This week we’re discussing every album by the one and only Steely Dan. Led by Donald Fagen and Walter Becker, Steely Dan is known for pioneering yacht rock, as well as being one of the most recognizable dad rock bands on the planet. People love these guys. People also really hate them, too. Let’s just say we have a healthy mix of both on this episode.
Closing track: “Peg” from Aja (1977)
