It really irks me that FT seems to have placed himself into the Obner consciousness as the premier authority on Steely Dan present on the boards when infact it's me.

I even think Walter Becker has a good singing voice. That's how much of a fan I am!

Intriguing. I'd probably sub out Pixies for Swervedriver or Wilco. Something German for DJ Shadow...I mean, German music ain't the greatest. But yep, the other 3 for sure.

Pretty close - and certainly no argument from me about it. I'd just say Frank Black and Ike Reilly are represented already by the Dolls, Dylan, and Stones.

Ya pretty much nailed the first tier Rads. Each artist has about 1-2 GB's worth on my ipod. Crazy.
