If you're new here, in addition to hosting a music podcast (link in bio), I also maintain a page with some fun Steely Dan resources:

Meme of girl explaining to boy. Caption:

SEE, WENDEL TECHNICALLY PLAYED ALL THE DRUMS ON GAUCHO BUT THE THING IS WENDEL WASN'T A PERSON IT WAS ACTUALLY A 12-BIT DRUM MACHINE AND SAMPLER THAT ROGER NICHOLS INVENTED BECAUSE BECKER AND FAGEN WANTED TOTAL CONTROL OVER THE DRUM SOUNDS AND IT EVEN GOT ITS OWN PLATINUM ALBUM

A Steely Dan meme with a blue flag. The caption reads: "Marked safe from my old man back in oregon today". This is a very clever play on words that references the song "Don't Take Me Alive" from the 1976 masterwork "The Royal Scam".

Text message meme that reads: "Hello this is Donald Fagen from Steely Dan, I lost my credit card and I need money for a plane ticket so I can fly to your city to perform. Can you send me some money? I'll bring Michael McDonald

Hello this is Michael McDonald"

A meme of Elmo (actual Sesame Street Elmo, not the loser from the birdsite) looking at a pile of what appears to be cocaine, labeled "steely dan". On the other side is a pile of fruits labeled "100 million songs on spotify". Guess which pile Elmo nosedives into?

New playlist 25 LATE NIGHT JAZZ FUNK GREATS - mostly fusion, mostly 70s, mostly groovy, all best heard at night.

Not a bad path into jazz! One of my favorites I've made.
