"Donald Fagen's best album since, the nightfly. It's typical Fagen combing rock, funk and jazz and he delivers his finest set of songs for over thirty years. Weather in my head, memorabilia, and, slinky thing, are all classic Fagen. A well underrated album."  Reply

"This is a divisive album as Benson transitioned from "real" jazz to smooth/popular contemporary jazz. Purists decry it while casual jazz fans laud it. Even as a hard core jazz fan, I think it's excellent. One just need set aside preconceptions and listen to it for what it is, which is certainly b..."  [+]  Reply
