Steely Dan are hacks??
>>130351800Why does that make them hacks?
>splicing together different world class solos to make the perfect solowow that makes me wish more bands did that, I did that with my own songs solo once where I liked certain parts of each take so I had to mix them together. Reminds me of What Goes on by TVU where Lou Reed couldn't be satisfied by his solo takes so he layered them on top and it created a unique dirty sound that to this day sounds like nothing else (probably because most artists would think that was too sloppy to put to the record)
>>130351800I start to like them less as they became more and more of a studio band, Can't Buy a Thrill is their best album
>>130351886I don't know. I just wanted to be cool like you guys.
>>130351886They aren’t playing guitar in their own music. Then they mix and match several different guitar parts amongst different people, and pass it off as a conventional guitar solo or section. Studio spergs and hacks.
>>130351954Well you failed
>>130351958they also didnt play the drums.are drums the only real music?
>>130351942It’s their only good album. Might as well be their greatest hits.
>>130351969They played zoomers by having them believe they’re some underrated band lol
Deacon Blues is a 4chan meme
>>130351966I always do.
if theyre hacks, explain how they made Gaucho
>>130351800Steely Dan is based OP is a faggot
>>130351958How dare they get the best possible players, select the best possible takes and execute their vision as clearly as possible.
>>130352401They had about 3 or 4 good songs. Settle down zoomer.
>>130351958>the (virtuoso) keyboard player and the bass player didn't play guitar (except he did, when he felt his style fit the song). Lurk moar. Learn about something before spouting. It'll broaden your appeal. >>130352465This guy fucks.
zoomers are quickly arriving at listening to whatever jew AI tells them.
>>130351886They're just using very expensive samples. They buy other people's talent and pass it off as their own.
>>130351800That's pretty soulless, always been a doobie brothers chad
All that just to sound like elevator music
>>130353485Cooked that gay nigga. Imagine getting filtered by Steely Dan. Couldn't be me!
Aja is a great album.

>>130355529steely dan brainstormed their albums KEK
