I've never been a huge Steely Dan fan, but they've been on the radio for as long as I've been listening, and were always worth a listen. Additionally, they're a favorite of some of our SW pirate broadcasting friends. A very original, innovative group. RIP.

They got heavy rotation when I was in HS and college. Technically superb easy listening music for stoners performed by the all-star cast of players Becker and Fagan always managed to gather together.
