Stepson just got home, but I have spent the last hour or so listening to Steely Dan stuff waiting for him to get back -- what a catalog of songs. For only seven albums, I bet they have 25-30 great songs on there, and it is such a unique sound... there's no confusing a Steely Dan song with some other band. Awesome stuff.

I am surprised o cause of death leaked yet. Usually the TMZ types are on it. He died pretty quickly it seemed like an aggressive cancer.

Kind of like when a prescription drug was named as a possible cause of Glen Frey's death. That story was quickly buried.

Probably not but death and lawsuits is always a money maker for someone.

The lawsuit story above states that Becker died of esophageal cancer.

Funny (imo) internet mockumentary series about 'smooth music' from the late '70's to the early 80's. This one deals with the "feud" between Steely Dan and the Eagles...
