Steely Dan - Everything Must Go (2003)

 

The ninth album from this band from USA.

The band was a duo of Donald Fagen and Walter Becker with a lineup of bass, guitars, piano, keyboards and vocals.

They got help from numerous guests who provided drums, percussion, vibraphone, vibes, bass, guitars, piano, keyboards, woodwinds and backing vocals.

The band returned again for their final album after a three years long break.

This album clocks in at forty-three minutes.

The music is again quirky art-rock with some strong jazz, funk and soul influences.

There is a lot of woodwinds in their music in addition to the vocals, bass and half-acoustic guitars.

There are a couple of good songs, notably the title track, and some decent songs here. The life seems to have left the band by now and this album is their weakest ever album. It is still a pretty good album though.
