There exist no body of music with the sophistication and precision like Dan Fagen and Walter Brecker; better known as the Pop Rock tandem Steely Dan.

They defy the limits of genre or distinction by category. Listen to Brite Nitegown or Babylon Sister and you're befuddled and amused by the melodic misdirection and harmonious wit achieved by the Eurocentric genius on display.  Unlike the Average White Band or The Doobie Brothers, Steely Dan brings an unapologetic, muscular, and jazz complexity that sets them apart, and re-centers boarders of funk, soul and smooth sounds. Disarming and beguiling, one listen and you hooked. Dudes singlehandedly improved race relations in the industry. Real brothers know this.  All you can do is admire the innovation and grooves they create. I'm so ready to bring Steely Dan to The Motif.

Tune in 2pm to 3pm
