Title: RIP Walter Becker
Post by: smokeasaurus on September 03, 2017, 03:07:25 PM

Becker/Fagen........Steely Dan co-founders.  Steely Dan changed my life when I first heard Aja back in 1978. Aja and George Bensons "Breezin" showed this good old boy that Jazz was and is cool.

A sad day for anyone in the world that loves music.................

Walter Becker was a perfectionist. He always knew the sound that he was looking for and he most always attained it. Steely Dan was one of the top supergroups of all time. RIP Walter.

I've got a bunch of their stuff on the MP3 drive in my bike.

It seems like every time I turn around, another one is gone . . .
