Cant bbuy a thrill and Aja are two amazing albums. I am surprised that SD doesnt dig the song Black Cow which has a great jam on it.
And speakig of Steely Dan, I got an email from a friend of mine in her twenties that evoked the tune Hey Nineteen. SHe was bored by our convo of "70s music" like thisi isnt amazing classic timeless stuff, unlike say, Shania Twain. Does this generation not get the great music? Talk about a generation gap. And I think I could appreciate good music that came out now (not the rap genre with exceptions- love tribe called quest) if it came out at all which it doesnt. Just a bunch of shit. So these kids dont know hendrix and joplin and tull and allmans and the dead and (70s) david bowie and zep but love thee eyes blind or matchbox fifty or whatever .
