    Awesome deep dive for Dan fans. Showcases some of the roots of the Steely Dan sound we've come to love, even has Fagen ripping some free jazz. Raw, at times Avant-Garde Primitive Dan is what this is.

      In 1979 this mysterious SDTK came to light. I found it in college and essentially freaked out. Released in'71/reissued in'78 & apparently "THE 1ST" recordings released by Fagen & Becker. The movie starred Richard Pryer and was terrible.....BUT this music survived and with it the story of Steely Dan's history was in the liner notes: info we had never seen or heard about!! Eureka!! Bard, drug busts, G.G. Liddy & Chevy Chase! Musically there are 2 songs that kill: If It Rains & Dog Eat Dog. This was quite simply a revelation for Dan Fans. N
