"I was listening to The Royal Scam at work today, completely coincidentally, which is MY pick for the top Dan album. Not that I can really quibble with any of their '70s records (I have to confess I've never made it through Gaucho and the two most recent albums.) I was lucky enough to catch them performing that album in full in Chicago last fall, probably one of the few twenty-somethings in the audience. At one point, Donald Fagen mysteriously left the stage, only to saunter back a few minutes later, melodica in hand. My words cannot convey how beautiful it actually was. That saunter."
