The Steely Dan Shrine

This is  my shrine to the Dan and the Loyal Fandom.  
Right now, I just have a few items exclusive only to this site:

Rare SD/WB lyrics and descriptions
Walter Becker tabs (from 11TOW)

The usual suspects...

Links on the web, Donald

Oh, and I'm sorry to note that some of the rare WB soundbites formerly located here have been removed due to, err, special request. Sorry. But the question on my mind is this: when's follow-up to 11ToW?

Other soundbites
Dog Eat Dog - From the "You Gotta Walk It..." soundtrack. Donald sings. 
Dallas - The neglected if underrated first single. Jim Hodder sings.
Sail the Waterway - The first B-side. Donald sings.


    
I'm not too sure about the lyrics for Our Lawn, Wetside Story or 
Cash Only Island,  but I gave them my best shot.
 If you have any improvements, please drop me a line.





Finally! Tabs/Chords to a bunch of tunes from "11 Tracks of Whack"

Check it out! No new additions in nearly a year! I have no free time! Wah-ha-ha!


Down in the Bottom 

Junkie Girl -  now with solo chords, thanks to a kind fellow.

Book of Liars 

Lucky Henry - needs a little tweaking

Hard Up Case

Cringemaker

My Waterloo 

This Moody Bastard 

Hat Too Flat

That's nice, but where are all the Steely Dan Tabs?

please let me know if you have and questions,
additions, corrections, suggestions or really good jokes.




Now, for your surfing pleasure, links to a handful of helpful Dan sites
(to be expanded soon)

Steely Dan.com - 
Might as well start at the top

Walter Becker's Collected Writhings - 
Your task should you choose to accept it: figure out if he's actually serious.

Tomas Broberg's Dan site - 
A great site. The gig list is essential for you SD tape traders out there.

Scott Borton's Home Page -
Another awesome site. Read his manifesto, it says it all.

St. Al's Links -
A vital resource to the casual (or acasual, if you will) fan.


Say hello to Donald.
(more pics on the way soon)


Coming Soon

A few more soundbites. 
Pics! (alas, maybe not)
