Probably my favourite band. Aja is a ridiculously good album, but to be fair they all are. Still churning out quality albums to this day, 2 against nature with Chris potter on tenor is unbelievably good

Of course. Just had you down as a bit less middle of the road, thats all.

*awaits banhammer!*

lol

I like a whole range mate. I was going to the Philharmonic when I was 7 to hear classical, and have been to see Metallica, yet would give my right nut to see George Benson and Jamiroquai (separately).

I play difficult jazz on guitar.

Steely Dan never did it for me though.

oh I'm well and truly in the minority on that one

A good 4 or 5 songs but people do overstate their case a bit.

Cant beat that tbh. My Nan was their pianist, like about 60 years ago. Maybe more actually.

Variety is spice of life. One weekend, years ago, saw Stray Cats friday, Motorhead Saturday, Don Mclean Sunday.

Fagans solo stuff is well worth checking out too. Morph the cat, and sunken condos are both amazing, along with the classic The nightly. Sublime.

Groucho and I share a love of Stevie Ray Vaughn, so nothing else matters.

My favourite band, without question. Favourite album, probably the Royal Scam.
Fagan's solo stuff is superb, Nightfly and Kamakiriad are albums I listen to constantly.

yeah, Kamakiriad's ok but it's too electronic for me, theres even a keyboard sax solo ffs *pukes*

Sunken condos is rocking my stereo right now

Look up the work Becker did as a producer, he reinvents bands and their direction, certai ly did it to China Crisis.

Peg is one of my favourite tracks, even when de la soul sampled it in eye know it stands out.

Very overlooked band, Pretzel Logic is where newcomers should look first
