I considered Lust for Life because I knew it wouldn't make it back and to get a bonus Bowie pick, but it was on my 2nd tier this round.

If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

I really like Aja - Peg is a great tune. Steely Dan snobs tell me that Aja is Steely Dan for philistines, but I can't tell the difference between it and the earlier stuff that is supposedly so much better.
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all."

All of Steely Dan's '70s albums are worthy, that's why I haven't pounced yet.
Aja is the zenith of '70s sessionman rock. It is smooth and flawless, but NOT soulless -- Becker and Fagen's sardonic wit is still there. I took the title track in the Desert Island draft -- Steve Gadd's drumming is mindblowing on that one.Originally posted by Kevin SeitzerWe pinch ran for Altuve specifically to screw over Mith's fantasy team.

We were actually featured in the Bahai national newspaper because we had our pics taken in front of their temple, one of only eight in the world. So if you google my name, you get to see them.
