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.

Great recommendation, thanks!

I listened to Monkey House and put them on my playlist. I’m not concerned with who they sound like or what they are considered. 

I prefer the Monkey House cover of the Walter Becker written and performed (Steely Dan version as well) song ‘Book of Liars’. But I like all versions… 

Hope you all have an awesome Friday night! My girl’s headed back to town tomorrow and we’re gonna play a little Backgammon and listen to some tunes.  

It’ll be more fun than a barrel of Monkey House.  

Just thought I’d share this song I recently found (although it’s almost 30 years old!!!) by Sonia Dada called “Lester’s Methadone Clinic” cause it’s a pretty cool song that to me has that elusive SD vibe/feel/groove and even some Dan-like lyrics.  Sounds better on Qobuz, but this gives you the idea anyway…

Enjoy!

Nothing like wedding music-  ladies and gentlemen please raise your glass to any major dude .  Stan and Wendy would be ecstatic 

Speaking of Steely Dan vocalists....whatever happened to David Palmer?  He was sacked after Can't Buy A Thrill...
