That's a bummer.
I've never understood the recent tendency to malign Steely Dan.
I was always a big fan.
Especially of the lyrics.
Very literate and challenging lyrics.
If Holden Caulfield had started a rock band it would have been Steely Dan.
The sophisticated tragic hero in a way.

Points for knowing who Holden Caulfied is.

The more of these guys from my generation die the more each one hits me.
On a personal level.
It makes me feel even older.
