Happy 76th birthday to the creative treasure Donald Fagen of Steely Dan (born on 1/10/48). Fagen cofounded Steely Dan with the late Walter Becker in 1972 and together their pristine jazz-rock compositions are that of legend and unrivaled. Fagen sang lead on almost every song, with his distinct nasally smooth vocals with of course a cynical face. The Steely Dan journey continues as they are currently opening for The Eagles- perhaps there’s one more glorious solo album for Fagen soon? In the meantime watch Steely Dan live in Nashville in 1993 during their first comeback tour.
