue. the unique thing about them is that they work great as low engagement elevator vibes music, but you can really dig deep into the complex structures and weird lyrics if you wish to
>one of those Steely Dan guyswe're called Danners
Steely Dan fucking sucks
>>128298564That's not very Danners of you.
>>128298516I'm bananners for Danners>>128298564FUCK YOU
>they call Alabama the crimson tide, we’ll call me Deacon Bluesliterally, unironically, what do they mean by this?
>>128291017Many are saying this
>>128298680The Alabama university college football team is a team with a long decorated history of winning and success thus they were branded the honorable title the crimson tide. The character in deacon blues is a jaded hipster who like many /mu/tants has a storied history of failure, adversity and being an alienated loser and for these efforts he deserves an honorable title for everything hes been through
>>128291747for me, it’s the Michael McDonald harmonieshttps://youtu.be/jqebJJ8O4yk?si=rIyxMEv4pM0mSULZ
>>128291357Can’t Buy a Thrill
>>128295757They actually get better after a while.
>>128296625dorky faggots like this are why the fanbase is trash now
