Title: Only a couple of classics but well-done nonetheless
Product review: This album, the sophomore effort by Steely Dan alum Fagen, is not nearly as enjoyable asThe Nightfly(his first effort) but there are a couple of flashes of brilliance on this album; Snowbound and On The Dunes are truly great songs that strike deep. Springtime, Tomorrow's Girls and Florida Room are most definitely enjoyable. The remaining 3 songs are good listening, especially if you are a danfan, but they lack that special something that I have grown accustomed to hearing when I listen to Fagen, Becker or Steely Dan.Overall, a good album and a must have for any Steely Dan fan; Nightfly would have been hard to beat, so I cannot really take away from Fagen on this album, but rather just state that he set the bar a little too high on his first outing.
