What beer are you drinking now? #4465

Oh crap that is so true ha. I know there are Steely Dan fans here, which is of course fine, but I have never really been one. Though am told all the time when people find out I like jazz, "have you heard of this band called Steely Dan, they are like jazz." Ugh.

 

Beautiful little pup!!!

 

eh, no hate from me, I just never got addicted to SD... but I appreciate their musicianship.
Cheers, all!

 

You'll get those soon enough unless you're a damn reptile

 

Hoppy Friday Advocates. My first Alpha Ambush of this year’s release. Nice bitter pine flavor. Cheers.

 

Mr. Snowman then conjured up a Schilling Isartor Helles.

 

It has more to do with people never ever hearing anything remotely like jazz, but then saying SD is so like jazz ha. I get they have had good players come and go from the band. I mean both Jim Gordon and Steve Gadd have played with them, and are two of my favorite drummers...and I can go on forever but I'll stop there, and just say the band as a whole never did much for me, ha.

 

Happy Friday, BA!

Having a Tree House Very Green. What a treat!



cheers!

 

Happy Birthday, Sir! Hope you had a great day and that the fish & chips didn't suck. Cheers!

 

You have a legit beef. Our Peach State BAs unless Living 4K+ feet or higher, not so much

 

Steely Dan was not a band - it was Donald Fagen and Walter Becker and they brought in other excellent musicians to play on their songs. And to deny their jazz influences is kind of ludicrous, that's all I'll say on the matter.

 

Yeah that's a stretch but others in rock n roll made it easy to expand into the "Smooth" Jazz genre with bands like Acoustic Alchemy, Special EFX, Dancing Fantasy and the Jazzmasters Paul Hardcastle. Many individual artists from Alex Bunyon to Wayman Tisdale.
Steely Dan is from the '70's when one mentioned Jazz I would think at the time New Orleans style jazz?
Am an SD fanboy though.

 

Oh yeah, I get it... that was my route to SD as well. And I'll throw in an SD tune once in a while here in the forum... as some know. Cheers, Hunter! What you got for a beer next? I've got mine lined up... be about 10 minutes.
This Vallejo variant, Sunrise, is fun. Melon, blueberry, pine, dank, all playin' and clownin' around.

 

seems like he was engineered for optimal cup holding as well, very smart
