Music reviews of Everything Must Go

Music Review: Steely Dan? don't think so
Rating: 1 Stars

This is what happens when musicians think they have nothing left to prove. They show up with nothing to sing and play, only they don't know it. With 40 minutes of tedium these songs could more aptly be named dull jazz grooves #1-9 and this isn't even good jazz. Fagen's vocals sound like he's trying to be a back-up singer. Becker's bass sounds like he plays a few bars and then loops the rest of his part.
Somebody should stop these guys using the Steely Dan name. The legacy demands more. Sure, Becker and Fagen claim to have written and arranged all the music during their 70s heyday. Fagen hasn't written a good song since 1982. As the band shrank during the 70s so did the musicmaking. That says a lot about the contributions from the original members of the band. Everything must go? It left a long time ago.

Description of Everything Must Go

2003 release from Becker and Fagen on Reprise, their first since 2000s Two Against Nature.
After trading their infamous two-decade hiatus for an armful of Grammies, Steely Dan breezed through the recording of Two Against Nature's follow-up in a year--near record time in the oft-tortuous Becker/Fagan sessionography. Loosening their notoriously anal retentive studio bent has yielded upbeat immediacy, an almost un-Dan-like brightness to jazzy funk and blues that snap and crackle--even if pop is obviously the farthest thing from their fevered brows. But anyone who confuses the sunny disposition of "Blues Beach" and others here with anything but an ever slyer incarnation of their trademark irony and icy veneer just isn't paying attention. Bookended by "The Last Mall" (a cool, chunky update of "Black Friday"'s apocalypse) and a bluesy, laconic title track that serves up metaphors for bankruptcies both commercial and moral, Walt and Don argue that our once fair society may well be past redemption. Better to simply close out the excess with a good blue-light special. "Godwhacker" serves jazz-head notice on no less than the almighty, whilst Becker makes his belated Steely Dan vocal bow on the slinky "Slang of Ages," daring to be termed "Newmanesque" for rhyming "netherworld" with "Duke of Earl"--if not his lugubrious, lounge-lizard delivery. Abetted by guitarists Hugh McCracken and Jon Herrington, the sax of Walt Weiskopf (and others), and synched to the playful grooves of drummer Keith Carlock, Becker and Fagan bring a deliciously detached elegance to "Green Book" and "Pixeleen"'s sharp musings on digital vidiocy, forging an album that's a cunning, symbolic reminder that the sun will shine brightest just before it explodes. --Jerry McCulley
