Just clocked the Perri sisters take on "Caves of Altimira". Bizarre but true. Not unpalateable.Any other Dan covers of note?

I hate Steely Dan.

However, my girl loves them, so by dint, I am mildly interested in the answer to this question.

but because my digs this

How can you improve perfection?

there is a new album called "the royal dan"--all instrumental covers of classic dan tracks done by like larry carlton, al dimeola, mike stern, and company. its a little elevatorish...i'd avoid it actually. if you go on soulseek you can get the demos and outtakes for "katy lied" and "gaucho". super wicked to hear how those songs evolved and there are a number of unreleased gems too.

the only bonafide cover i ever heard was of Dr. Wu by like guided by voices or something and it was just awful.

i am listening to "your gold teeth II" like 6 times a day; that song can;t be fucked with.

I have posted about this before, but just to make sure this
obscure corner of the web gets some shine until everyone knows
the talent of the one Jimbo Jones.

Mobile, Alabama bar band pros from the 70s.
