I'm going to ask you for your 10 favourite songs (in order) by Steely Dan. I thought myself to list this one easily but that wasn't the case. There were too many great songs ! So I sneaked a little as you can see:
1. FM (extended version with long sax solo)
2. Aja
3. The Royal Scam
4. Reelin in the years
5. Deacon Blues
6. Black Friday
7. My old school
8. Your gold teeth (pt.1)
9. Bad sneakers
10. Do it again
10. Gaucho
10. Haitian Divorce
10. Josie
10. The Fez
 And I could go on with many many more. But then I would miss the purpose of the list, so this is it.What's yours ? ------------- A day without prog is a wasted day |
