Right on. My area isn't known for having many options, unfortunately, but when I get the chance to travel with a little cash, I always come back with dusty fingers. ;D

listening to their Greatest Hits double LP I bought today for a buck. Love it. I already have this on vinyl but I couldnt resist buying another one.

Great purchase, even for 20 bucks that record would be well worth it. Huge huge fan of Steely Dan, I have 'Citizen Steely Dan, 1972 - 1980' which is a 4 disc box, and I never get tired listening to those guys chillin' out they way they did, great song writing and production. They still tour but haven't made a new record in 10 years, which I don't get it when a band does that, and implies that it is dried up as a creative force, and just basically becomes it's own 'tribute-band', so I hope they one day go back in the studio.

"Can't Buy A Thrill" featured the vocals of David Palmer with a beautiful song called "Dirty Work".Then Elliot Randall with his smoking guitar work on "Reelin' In The Years".Fagan and Becker met in college in the Boston area.I read that one of their first drummers was Chevy Chase but that could be a rumor who knows...

^^Chevy Chase being one of their drummers rings a bell Glenn...but I can't be certain.

Dirty Work is a good song, people that don't like the later more sophisticated Steely Dan sound I always ask them to check out "Can't Buy A Thrill"...it was one of our favorite party albums back in the day.
