After listening to this cd for 3 weeks straight now I have to say that this is one of the best steeley dan cd ever!  The lyrics are fantastic, and the music is wonderful.  After listening for awhile you can really get into  both the lyrics and the nuances in the music.  Hip, with the times as far  as the words, and jazz at it's best as far as the music.  I have ALL  Steeley Dans' music, and I highly recommend this to everyone. It takes a  few listens to really appreciate all this cd has to offer, but it will be  worth it!
