Steely Dan/Funny

"Our man Abu squeezes off twenty tracer rounds And that's when she jumps the turnstile And as she clings to the roof of a speeding train The Double A down to Sheridan Square Her cell phone rings It's, like, her stupid father be in the door by ten again"
 * The liner note essay for the 1998-2000 CD remasters. You have to buy 8 CDs to read the whole thing (each CD is accompanied by the part of the essay about that album), but boy is it worth it.
 * A highlight is the Aja section of the essay, which contains an angry conference call between Becker, Fagen, the music writer who wrote the original liner notes, and a hapless real estate agent who accidentally found his way into the conversation.
 * Quite a bit of their songs' lyrics. Examples will eventually be listed.
 * Pixeleen


 * Their website contains many pieces from Becker and/or Fagen that are as funny as many of their songs. Those Rock and Roll Hall of Fame pleas from the 1990's mentioned on the main entry are a good example.
