Moesound Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Fantastic! Thanks for sharing, Al. Great little documentary. I got this album for Christmas (along with my first stereo!), sophomore year in high school. Fond memories. Moe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Westgate Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 Always good to hear them! I have the two DVD's about their work that are fascinating. Also a book "Reelin' in the Years" tells more about them and also recounts the loss of one album recorded with an early noise reduction system that would not track properly on replay! Did see them live once here in NZ mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Feeley Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 I got AJA as a gift when I was a kid. You all might find this nine-minute YouTube video interesting. The YTer, Rick Beato, gets a little excited in a couple spots, but he does make his point rather convincingly: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al mcguire Posted November 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 That guy Rick really talks a lot, I think Dr Steve Gadd is worthy of an entire solo post of his work. BTW no one is talking about how many songs Wendel the drum machine played on, http://rogernichols.com/wendel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played for Steely Dan. Wendel could not "humanize" they always went back to real drummers. This is not an insult to Roger, he was one of the greats I had a chance to meet. He has told me so many Steely Dan session and road stories, I could write a book, but leaving it to him!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
