I’ve listened to Steely Dan for the past 40+ years, caught em live several times over the years. While “the soundtrack of my life” may be a threadbare phrase, Don and Walt’s music has been in the foreground and background of my adult life. And I’ve appreciated them as perhaps only a (much lesser, of course) musician can. Aja WAS my favorite album of all time. Now, I am prepared to proffer the blasphemous position that any of MH’s latest 3 offerings surpass anything SD has ever done. There, I said it! I have a new fav MH song every week it seems, and just don’t get tired of those amazingly- layered tunes- pleasantly surprised by hearing something new often. When Spotify makes a suggestion after my MH selection, I always hope something new and great in the genre will surface. But never does. Don, you and your (sounds like) cast of thousands are truly incomparable to anything out there-past or present. Your music has changed my life. Now, I’m just waiting for Saturday to arrive. Soon, please Don.

I can't believe Monkey House is still unknown in some areas!
One of the tastiest albums i have heard in recent times. All the best to you guys.
Friday is your best yet. Having said that, I can't wait to see what 2021 brings us.
Totally enfactuated with Friday. I'm bathing in Steely Dan with Don's own input. Fantastically amazing!
Such incredibly sweet music from these guys (and Lucy!). Great stuff!
Great album, great band... the music has a great rocky-jazz feel. Be sure to check out their other albums. Keep it up guys!
The tribute to Walter Becker is perfect. I remember discovering the song on the Steely Dan album Alive In America!
This band cooks.
Check them out.
Rediculously good.
Love this band
