![]() Given that Fagen lives in New York City and Becker on Kauai, Hawaii, this is, perhaps, not surprising. ![]() When queried about the reason for releasing a solo album at a time when Steely Dan are still standing, Fagen simply offers that he's not as good at taking holidays as Becker is. However, the Dan duo returned to the live stage in 1993, and eventually recorded the Grammy-winning Two Against Nature (2000), their first studio album in two decades, followed by a second, Everything Must Go - the recording of which was the subject of an SOS article in May 2003.Īnd now Fagen is back on the solo path again with a new album, Morph The Cat. Their silence was only punctuated by Donald Fagen's best-selling 1982 album The Nightfly, his rather less successful Kamakiriad (1993), and Walter Becker's 11 Tracks Of Whack (1994). Having wowed the music world during the 1970s with seven studio albums full of their signature hyper-intelligent mixture of rock, soul, jazz, R&B, blues and whatever else took their fancy, Steely Dan went AWOL for more than a decade in 1980.
