From nought to 40 in 11 years

Article Abstract:

Donald Fagen made seven records, verging on jazz, with sophisticated lyrics, for Walter Becker in the 1970s. Steely Dan broke up and Fagen released 'The Nightfly' in 1982, then nothing until 1993. He waited for the different energy needed to write something new. Walter Becker re-united with him as producer and bass player after 10 years of drugs. Steely Dan plan to tour the US in Aug 1993. Fagen is fussy about recorded sound. His voice has a harmonic quality which freaks out the microphone.
