Ruby: whoever owned the rights to the album design could sue you. best bet would be to find out who owned the rights to the design in which you were interested and try to obtain a license (in exchange for a cut of the revenue from hat/shirt sales) to use the design.
open question is who owns the rights to all the album designs, could be the record company, could be artist who did the design, or could be Donald and Walter, or any combination thereof.

Ruby: I would imagine that the order of songs on any new release is cause for discussions amongst artists involved in a project. How the songs suit them, and how the various offerings intertwine. Is it a personal thing, how it appeals to them, or do they try to get into the head of the listener to provide the ideal listening experience. I hope they do it for themselves.
Your particular preferences, as outlined, would be superb - Energy derived from listening to "perfect" music is hard to duplicate.
Ruby, are you going to New Orleans? Really? Do me a favour? Find the perfect B&B, or Inn, with an old fashioned tub, second floor balcony and a view of the night life. Have a soothing, steamy bath, and soak away the day. Then, after you are ready to relax in an easy chair or couch, pour a couple of glasses of Jim Beam or Southern Comfort, and beam me down to your place. We can get a slight glow on, and people watch. "On the Dunes" can waft through the background. "Ruby, pour me another glass of that fine amber nectar."

Howdy, DanFanGangLanders!!!
Yeah, I kinda sorta think I got it, y'all. If you haven't visited Oleander's, Edd Cote's, or Tomas Broberg's websites, you most certainly have some most unfortunate SD deprivation. Gang, these are GREAT, a lot of time, work, and money went into their composition----and a fantastic tribute to the two best composers/arrangers in the biz-----Walter and Donald. Helluva experience to know that so many cherish these two dudes and their music as much as we do.
Wondering if Donald and Walter ever come into St. Al's "room" and watch how we are? Kinda sociopathic, kinda weird, kinda sorta like Don and Walt---LOL!!!
Keep-it-up, wear your fez, take more doses of Viagra----keep getting laid to the sensuality of Steely Dan's very sweet music and enjoy!!!!

Mayor Rudy - Yeah, a "pumkinfest" would sound like a great time to someone that lives in Podunkville, PA. I'm also not surprised that someone from your geographic location would have such a hard time with the obvious. You see, the REAL Mayor Rudy, the mayor of MY city, would have seen that I was merely defending myself. In fact, the REAL Mayor Rudy would be wondering (just like I am) what the fuck you're even talking about. And, he would most definitely sue you for defamation of character (if nothing else) and probably suggest that you change your name to something more appropriate for where you live... like, say, Elmer Noodnik.
Lester - I guess if you didn't know the Rock & Soul Revue CD existed after almost seven years, you WOULD think Brian Sweet's book rules.
Gold Keith - I sent Clas my '97 version of "Your Gold Keith I". If you're worried about him taking all the proceeds from your songs to buy a computer for his home and air fare to New Orleans, I've got a great entertainment lawyer. He says no one can fuck me, not even Steely Dan.
Lisa - Did I say King Crimson? I thought I said Bob Telson.
Geena - Are you trying to say that I'm not an equal opportunity flamer?
Josie - I have no doubt that you're a very nice nitwit. However, you were wrong about me. I am an extremely happy asshole. Hell, I have a great life, and I wouldn't trade it for anyone else's on this guest book... well, except for maybe Oleander's.

Geena: Now I'm excited! I can't wait to sample all that Cajun cooking! There's only one thing I dread - the humidity. My hair will rival KinkySoNSo's. Are sun hats in fashion? Let's use fabric paint and make Steely Dan hats.

YGK: How's the guy with the smooth, sexy voice? Fully recovered from the operation yet?
I thought of an idea - why not compromise, and send just one little snippet from a composition? That way, if Clas is true to his words, you'll be a part of the gb cd, and if he's not, then you only risked a tiny fragment. Just an idea...Jesus: Thank you for actually doing what you said you could do, but I couldn't. I'm eternally grateful! You changed history for me, proving again that you are the MASTER.

M. C. P.: www.tunnelrecords.com Good Luck!
Tiny: I apologize. My life is boring. I live in a town of about 4000 men, women, children and animals total; in a square area about twice the size of Manhattan. I am an almost 40 engineer, so by definition I live a boring life - but you know that from reading Dilbert, and I assume you can read since you did read my other post. I don’t post often because my life is boring, and I try not to make derogatory statements about others. I don’t live in an exciting foreign country or city like NY or LA - although this is cyberspace - so I could be anyone or live anywhere. I can tell you that John Glenn is alive today because I approved the drawings, blueprints and hardware that are keeping him breathing right now. I personally touched every part that that does this.
Since they check our pee here, beer is about the only vice left. I am sure no other guestbook posters have ever enjoyed a beer (except YGK who I have seen have a few) and have the luxury of working in retail or the arts so they can try anything they like (sorry that is not meant to be a slam). I also hunt and fish, enjoy college football and basketball and ride a Harley, but these are boring things as well. I did not realize that enjoying SD was limited to non boring activities, especially based on some of the Guestbook posts of late. Please let me know what you do for non boring activities and what non boring topics you write about so that I can get a better a better clue.

NCAA Basketball: I think this is UCONN’s year. Most of the residents of this state still have nightmares of Christen Laitner’s shot. Coach K told a group of reporters last year the whoever won that game was going to be champs - too bad they were both in the same region. This is UCONN’s turn for a "homer" since east regional is in Boston - no more getting shipped to NC to play NC or LA to play UCLA in the regionals.

Los Angeles 1974 March 20, 1974

How many ACC students does it take to change a light bulb? Well
At Duke it takes two. One to change the bulb and one more to explain how they did it every bit as well as any Ivy Leaguer.
At Virginia it takes four. One to screw in the bulb, and three to figure out how to get high off the old one.
At Clemson it takes five. One to change it, two to talk about how Danny Ford would have done it, and two to throw the old bulb at South Carolina students (or Tommy West).
At Wake Forest it takes six. One to change it, two to mix the drinks, and three to find the perfect J. Crew outfit to wear for the occasion.
At FSU it takes seven, and each one gets credit for four semester hours for it.
At UNC it takes eight. One to screw it in, and seven to discuss how much
brighter it shines during basketball season.
At Georgia Tech it takes eleven. Ten to study problem, check the wiring and power supply, and to propose alternate designs of a longer life bulb, and one to call a friend a Clemson to find out where to buy new bulbs.
At NC State it takes fifteen. One to screw in the bulb, two to buy the Skoal, and twelve to shout, "GO TO HELL, TAR HEELS, GO TO HELL!!!"
At Maryland it takes five. One to screw it in, and four to convince ":yooz guys" they are a Southern school and they do it better than "those damn Yankees".

Kinky: So hey, don't you just get off on all these people talking about you? that was an awful post, until I realized that you weren't serious at all.
Legal types and friends thereof: thanx for your concern and consideration - I had a very unfortunate experience back in '82 in California, which makes me extra sensitive/careful, expecially when an overseas 'blind submission' CD is ripe for abuse - Iu've never been the recipient of one of his phone calls or e-mails. I mean, what is the benefit to Clas, to produce the CD for other people that he has never met? C'mon, if you pull yourself away from the situation a bit, and imagine telling the 'post fraud' story, wouldn't you nod your head and say, "why didn't they think of that?"
Clas: you foolish Swede - if you think that calling me names will bait me into sending you material, your as smart as you are American. I will send you material once you correspond directly with me, and not on a public forum, AND you give me the names of those others, with e-mail addresses, that are sending material.
Are you imposting again, Flagtwit?Kinlkly, Roy, Ed, others who are sending/have sent material? I would appreciate an e-mail me as soon as you can regarding the above.

My response: "Well, I do have Frank Zappa's "Waka Jawaka"; "Grand Wazoo"; and, "Roxy and Elsewhere". As is typical of the unknowing, they looked at me kinda funny---LOL!

Tonight, as the shuttle eclipsed the third hole in Orion's belt, I was relieved to hear that Senator Glenn had finally stopped squirting Tang at his fellow ship-mates and appeared to be "settling down" from the chaos that had left the Ohio Senator with a 2" x 2" bandage above his right eye--inflicted when his six fellow crew members were forced to immobilize him after he suddenly screamed, "Bonzai", and tried to strap the shuttle's drag chute to his own back. Fortunately, a VHS copy of "Point Break" had been stowed on the ship as a precautionary measure and after the Senator was convinced he was really Patrick Swayze with wrinkly make-up, the legendary cog of the space program finally fell asleep, suckling a space-food stick.
It's tremendously important that science weigh the effects of space travel on senior citizens. Only they have the knowledge that the Earth has been doomed by their own short-sightedness and only they can prepare us for the new "Interplanetary Normandy" we shall fight to inhabit. Let us offer a prayer right now to those exemplary mentors who robbed social security for their own comfort and stole the future from a billion children in attempt to stay their own demise. And where do they dream of living? Sun City.
Fact: Every shuttle launch violently extracts enough oxygen from the atmosphere to "feed" Manhattan for a year. (That's $422,000,000 to you pencil pushers.)
Fact: The "burn" of the shuttle's boosters is particularly damaging to the earth's ozone layer which must contract, concentrate and funnel oxygen molecules to an "unnatural" place in order for the vehicle to leave the earth's gravity. (Can you say, "ion"?)
Fact: Attempts to mimic gravity in space have all failed. Bone degenerates no matter how much one reps against electro-magnetic resistance. It takes almost a year for a Mir cosmonaut to walk on the earth again after 6 months in zero gravity.

My apologies if I wrongly accused you. However, every post that you've ever directed at me has been nothing but mean and nasty, so can you blame me for feeling the way i do? I don't believe I've ever said anything to anybody with the exception of yesterday that would hurt anyone in this Guestbook and I believe I deserve the respect I give to others in return. If I've done or said something in the past to annoy or hurt you in anyway, please let me know. I think we can work this out. This Geena-bashing on the Gb is getting a bit tiresome and yesterday's post was my limit. I'm even a little embarrased that I had to be so offensive, that's not my style.
I don't hate you either Kinky, I don't have it in my heart to hate anyone, and I wasn't flattering myself either, I was just trying to make a point as to why would anyone go to great lengths to flame me, if they disliked me so much. I just wouldn't bother.
I don't lose sleep over those who don't like me, as I've stated in a previous post, I'm not here to win a popularity contest. I like to joke around here just as much as you and everyone else. I just can't understand that when I do, I get flamed by certain individual/s, when certain others do, they're respected. It's really not fair.

Schwinn--I'm beginning to think that "swoony" is synonymous with "Schwinny."
Rose--count me in on the showah!
Clas--Jazz? Dan? Jazz? Dan? It's two--two--TWO fests in one! Sorry. That's an American thing. It's from an old commercial that only Roy will remember. But honey I will be there!
Herm--Listen, I can get some chevre, homemade mozzarella, and sweet cheese patties in cream that will knock your loincloth off. High in calcium and protein too!
Tonight: Steely TRIPLE play on the radio while waiting for two slices (with CHEESE) at the local carryout: KC, Dr. Wu, and DTMA! I was crazy dancing on the counter while my son said, "PLEEEASE, mom. You're EMBARRASSING me."

A bunch of us went out for the day last week and all five of them knew he "had the ring"--only I didn't. On the pretense of taking a picture we stopped on this bridge only they moved away and took the video camera, Josh got down on one knee and they took video of the whole thing, the nutcakes :)!
Rose Darling, Geena: you guys are SWEETIES! :) Planning a cyber-shower for me--*snif*! Yes, Rose, I am engaged for real!!!!!!! (Geena, did you ask me something else, I forget) Now that I'm a fiance (how I LOVE that word!) my Friday and Saturday nites are pretty much *taken* but it's a really FUN suggestion!

Geena - No, I believe it's you that's wrong here. Had you read the post correctly (which is something I notice you seem to be incapable of doing), you would have noticed the lack of the word "Kinky" in the name column. You say you had no idea I'd be "so cowardly as to come back hiding under another handle"? Well, you're right about one thing... you have no idea. I believe I've been through this before... if you already believe me to be such a mean and nasty person, unafraid to post whatever I want, regardless of how cruel it might be... then why in the HELL would I EVER need to post under an alias?! And never in your wildest spiral staircase fantasy would I ever tell someone I'd "tie him up til his ears bleed", let alone someone like Stranger. Oh, but I do agree with you in that there is a fine line between love and hate. But, don't flatter yourself, honey, I don't hate you.
Stranger (and a large majority of the rest of you) - If you're going to try to insult me (or who you think is me), could you at least move past the juvenile "blow me", "bite me", "go masturbate", "stop masturbating", "go fuck yourself", "fuck you", "fuckwad", "fuckhead", "asswipe", "asshole", "get that thing outta yer ass" remarks? I realize you probably haven't had much practice insulting someone since junior high... and it shows.
Tiptoe - Stranger wouldn't have any idea whether Donald or Walter ever made fun of anyone or hurt their feelings. Afterall, we're far better fans than he is.
Joker - Hey, Rudy, long time no speak. I see you've changed your handle. You went from being Rude to being a Joke. Either way, they both fit you well.
GoldKeith - I thought your post was hilarious... til I realized you were serious.
Clas - Excellent response to GoldKeith, but you were wrong about one thing. (you know... the stupid part)
Is there some kind of unwritten rule here that states that anyone that posts under the name "Josie" must be a complete nitwit?

YGK; ok, let me explain this again (for the last time);
I spoke to Lisa a couple of months ago, she came up with the idea of making a CD with all regulars who plays on the GBook "The GuestBook Allstars Album" or something. I said I could gather the material and master it and toast it down on Cd's. On my expense.
The CD will be sent to the regulars here on the GuestBook. That's all. And your songs will be "flagged" as copyrighted. By the way, the copyright laws are the same here as it is in USA. Do you think I could take "Kid Charlemange" and call it my own?I don't think you are stupid but I think you're a lier, and I suspect your "songs" are nonexisting. So it's theirfor you keep nagging about "copyright" there and "laws" here So take your bullshit back to the junkyard you're living on, mr Big Wig.
Rose Darling; sure, just let me know when.
SO, we are down at the countryhouse and Pompe is very happy. He is sleeping now, after a long walk along the stream. When tomorrow comes maybe I have a some lyrics about that walk. I've already got the title;
"I shiver while Pompe drinks water from the river"

Have loved the Dan since I was a little kid, thanks to my parents. Saw them a couple of summers ago and was very impressed. The guitarist was a little more straight ahead rock-n-roll than i would have expected, but it was still awesome. For me, F and D are probably two of the most brilliant songwriters in popular music. The melodies are so convoluted it's amazing...and is there any band that defies categorization more than Steely Dan. I especially like "Black Cow," "Hey 19," "Here at the Western World," "Deacon Blues," and "Kid Charlemagne." The latter's the best...I mean who ever heard of a disco-fusion-rock song?!

Ole - I find CPD's lyrics *too* edgy and in-your-face. They deal with a lot of really ugly people with no humanity to redeem them (with the exception of "Mr. Whitekeys"). SD frequently populate their songs with losers and creeps of various kinds, but somehow manage to convey that they're interesting people all the same. CPD hasn't managed that trick yet. I find BBVD far more listenable. Granted their lyrics are pretty tame (or even lame, on some tracks), but their piano player is *aces*. And that bass line theme on "King of Swing" is grand. But for me, the music always takes precedence over lyrics (even when its the Dan).
One & All - I can attest that SD *were* on Letterman three years ago, right at the end of the show. No interview. No banter with Mr. Gaptooth. And they played "Josie", which is one of my least favorite tracks in the SD canon. Overall, a big disappointment.
Ruby - It took me the longest time to get used to "Deacon Blues" *not* breaking in the middle like it did on my 8-track of Aja.

freakin' p.r,
it's been asked before around here why it took them so long to make donald the lead singer & i've never seen a definitive answer. but they were clearly experimenting & i guess donald saw himself more as a musician, composer, arranger, and sort of discovered his way as a singer as time went along & his voice fit better & better with the stuff they were writing.geena,
lovely answer to the swine, but i expect we'll hear from him/her or whatever it is again. problem is there's no manson family to join anymore so this person hangs around here instead. you say you're coming to visit me mrs. stranger? dynamite. do it. just call or come by. bring linguini.

FPR: We were all just waiting for Edd or Steve V. to answer 'em.
Time Out of Mind Handclaps: They're real, sort of. Real people clapped and were probably sampled by a computer or Wendell (which was mostly used for drum sampling and sequencing). The handclaps were the placed on the tape track over and over in the appropriate spots, Donald probably got them down to the microsecond - that's why they sound so perfect, as opposed to the wilder clapping on "Teahouse on the Tracks (which was still probably sampled and sequenced to sound "spontaneous")
My understanding is that Donald didn't really want to be the lead. They hired David Palmer to do that originally. But I guess he just coundn't put the right amount of sneer in his voice and find the right phrasing to reflect the intent, vision, and meaning of the songs. It just turned into too much of a pain trying to get others to interpret the songs - even though it would have been interesting to have had Michael McDonald sing lead on a few - like "Bad Sneakers" or "Any World" where does backup. But with a few hits under the belt with DF singing, why mess with a good thing.

Howdy, DanFanGangLand!!!
Oleander, what a pleasure to go to your website and see the lyrics for Steely Dan songs, your analysis, and comments from the DanGang!! Truly, an enjoyable experience. Now, wait until I send you some of my thoughts about some songs.
As some of you know, I had the luxury of seeing SD live at the Oklahoma City Civic Center Music Hall in 1973. All because I was a long-hair, Harley ridin', college student, good samaritan. I noticed a dude in a nice suit next to a Jaguar with the hood up, and being a mechanic, I stopped my bike---went over and discovered it was out-of-gas---LOL!!
I told him, "Hey, hop on (there were no helmet laws in Oklahoma---still aren't today) and we will go get some gas." I asked the attendant for a can, some gas, and looked over at the dude to pay them----he shrugged his shoulders and said, "All I have are checks and credit cards", (most gas stations didn't accept them back in 1971!) So, I gave my driver's license, a couple of bucks for the gas----went back to the Jag---primed it, and it started. He couldn't thank me enough----and, I just said, "Help someone else out sometime, if you get the chance." The dude said, "If I can help you out, let me know"; and, he left me his business card. He was the owner of Rainbow Records, the primo ticket distributor for all concerts in the Oklahoma City area at that time. He said, "Just call this special number, ask for my personal secretary----tell her how many tickets and what concerts you want to see, and she will give them to you."
Well, needless to say, I was calling every week and, WOW, this dude WAS for real-----saw Steely Dan front row center section, Chicago, James Gang, Frank Zappa, Pat Metheny, etc.-----etc. All told, probably I milked that for 150-200 concerts for the next six or seven years. Moral of the story: Help someone with a Jag out if you are riding a Harley-Davidson (mine just happened to be a '51 panhead at that time)!!
Fast forward to today----didn't get a chance to see the SD band in the "Citizen" or "Art Crimes" tours; so, Donald and Walter---please come back to TexAss, on your next tour, please????? And, it is amazing the places I go and hear Steely Dan songs today---yesterday, I went into my secretarial staff's office and "Josie" was playing-----went into the service shop and "Do It Again" happened to come on; then, went into another person's office and heard "My Old School"-----WOW, what a helluva day!!!
More to come . . .
Saludos, and have a super fine day, Gang!!!Michael

RazorBoy: I appreciate your thoughtful answer to my song order query. I've never been disappointed when I've heard SteelyDan in any way, ever! But I've noticed that certain songs played sequentially create a certain ambiance. Like, on Citizen disc 4, Deacon Blues/Home At Last is an outstanding combo for me. Also, Kid C/Caves of Altimira/DTMAlive is another one.
Do you think the artists place songs on their albums randomly or in a certain order? Who ultimately decides these things?
Remember 8 tracks? Didn't it bug you when a song was cut in half when the tracks changed? I had Royal Scam on 8track. I am happy to say, no songs were compromised.rb

Wrong asswipe, if you read my post correctly (which is something I notice you seem to enjoy doing), I didn't say that SD never appeared on Letterman, I just missed them. Since you're perfect and all-knowing, I guess that would make me less than perfect in your eyes. I notice that you've been hiding out since I called a truce, but I knew you'd do that, I had no idea you would be so cowardly as to come back hiding under another handle, oh how big and bad you must be. Let me give you a hint: next time you have the urge to flame me, alter your writing style Kinky! You know there's a thin line between love and hate and there must be something about me that you love or you'd never take the time to notice my posts...Perfect people don't bother with the less than perfect...bite me fuckwad!Goodbye everyone...

What the hell's going on here in the last couple of days? I jump on to occupy the part of my brain that thinks it's neccessary to clean my cave, and I see all this garbage on here. Makes me want to go back to my cavework. Stranger, Geena, and whoever else got lit up, don't take it personally. Let me do that for you. I've been learning some pagen rituals lately, and I'm pretty sure I can cast a spell that turns that poster into parchment. Once completed, we can all scribble graffiti on him, then set it afire.
Now, look, he's got me confrontational now. I don't want to be like this. I hate fighting.
Oh, and cheese isn't really good for you.
I wish I had more to say, but I merely wanted to address this issue as soon as I saw it. Sadly, I would have prefered to have more of an opinion. Maybe it will come to me later. In a vision. In the mail. Maynard is supposed to come by today.

Ruby - The order of the tracks is an issue if the only thought is to do it chronologically - How predictable it would be to start with "CBAT" and end with "Gaucho" or solo material. Instead, pick the tracks in no particular order, in a fashion that TRUE Steely Dan fans might like them to appear. Go all over the spectrum of music - Like the wild kind of impromptu dance style that you refered to in your last post. The great thing is, a TRUE SD fan would never feel let down whatever the sequence. We just want to hear the music. Myself, start off with "True Companion," or "Time Out Of Mind," and end up with "Daddy Don't Live In That New York City No More," or "Tomorrow's Girls." ...a virus wearin pumps and pearls."

Mr. La--So it is you! Yes, I remember some of those conversations about smoking, etc. Glad you're back, and the wry take on RB was great.
stevev--I got e'd by FiG too. Will anyone 'fess up to being him? Hey, pour me a cup while you're at it, eh?
Docta Mu--SNZ are delightful. The trumpeter lives in/ near Asheville, and guests a lot with visiting musicians, from Bioritmo to Los Lobos. They have a unique swing sound. I must put in another plug for Cherry Poppin' Daddies. They've been together since '89, so are not exactly recent bandwagon leapers. When they started out in Eugene, that hotbed of urban culture, they dressed in punk/ alt clothes, Nirvana-like. Then they opened for the Mighty Mighty Bosstones, who told them the cognitive dissonance with the music was a little distracting. So they went to suits (not zoot). I think the association with zoot suits is historical, as the Pachuco riots happened in the '40's when swing was king. Their horn section is tight, wicked, and induces vertigo. (I found the horns on Big Bad etc. smooth--like butta, baby--but overall I thought they [BBVD] were boring.) CPD has terrific, literate, witty, sometimes coarse & in-your-face lyrics. Not as great as the Dan's, but sometimes in the same neighborhood IMHO--check out "Mister White Keys." Swing is like any other interesting genre which gets faddified--lots of good stuff in it, but unfortunate overexposure and quick knockoffs. Happening now to salsa, I hear.
Schwinn--That was swoony. May I print it for my permasqueeze for our next one?
Myra--Two of my very best friends (not counting Geena) live in Boston, and would be delighted to be surrogate parents for him. I think getting into Berklee would be the chance of a lifetime. I also have two relatives there in college and grad school--e me if you'd be interested in knowing more about them & their experiences.

Straniero,
You need not doubt me, I behaved! You really think that was a scam? This carwash had a beautiful winding staircase where I quietly tiptoed down holding my shoes in my hand so I wouldn't wake up the servants. I should have listened to you back then and I wouldn't have this memory today. I know what you mean about East St. Louis Toodle-oo, one of my least favorites.Rose Darling,
The Pumpkin Festival was great! Have you ever heard of it? It's in Keene, NH and admission is a carved pumpkin which they display along with the others and light them all up at night.
Talk to me about the cyber shower.Clas,
yes, Clas I understand, I think?Sociable Hermit,
Don't listen to A Fifth of Dementia, this person must have thought this was a porno chat room or something. It's your cave, you do what you want. You have lots of friends here.David in the Florida Room,
I don't know about t-shirts, but can you tell me about Iron Butterfly? I heard that one of the band members (can't remember the name) mysteriously disappeared a few years ago, has he ever been found?DrMu,
I also wish you had loaded the VCR that night. The night they were supposed to be on, I watched a promo of Letterman announcing his guests that evening and he mentioned Steely Dan. I stayed up for this and there was no mention of SD during the entire program nor did they play. Did CBS screw up again as usual?Myra Eyefull,
Glad to hear you had a wonderful anniversary, mine is coming up in a few months, not nearly as long as yours, but still thankful we made is this far.Boston has a reputation for having some of the best schools in the country and Berklee is one of them. If your son is serious about a jazz music education, then Boston is a good place to get his musical roots started. Some of the prominent alumni include: Branford Marsalis, Quincy Jones, Greg Hawkes, Walter Beasley, Arif Mardin Tracy Bonham, Elliot Easton, Melissa Etheridge, Bruce Hornsby, Paula Cole, Alf Clausen, Bruce Cockburn, Al DiMeola, Jan Hammer, Juliana Hatfield, and yes, even our beloved DONALD FAGEN went there. Boston is also a major college town, therefore a lot of students here he can become friends with. The city is safe and boasts one of the lowest crime rates in years, dropped by 50% in the last 3 years alone. If he's careful and streetsmart, just like anywhere else, he'll be ok. Hey, I grew up in this city and I've survived so far.
RubyBaby,
Thank you so much for your friendly advice. I'm going to try your remedies and then make a phone call. I'm feeling a lot better today.

Hey Jim (Wide World of Sports) McKay:
Any chance any rare tracks (i.e. 'Mobile Home', 'Dallas', 'Sail The Waterway') will be included on those re-issues......or do we have to plunk down another $20(?) for the same 40 (albeit sonically enhanced) minutes.......
speaking of sonically enhanced and rarities...does anyone remember or possess the Quadrophonic (not hydrophonic) version of 'Can't Buy A Thrill'?....some collectors magazine stating that it had two fifferent covers????...anyone.....
also did anyone else get that e mail from 'Fagen is God' @ AOL....about some compilation for trade???
re;Kid Charlemage lyrics: check the original 1976 sleeve: it is 'champion' (not italian)....and it's 'day-glo'....not dago.....
re:Kathy in Memphis....unfortunately I am not Steely Dan and do not have tickets to their upcoming tour......(Darn!)....but having immersed myself in Becker/Fagen music for 20 some odd years I can safely say that my life is somewhat of a reflection of their colorful imagery...................a cross between Kerouac and ....Stephen Dedalus (i.e. Ulysses)!

Rose: The New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festivas happens every year, the last weekend in April and the first weekend in May. It's a giant outdoor party, at the New Orleans Fairgrounds.
There are about 8 to 10 stages on the grounds, 4 main stages on the outside of the track and the others located on the grounds and in the Grandstands of the track. The weather is usually awesome, low 70's breezy. The other attraction is the FOOD! One word, Killer! The music is not all Jazz, it's a combination of Jazz, R&B, Gospel, Blues, Zydeco, and other stuff. There are also night concerts at major venues in the city. All major hotels offer shuttle service to the fairgrounds.
Visit the web site.
It's a cool time to be in the city. And a great place for the Dan to play while the GB'ers hold a Dan-a-palooza at Pascal Manally's.

Geena: They did show up...3 years ago and played the heck out of "Josie." Paul Shaffer and the horns from the CBS orchestra moved over, as is their custom. to play backup. The had those stands in front of the horn and rhythm section with an enscripted "SD" in front of them. Dave made some crack about that standing for "Sam Donaldson." With the large movement of ahlf the CBS orchestra over to SD, Dave also made a remark after the song about who they were working for, or something like that. Donald was sitting behind a Fender Rhodes on the right side (that seems to be his favorite spot) with Walter on guitar to the lefts. After they were through Dave did admit: "Hey, those guys are pretty good." To which Paul replied' "They're the best." Boy, I wish I had loaded the VCR that night - what was I thinking?
A loose connect between Coach K and Steely Dan. Mike Krzyzewski was a cadet at West Point when G. Gordon Liddy was DA in the area (Poughkeepsie). Daddy G was too busy beating up on the "bullies" from Bard (Ha!) to handle any Cadets. Coack K "served" under Bobby Knight later on.

Hello Fellow Danners, I was just thinking about the Steely T-shirts I've had over the years. Yellow w/Can't buy a thrill logo,
a Steely Dan "showbiz kids",black long sleeve AJA T,Kamakiriad T,And from '96 2 from that show.
The Shirts don't last too long when you proudly wear them to set up your gear on the gig.........my wife says I hold a wake over them before letting them go.
A good friend of mine has served as sound man/tour manager for many small "Iron Butterfly " tours (Yes, they're still alive) and their offshoot projects like Captain Beyond....anyway, you can go to
the Butterfly's web site and order T-shirts, Hats etc. Now if this is Possible, Why is it not possible to get Steely Dan T-shirts and other "Stuff" here in the Western World!
Please, I would like to hear comments on this from some of you....and maybe, just maybe it could be arranged!Clas- I'll send you some midi Dan...been kinda busy

I've been out for a while, and just looked back at some previous postings...
A Fifth Of Dimension: Umm, did I do something to you? Perhaps I'm acting too much like everyone always accuses me of acting, but your posting seemed to be directed at me personally when you said something to the order of, "sitting in your cave masturbating, listening to everyone tell you how creative you are". Just for the record, it was the "cave" part that tipped me off. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with people masturbating in their caves, that is, if that's your thing. But, ironically, it's not mine, so I wonder what would cause you to post such a disparaging comment such as that. As far as I know, I've never ridiculed, taunted, or teased anyone in the GB, so I can't figure why you'd do it, unless it's out of sheer ignorance, or a desperate attempt for attention. If it is the latter, then I guess it merely proves that person from a month ago correct, that in order to get noticed, you have to fling crap at someone and hope stinks enough for them to complain. Oh, how I despise being cliche. Then again, if I'm totally off about this, pardon me. I have a tendency to take things way too personally. It's both a radar and self-defense mechanism at the same time. Now on to other business.
Congatualtions to Myra and Roy! Hope you last another 100! (it's possible, you know. Not pretty, but possible.)And, Congratulations to Eviva! Hope you two are together just as long!
What happened to Steelie Danielle? I haven't seen a post from her in weeks.
I'm sure I have other things that I wanted to comment on, but I seem to be drawing a blank at the moment. I'm going to head out and wander the woods, smell the crisp autumn air and enoy the colors before they disappear. I will talk to you al very soon.

jOKER: I must say I agree with you on the whole SNZ thing..I love them and no one can compare. The sad thing is, barely anyone in any other place in the U.S. besides N.C. has heard of them. But the Daddy's are ALL to familiar unfortunately!
LESTER: I'm right here sweetie...miss you!!
Clas..I like it!
Well folks, I gotta be going now. I have to study for my spelling test! HAHAHAHAHAHA...BTW Count..that wasn't funny!!! LOLOLOLOLOL

Ya know, I was just reflecting on the sad state (OK, if that's too harse an assessement then passably entertaining)of the USA now (don't get all over me with personal interpretations to the contrary as you know you're only kidding yourself; we need some ultra-cool music to end this year/1999/decade) and we really need a new Dan album asap. Hey B & F I know you two cruise on your site periodically just to see how savagely decadent your cult following has become (is) so how about it?
All we need is ten new tunes (or seven or eight really long ones) which should get us through 2006 just fine. After all if old John Glenn three years shy of eight decades can put his snow boots on and climb inside a tin can called Discovery to be launched 3.6 million miles and 144 orbits just to "feel what it's like again" then you dudes can send another awesome one our way (crumbs for the masses)...what do you think?

Dr. MU:
cool. what do I win.BTW, the SNZ (squirrel-nut-zippers) were doing that swing stuff down the road in Carrboro LONG before it occurred to Setzer to form that faux-swing orchestra, and you can lump them Cherry-poppin daddies and big-bad-voodoo-pieces-of-poop into all them swing acts trying to cash in on the SNZ's mystique. to quote [to the best of me memory] Tom Maxwell, "Swing ain't got fuck-ass to do with zoot suits."
my better half taught me how to do some 'Shag' moves {we ARE in NC, for chrissake], but I don't think of shaggin' when it comes to listening to the Swing-style stuff that's out there. Most of it makes me want to.....turn it off & listen to the dan-

joKer: I'll have to declare you a winner...technically as Duke has played Wake Forest for the ACC championship (which only tires out teams before the NCAAs) at least twice that I can remember. Here's the series that came to mind: Mike Krzyzewski is the current Duke coach. Duke beat Notre Dame, and their despised coach Digger Phelps, way back in the '78 Final Four before losing to Kentucky in the finals. Lou "Granny" Holtz was the Notre Dame football coach for 9 years. Coach Holtz started his coaching career at......William & Mary at the time Dan sang that it won't do" Whew, that's the long way home.

Fezo: Think both Dean and K are both classy individuals with 2 national titles each...and they BOTH have done their share of whining. In fact, they both have that Fagenesque nasal quality about their voice. Dean's best team that didn't win a national title has to be the '84 team with Jordan, Perkins, Daugherty,and was it Kenny Smith at point? Ther's a joke back home that only Dean Smith could hold Michael to under 20 a game.
JoKer: good try...but I was sneaky and put in the rule about regular season games not counting. hint: Kentucky basketball is related to one of the connections, but not directly in the loop ... My loop later today or tomorrow.
I was listening to "Florida Room" last night and was thinking that it would be a great song to dance the "shag" to if I could remeber how. (No Austin Powers jokes, that's a dance native to the Carolinas). Who the heck needs techno crap, I mean rehashed 80's Eurodisco?
Here among the cow paddies Country music, I mean rehashed 70s SoCal country rock with a backbeat, is King. Is that "swing thing" revival for real?? I've heard Squirrel Nut Zippers for NC who are pretty eclectic, and Brian Setzer Orch. playing essentially a big band version of Stray Cats bridgin swing and rock. Big Voodoo Daddy (or something like that) sounds pretty interesting, though wasted.

Duke Blue Devils Play Wake Forest Deacons (dunno if it's in the regular season??) and / or Alabama (??) -
-both referenced [somewhat] in "Deacon Blues"{i was gonna try to pull some strange Czech ties from Mike K. to "Third World Man" but I don't think I'm quite the one to do it.....]

CountZed: ...or Mike Krzyzewski is legend sometimes called Coach K. For the latest scrolls from the mountain see www.CoachK.com. No one with the possible exception of Bob (don't call me Bobby) Knight prepares a team better for a game (and he has a bit of a better rapport with his players). Man, his playbook is probably thicker than the Starr report. Coach K does have a tendency to go into a semi-delay game with a lead which has cost 'em a half a dozen games over the past few years and the '86 championship against Louisville. Look for Elton Brand to the "The Man" this year if he avoids another injury. Shane Battier will swallow-up all he finds on the boards. I think there is another Kentucky-Duke battle coming up - this time during the regular season.
Get from Coack K to Steely Dan in the fewest or most degrees of separation (after one of Roy's series of connection, it occurred to me that it may take more talent to find the "scenic route"). Significant sports event/figures are allowed, however 2 teams playing each other during the regular season doesn't count)
Congrats to Eviva and Myra and RS!

oleander: Yes. I am the old MrLP. Long hiatus from the GB. No great story behind it. Haven't had a drink in 14 months. Maybe the two things are related. Unfortunately, still smoking. Have cut my coffee intake down to one cup per day. Little caffeine. Big headache. Nice interpretation of women in cages = women born in men's bodies.
Clas: Still smoking? Why do I bother to ask? Lots of new names in the GB. Have tried to follow, and noticed that you continue to have sternum pains. Cheer up.

Myra and Roy: CONGRATULATIONS! And Roy, it's ok to slobber over a 16 year old who has an ear for Ellington. A drool cup, used sparingly, can really bring a family closer together.
Now, about Myra's day off...
1. Send the woman child on a "Day of Beauty". You know, body wrap, facial, new doo, extreme pampering, etc.
2. Meanwhile, you've rented a stretch for 5 hours and have the driver pick her up from the spa.
3. At a pre-determined stop light, you emerge from the shadows dressed in a tux, clutching a bottle of Dom in one hand and a dozen roses in the other. On your cue the driver exclaims, "Ma'am, is it OK if I pick this guy up? You look lonely back there all by yourself."
4. Enter the limo, gaze deeply in her eyes and whisper, "I don't believe we've met..."
5. Request the Night Canopy and order the driver to "Drive".
Best Wishes,SEMB

Thankyou, Oleander----forgot the guys---well, howdy!! Tupperware, as in Fuller Brush??
I am amazed that only one person emailed me who has the "Summer of '93" boot recorded live at the Saratoga, NY Performing Arts Center. Isn't there anyone else who might want to trade some of my excellent collection of SD boots for this "Summer of '93" set??
Please email me if you have it, and are interested in trading.
Yes, Walter and Donald----indeed, the royalty check is in the mail, but I forgot your address.

Dr. Mu- I would have loved to seen that show, I try to watch it every night, but i would be amazed if anybody has a copy!
Zeke- Thats a great idea, Mardi gras is too crazy anyway, I'm sure somebody will disagree, but the Jazz Fest makes more sense for a danfest! Plus I will probably have the money to go at that time of year, plus I always wanted to see Norlins at Jazz fest time, so sounds good to me anybody second it we'll make it official!

Hello GB, long time no see.
I've lately started a new job and have been unable to post because of the bastard firewall authentication program on my laptop. I could break through that bitch(got a firewall blaster program in the arsenal) but if anyone ever found out I'd be canned in the time it takes a pentium II 450Mhz processor to process 2+2. I've been filling the void of GB withdrawal symptoms by having a torrid romance with a beautiful woman from Amsterdam who happened to be in my newest training class the last couple of weeks. I took her to see Naked Lunch and she was so overexcited by the music of Steely Dan that she... well, anyway, you get the picture. I know, curse me for fishing off the company docks, but this woman is beautiful. God, look at me, I think I might actually be in love or something.... Anyway, enough about my personal life, fuck, I can't believe the things I tell you guys in here.
Geena: I've missed you, hon. How's life treating youse?
Eviva: I had something I was going to tell you, but it's probably a re: from the last archive which I had to read just to catch up.
Rose D: I was thinking about you the other day, remember the first time we spoke we were yelling at each other? That was a long time ago, are we still newbies? If so, I wonder how long until we graduate to "real guestbook signer people?"
Re to the ACC post: Duke Bluedevils are the greatest college basketball dynasty to ever grace this earth, and coach Czywewski(can you help me with the spelling here JosieDF?) is one of the most extraordinary coaches of all time.
Dr Mu: I don't think I can explain it in the same mathematical terminology as you do, but the fact of the matter is that analog formats can record a higher range of information such as background hiss and noise. Cassette tapes which are analog hold much more information than CD's do, but the whole concept of CD's is "digital" and "clarity." The industry has decided to weed out the extranneous noises with this new format(much to the chagrin of analog fanatics like Neil Young). Also, they are limited to the amount of data they can hold as music tends to take up lots of space. The newer, smaller, recordable format which Sony introduced a few years back and didn't release the patent on, thus sacrificing another piece of innovative technology holds even less data than regular compact discs. Sony felt they could sell the players for $400 apiece(walkman size) and for some reason no one bought the idea. I guess I'm rambling, but the fact is, as I was wading through the plethora of mathematical data in your post I didn't fully understand your question and am just bullshitting in order to sound like I know what I'm saying. This is a technique that technicians must all master before taking the job...
Doc K: Don' know about a Nov 7th date, but if it's on the weekend there will more than likely be a show. I spoke to the leader singer of Naked Lunch(Michael Crane) on Fri. at Club Dada--great show by the way--and he didn't have a schedule. He gave me a card with this URL---http://home.earthlink.net/~clburks but it seems that this URL is popping up with the common 404 error. Hey, who said that just because you know how to play music you know how to write webpages? Crane's suggestion to me was to watch the Observer for showdates. Bet on a show that weekend, though, and email me if you're gonna be around:countzir0@hotmail.com.
Speaking of the Fri. nite show, it was pretty packed, and I met a great few Steely Dan fanatics. It was nice to be outdoors watching the band, dancing, and mouthing the words along with people you don't even know, but who you know have experienced the same bliss of the uncanny music of Dan. I met an interesting character from Austria by the name of Don who crowned me "the number one Steely Dan fan in Dallas" and introduced me to the host of a local sports radio show who is also by the way a DanFan. When I told Don that Pretzel Logic and Chain Lightning were songs both possibly about Hitler or Hitler inspired, he was a bit taken aback. It was funny, the show basically felt like a reunion between old friends who've never met. Any of you guys would love it.
Well, hell, I've got to go, see you guys later.
