Donald Fagen and Walter Becker, the masterminds behind Steely Dan, have curated a collection of early tracks that showcase the band's evolution from humble beginnings to Grammy-winning status. From the funky grooves of "Android Warehouse" to the soulful melodies of "This Seat's Taken," each track on this album is a reminder of why Steely Dan is considered one of the greatest bands of all time.

The production on "Origins Of Steely Dan - Old Rein" is slicker than a greased up saxophone, with each instrument shining through like a diamond in the rough. Fagen's smooth vocals and Becker's intricate guitar work are as captivating as ever, proving that their musical chemistry is still as strong as ever.

Overall, "Origins Of Steely Dan - Old Rein" is a delightful trip down memory lane that will leave you tapping your feet and craving more. So grab a glass of scotch, put on your best pair of headphones, and let Steely Dan take you on a ride through the origins of their iconic sound. You won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Donald Fagen and Walter Becker

DONALD FAGEN & WALTER BECKER It's not often that two musical geniuses come together to create something truly legendary, but that's exactly what happened when Donald Fagen and Walter Becker joined forces to form the iconic jazz-rock band, Steely Dan. Hailing from New York City, these two were destined for greatness from the moment they first met at Bard College in the late 1960s. Fagen, with his smooth-as-butter vocals and impeccable keyboard skills, effortlessly complements Becker's wicked guitar licks and darkly humorous lyrical prowess. Together, they crafted an unmistakable sound that blends elements of jazz, pop, and rock like no other. With their slick production, sophisticated melodies, and sardonic wit, Steely Dan became pioneers of the 1970s music scene. Their critically acclaimed albums, such as "Aja" and "Pretzel Logic," showcase Fagen and Becker's unparalleled ability to create intricate, multi-layered compositions that continue to stand the test of time. Their songs, like "Do It Again" and "Reelin' in the Years," are instant classics that never fail to get audiences grooving. Despite their success, Fagen and Becker have always maintained an air of mystery and aloofness, preferring to let their music speak for itself. But make no mistake, behind those cool exterior lies a pair of musical masterminds who have left an indelible mark on the industry. So, if you're looking for music that's equal parts sophisticated and subversive, look no further than Donald Fagen and Walter Becker. With Steely Dan, they've created a timeless body of work that continues to captivate and inspire music lovers around the world.
