First of all, I\'m 34, so I\'m old enough to know they suck. Reelin\' in the years makes the Eagles look like grand innovators. Never has there been a more uninspired, lowest common denominator-driven musical project in the history of popular music. Weren\'t they studio musicians? Those guys play off of sheet music for a living, and should never write their own music. Their albums sound like a bar cover band won a contest for free studio time. Just the fact that michael mcdonald sang on some of their shit is enough to discount them completely.
In closing, I hate Steely Dan, and when I hear them, I want to smash whatever device happens to be playing them with a large rock.
