Charming is seldom an adjective applied to Steely Dan’s patent brand of sardonic pessimism, but it fits the relatively simplistic, acoustic guitar-driven Any Major Dude Will Tell You, on which a depressed friend is apparently unironically encouraged to see the bright side: it’s a genuinely sweet song.
Perhaps the Steely Dan that seems most apropos in 2022: financial collapse so severe that businessmen kill themselves leads to a desire to escape into the wilderness to “do just what I please”. In a classic Dan twist, there’s an implication that the protagonist isn’t an ordinary escaper from the rat race, but a disaster capitalist.
Stinging slide guitar by Rick Derringer, stinging lyrical assault on the entitled, drugged-out titular characters who “don’t give a fuck about anybody else”: there’s a (relative) looseness and roughness to Show Biz Kids that would be expunged from later Steely Dan albums. You can understand why, but it’s still intriguing to hear.
The lyrics are a perfect example of Steely Dan’s short-story-in-song approach – drug addict discovers the girlfriend who has been helping him has also succumbed to a habit – but the real star of Doctor Wu is Phil Woods’ saxophone: initially smooth, it breaks into frenzied free blowing when the story reaches its denouement.
Steely Dan’s last album for 20 years was plagued by disaster – addiction, car accidents, studio mishaps, the overdose death of their personal manager, who was also Walter Becker’s girlfriend. There was also a lawsuit: Keith Jarrett successfully sued over the title track, which doesn’t make its saga of social embarrassment any less splendid.
Effectively Steely Dan’s take on blues-rock – it shuffles along in time-honoured style, the opening couplets of each verse repeat, but there are some very un-bluesy chords and harmonies – Pretzel Logic’s title track may be about time travel, and features a classic Dan put-down: “You must be joking son / Where did you get those shoes?”
The pick from Steely Dan’s comeback album Two Against Nature, Cousin Dupree is itself a distant relative of Gaucho’s Hey Nineteen: the listener is invited to snigger at a deadbeat sleazeball attempting to pick up a much younger woman. Becker and Donald Fagen later claimed the premise of movie You Me and Dupree was stolen from the song.
There’s something of an online cottage industry in trying to work out what Aja’s oblique lyrics are about: heroin addiction? An obsessive love affair? A passion for bebop? Maybe it’s better to just luxuriate in the music, which sprawls for eight marvellous minutes, assisted by jazz legends Steve Gadd and Wayne Shorter.
Your Gold Teeth from Countdown to Ecstasy is great, but its nominal successor is even better: a jazz-rock hybrid that genuinely swings, complete with some extraordinarily nimble drumming by Jeff Porcaro, deftly navigating the time signature shifts, liquid guitar courtesy of Denny Dias and a chorus stacked with wonderful harmonies.
The biggest hit of Steely Dan’s career – and, one assumes, the only US Top 5 single to feature someone playing the percussive instrument the flapamba – Rikki Don’t Lose That Number steals a riff from Horace Silver and transforms it into fabulously idiosyncratic pop gold: the perfect example of Pretzel Logic’s wilfully concise approach.
