Steely Dan s quiet man , Walter Becker s sad departure in 2017 serves to remind us of this musical giant s huge range of talents. Not least of these was his extraordinary ability to compose alongside long-time partner Donald Fagen - some of the most joyous and accessible, yet technically complex, songs to have emerged over the past 50 years. This collection features a range of rare cuts featuring Walter, both as a solo artist and as a member of the mighty Dan, which together form a delightful set of tunes rarely heard in the versions presented here. 1.
