So sad. I was a late comer to Steely Dan although I knew Dave Weisser was a fan and Paul Edis, way back, selected a Donald Fagin track as one of his all time faves. I decided they must have something and I went along to see Nearly Dan at Sage Gateshead. This was back in 2011 and I was knocked out. If a tribute band is this good, I thought, what's the real thing going to be like?!
I found out and I wasn't disappointed.
What now? I wonder... RIP Walter Becker, I realise you were something special...
I will forever be longing to hear Walters guitar licks. RIP Walter Becker. You are Alright now.
