So many of us are reelin in the years, just passin time with little direction or purpose. The things we think are precious I can't understand. Time is our most valuable resource. Everyone get the same amount. Are you investing it wisely or spending it uselessly? Time is short,(1cori n t h i a n s 7 : 2 9 ) . Get to know The Lord, be certain of eternity. To those that have an ear to hear. Rev Rob

Anyone else hear an occasional lisp? "After all the things we've done and theen"?

I don't know what copy of the book you have, but in mine Steely Dan III from Yokohama is a dildo, which if I remember correctly gets crushed in the nether regions of a masculine lady. Hard to explain. Just go read the damn thing, people.
This IS the best of the best in Danville.
Love this tune - Brings back college memories and makes me sentimental!
Great Steely Dan album. A must have for the collection. Rev Rob
great great song loved steely dan
they had several great hits
AWESOME!!!!! ! ! ! ! ! Catchy, too.
classic rock rapping it freaking great stuff so listen up. get down to the dan, you'll have a lifetime of pure genuis, like frank zappa, but radio friendly. i went to 8 shows, and there was a young boy next to his mom, she told me, and i quote" he had a choice, go see kiss,mettali c a , o r brooks and dunn, all good choices, but he said, no mom i want to go see steely dan" they might be wierd lyrics but, this is good stuff. thank little

The incredible guitar solos which occur in the middle of this song and at the end, were voted among the best solo guitar licks in history and are otherwise widely recogized as such. Played by Elliot Randall, a (sadly) little known guitar genius. Long live Elliot Randall. As far as I know, his only solo effort was an LP called "Randall's Island" which is also a classic, very hard to find. I have the original vinyl, but woe is me, nothing to play it on.
The name comes from a typewriter in the novel "Naked Lunch"; the typewriter has an orgasm whenever something good is written.
when i was 43 years old i took the high school exams ged and passed. i was so proud and happy. at 52 i still like this sond

Yep I think its a William Burroughs novel (naked lunch?) forgot the title but its a dildo. Some say this is their favorite steely solo (J. page, I think Becker) I think they mean the opening solo my friend says the middle one. The opening solo is so amazing.

classic!

Steely Dan is the name for a vibrator or dildo, and I'm nearly certain that's where it came from.
Where did the name 'Steely Dan' come from? anyone,anyon e , a n y o n e ?
This song and "Bad Moon Rising" by Credence are so incredibly depressing once you pay attention to the lyrics.
Loved this song for years before I even discovered SD (I was into 'classic'). I get SO FAR BEHIND sometimes, duh. JACK SMITH is right - has 'all the right stuff' of Fagen and Becker.
Featuring Jeff "Skunk" Baxter (of the Doobies), Elliott Randall, Denny Dias, and Walter Becker (bass).
This has it all, great melody, great lyrics, great guitars (both lead & duets), great vocals. Perhaps the most perfect R&R record ever - to my ears anyway!!!!
