Title: Steely Dan Does It Again (Ho Hum)
Product review: The good news is here's another Steely Dan album. The bad news is it's another Steely Dan album. If you're a diehard Dan fan then you'll like whatever they churn out. After so many albums, though, the music is becoming formulaic and predictable. The lyrics are still bizarre as ever, but the rythms and oddball harmonies are just warmed over. There's no excitement on this album, as in My Old School, Bodhisattva, Between the Raindrops, or any number of old Dan and Fagen tunes.
