OT: Oh no, not Walter Becker...
I don't do RIP's because there is no other way to do your final resting.
In the confidence that there are one or two Notts fans who share my love of Steely Dan,
it's with sadness that I note Walter's passing at a mere 67 years.
The only positive is that Donald Fagen intends to continue and may even reform Steely,
although Becker was the creative spark behind so much.
'Pretzel Logic' - one of the best debut albums ever.
Steely took me into the realms of jazz/rock fusion. Love playing this stuff on my ipod while
walking the dog. Great lyrics too. Try 'Cousin Dupree' on TWO AGAINST NATURE for a saucy
lyric about an unhealthy family.
Bye, Walter, you will be mist (sic)
