Still fantastic! Submitted on: 2009-11-15 |

| I just saw Steely Dan in concert and they are as good as ever! Donald Fagan and Walter Becker are true masters. All of my CD's were stolen from my car so I am slowing replacing my collection of Steely Dan recordings. Kamakiriad is a true listening pleasure. |

I am very pleased with the CD that I received. It is brand new and I am so glad that I could purchase and older CD
that is not as well known as some others.
I will continue to order from Amazon.com definitely!! I have order DVD's in the past and have been very happy with
the product and the way it is shipped.
I ordered a Robin Williams DVD yesterday and am looking forward to watching it soon.
Amazaon.com is the greatest! Thank you so much and will be ordering again soon.

Donald Fagen, and Steely Dan, are our gift creature from the black lagoon. Just when you think comfortable retirement has commenced and you have gone in 1000s of other musical directions, there is a Dan sighting: a new album is imminenet. Out come Katie Lied, Aja, Nightfly. Get those sounds back in your head. Lagoon Steely is coming to town.
If Nightfly is Fagen's ode to 50s jazz, film score and songbook that nourished his musical mussles, and Morph The Cat is a modern album with those influences in subtext, Kinderkimaid razor blades the hair.
This came out in 1993, by which modern production had taken firm root. You don't get the warm retro-feel of Nightfly. Musically, Kinderkimaid is also more advaned: lots of unexpected chord subtitutions and six minute songs that steer into many parts: little jazz essays. Distant from Nightfly's tight retro-pop asthetic. Listen to the first track, or 'Tommorrow's Girls." Listen a few times. It takes awhile, but get Fagen's drift, and you'll be lost joyfully in his winding musical caves.
Look at the cover and contrast to Nightfly: Nightfly's cover conjurs images of dad's Nash, tube radios, Murry the K, an engeneer smoking Luckies on WABC all night long. Beat the reds to the moon, and anything's possible.
Kinderkimaid makes you think George Jetson. Fagen's face on a car TV. All kinds of new-fangled gauges and gagets. Inside, a new digital jazz you can dig crusing the stratosphere. A future we projected long ago.
Thinking this way, you could see Nightfly, Kinderkirmad and Morph The Cat as a triology: past, future, and a post 9/11 present that is not the 2009 we imagined, all those years ago.
Just a crazy theroy: either way, get all three. Listen to them--a lot. |

A good album, with relaxing yet interesting songs Submitted on: 2009-03-24 |

Donald Fagen delivers once again with his second album, Kamakiriad. I liked most of the songs, but Tomorrow's Girls would definitely be my favorite (dangerously catchy! >.<). A must-have for Fagen or Steely Dan fans.
