I have been hooked on SD since 1972, when Can't Buy a Thrill was released and have all of their catalog. Amazingly, I just bought CBAT as a used CD on e-bay, so their first album was the last added to my collection. They were without a doubt one of the most consistent producers of envelope-pushing music, with lyrics that painted sometimes outlandish pictures (like guys jumping off of buildings in Black Friday). I will definitely have to check out Monkey House, but no one will ever replace Steely Dan.
If Steely Dan had a different vocalist
they'd be Monkey House.
I cannot believe I'd not heard of this band until discovering them just today.
If you like Dan (and who doesn't, really!) and haven't heard of MH, check them out.
