always a great choice.
i'll also go ahead and say that their catalog is pretty much killer all the way through.
start anywhere and it will be a great listen.

back in the day (of the last steely dan thread) we had a little Reeelapse outing to the show out here in Studio City. Brian P, neckbeard, Doad, me and my in laaw fam. Saw Gaucho that night, if I'm not mistaken a few others on the board went to on Gaucho night in their towns as well.
Still one of the more inspiring live performances I can remember seeing, and at the Gibson Amphitheater no less, one of the best "big" places to see live music imo.

played the drums along with Fagen's "The Nightfly" the other night. Pretty good times, highly recommended. Things get a little tricky when you get to "GoodBye Look"...

i remember hearing 'any major dude' for the first time......
any song that starts off with "i've never seen you lookin so bad my funky one" was written by gods from another world.
what a great song.
