Title: Too bad
Product review: Yes, I too ordered this CD weeks before release in the hopes of hearing a new "destined to be a classic". Instead I was the first kid on the block to be disappointed. This release is a rehash of Fagan's "Kamakiriad" rejects (Granted Kamakiriad took some getting used to). I dare say no song from either that or this release will ever be played on an oldies station of tommorow. This is Two Against Natural musical sensibilitiesMonotonous beats, repetitious lyrics, uninspiring harmonies and lack of riffs have never been part of the Steely Dan appeal. Please fellas, if you can't make the magic don't sell out your name. What happened to compassion and wisdom? To me there is no new Steely Dan album just disappointment. This disc has no place in my collection and is for sale to the first person who thinks the kings have new clothes.
