| Steely Dan Fans: What do you think of "The Second Arrangement"? |
|
Edited on Thu Dec-21-06 09:49 PM by Taverner
From Wikipedia:
The first track completed for the album was "The Second Arrangement". It was one that Becker and Fagen were very proud of. But one night, Nichols was horrified to discover that all but a small fraction of the song had been accidentally erased by an assistant engineer. Nichols quickly tried to find Katz, and eventually found him eating dinner at a restaurant. It was Nichols who also broke the bad news to the band. When Fagen was notified, he simply walked out of the studio without saying a word. Attempting to re-record it proved to be too discouraging, so they abandoned the song.
Kinda like their SMiLE or Get Back?
I've heard some of the demos of this and it definitely rocked...

| 1. I'm such a pathetic 'Dan fan that I've never heard any of the demos. |

I know all the legends, however, including that one. :P
