This One’s For Real, I Already Bought the Dream

Steely Dan isn’t for everyone. But I dig them and I really like this nerd-a-thon with them taking about the making of Aja.

One of the first albums I got. Present from my sister. Got it in high school, so it took a while to grow on me.

Big Dan fan, too and I loved the doc. It's streaming on Netflix.

2) I've watched a few in that series on Netflix. This one was one of the best because they really go into the nuts and bolts of each song. I dug the one on The Band, too.

Wow. That's very cool. I've never seen this series before. Thank you.

Thanks for that. Been digging (and not quite understanding, I guess) that album for over 30 years now.
