Steely Dan - Everything Must Go POLL

To the few of you (Americans, specifically) for whom this will mean anything, New York DJ Jonathan "Great American Songbook" Schwartz evidently only just discovered Steely Dan with this album. When I've been up to Mom & Dad's house on weekends, I've heard him play "Things I Miss the Most" multiple times, sandwiched between the Sondheim and Carly Simon songs. Never any other Steely Dan, just that song.

goin' with "Godwhacker" on this one.

You know, considering this is the last Steely Dan album to be polled, the name of this poll should have been "Poll I Miss The Most"

And that also gives a hint as to where my vote went. :)

Everything Must POLL.

"Things I Miss the Most"

they played "Godwhacker" on Saturday. only song from this album they played. Last year, they did "Godwhacker" plus "Pixeleen". Since those are the only songs I know from this record, I will go with "Godwacker". Looks like I can get a used copy of the CD on amazon for $3.37, think i'm gonna do that...

i think pixeleen!

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

title track, then Pixeleen

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

look, let's face facts - this was the best lyric of the decade:

and if somewhere on the way, we got a few good licks in --
no one's ever gonna know.
'Cause we're going out of business.
Everything must go..

THE TALK THE SEX
THE HOUSE ON THE GOLD COAST
THESE ARE THE THINGS
I MISS
THE MOST

"Things I Miss the Most" is probably their greatest (and saddest) song.

i kinda forgot to check this one out even though i woship the dan

this is hitting me hard right now

Let's admit the bastards beat us
I move to dissolve the corporation
In a pool of margaritas

Oh hey, I was just listening to this a few hours ago and was even musing about how great that line is.

much prefer this alb to the one before it

never really got on board w/ 2 against nature, so I didn't pick this one up. maybe I'll remedy that.

^^ will say this next time it's time to leave work at 5 pm.

I'm reassured ship loves this record btw

Was jamming this in the car today while riding w/the kid, who thinks it's awesome but prefers Two Against Nature by a slight margin. I'm the opposite but it's close. They're both a lot better than I remembered.

Late with this response to the OP, but "Blues Beach" I believe was serviced as a single, or at the very least was sent out to Muzak and their ilk because I heard it in stores and restaurants a lot that summer.

“Shit sandwich beach”

This album >>> Two Against Nature

Any steely related album <1984 > these albums

These two albums are basically dead even in my book, a tier or two below the first seven albums, which are also remarkably close quality to each other

I kinda like the songs but the sterile 90's production makes the records sound tinny and cheap.

West of Hollywood is a classic tho

tinny and cheap

I can relate
