June 24, 2025 · 37 min
Baxie talks with Steely Dan biographer Brian Sweet. His book “Steely Dan: Reeling in the Years” is about to be released on paperback this August. The book is the definitive story about how Donald Fagan and Walter Becker became two of the most unlikely Rock Stars in history. Brian follows the story that took them from being reclusive song writers at Bard College, to reluctantly performing on stage, to refusing to play live so that they could focus all of their attention on writing and producing some of the most flawless albums ever recorded. Such an amazing story! Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and on the Rock102 app! Brought to you by Metro Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Chicopee!
