Tie:
"Doctor Wu" off of "Katy Lied"
"Almost Gothic" off of "Two Against Nature" |
|
Bodhisattva, followed closely by My Old School, Reelin' in the Years, Dr. Wu, and Peg. |
"Kid Charlemagne" & "Cousine Dupree".
Yeah, I'am as twisted as the rest of you....
-John |
Do it Again - what a unique tune - all kinds of stuff going on. |
"Black Cow"... it takes me back |
Before the fall when they wrote it on the wall
When there wasn't even any Hollywood
They heard the call
And they wrote it on the wall
For you and me we understood
Caves of Altamira..from The Royal Scam |
Deacon Blues...a true classic! |
The surreal quality of Aja always gets me. |
Hey Ninteen and Bad sneakers |
Reelin' In The Years, unless one of about two dozen of their other tunes is playing..... |
Cousin Dupree
I find myself listening to Two Against Nature a great deal |
Has anyone heard the album they made before they were Steely Dan ? I think it was walk the walk if you talk the talk. I'm not sure if that is the exact title of the album but close if not. I found it at a second hand store on 8 track like 20 yrs ago. |
This is it, You Gotta Walk It Like You Talk It. |
"Throw Back The Little Ones."
Is there a more perfect album than Pretzel Logic? I remember buying that album when it was released and thinking it was the perfect pop album. Pop may not be the correct word but the rightness of the sound is amazing. |
Peg, from Aja
Any Major Dude Will Tell You, from Pretzel Logic
Kid Charlemagne, Don't Take Me Alive and The Royl Scam, From The Royal Scam
Do it Again and Reelin' In the Years, from Can't Buy a Thrill
Enjoy,
TIC |
"Only A Fool Would Say That"
or
"Babylon Sisters" |
|
I couldn't believe no one mentioned "Ricky Don't Lose That Number". |
Anything off of the first four albums. (After which, the descent into hell began...) |
Almost Gothic - 2AN
Negative Girl -2AN
Fire in the Hole - Can't Buy a Thrill
There are too many great tunes to choose from.... |
Another vote for "Do It Again". |
Any song off of any album. How's that for decisive?
OK, if I had to pick just one tune, it would be Kid Charlemagne. |
|
Too many good ones to rate like that, just sit back and enjoy the music. Enjoyed the engaging chat with you. Later. |

I agree 100% with all of you. There has never been any band (or duo) that has produced a more consistent or better soundtrack for my entire adult life that wears nearly so well. Standouts: Bad Sneakers, Katy Lied, Any Major Dude, Kid Charlemagne, Charlie Freak, Hey Nineteen, Third World Man... and don't forget the cross-bread solo efforts The Nightfly, Eleven Track of Whack, and Kamakiriad... Don't make me choose. Kill me instead while the earphones are on... |
tie between: chain lightning & dirty work.
honorable mentions: kid charlemagne, black cow & boston rag. |
I keep listening over and over to:
Doctor Wu
Aja
Rikki Don't Lose That Number
IGY (Donald Fagen) |
Don't Take Me Alive. Larry Carlton smokes on that one...
I can't believe I'm the first one to mention this track. |
Cfchew have you heard the Minutemen do Doctor Wu? |
another one for 'do it again'. |
Although I voted for Pretzel Logic (esp the live version w/Michael mcDonald), "Don't take Me Alive" is absolutely awesome.
First heard it when my wife and I took a day off and was walking through a mall. A record store was playing the track - bought it on the spot. One of their best albums and a heavy dose of larry Carlton on the album. |

".....They call Alabama the Crimson Tide....."
I just love Deacon Blues. |
|
Dirty Work and Midnight Cruiser. I saw them last April. They didn't play either. |
"King of the World" (especially the opening bass line) and "Green Earrings". |
I can't get it down to one, or even ten.
Your Gold Teeth II,
Monkey in Your Soul,
and Chain Lightning
are three that I'm hoping will be in the queue whereever forever happens to be. |
Seems to be whichever SD tune I have on. |
"Sing in Stranger", "The Royal Scam" or "Monkey in Your Soul". |
Having a hard time nailing down my favorite LP. One song???? |
Caves of Altamira
"Before the fall, When they wrote it on the wall"
"When there wasn't even any Hollywood"
"Before the the fall, they wrote it on the wall"
"For you and me to be understood" |
"Haitian Divorce" from their masterpiece The Royal Scam. |
I agree with Abucktwoeighty... |
