Artist: DONALD FAGEN (74 of age)
Who: Half of Steely Dan
Anniversary LP: THE NIGHTFLY
Released: 1 October 1982 – 40 years ago
AllMusic/Jason Ankeny said: “A portrait of the artist as a young man, The Nightfly is a wonderfully evocative reminiscence of Kennedy-era American life; in the liner notes, Donald Fagen describes the songs as representative of the kinds of fantasies he entertained as an adolescent during the late ’50s/early ’60s, and he conveys the tenor of the times with some of his most personal and least obtuse material to date. Continuing in the smooth pop-jazz mode favored on the final Steely Dan records.”
Score: 4.5/5.
