Morph The Cat : Revisited


I recently purchased the Donald Fagan LP Morph the Cat. Man, I believe this is the best sounding rock LP i have ever purchased (at least one of the best). I saw a post a while back in which some posters felt that the LP was a disappointment in that it had no top end to it, and that it was bass heavy. I found that with a small VTA adjustment, the top end sparkles without losing the tight, deep bass. I love every song on this LP. It is much better IMO than the recent Steely Dan LP's. Anyone else have any thoughts on the sound of this LP?

Morph The Cat better than Everything Must Go?

Not in my opinion. Morph is however a great album.
As someone who can recall the lyrics to at least 30 Steely Dan songs, I must admit I've spent thousands of hours enjoying their work since "Can't buy a Thrill" came out when I was in High School.

I hate to be argumentative, but several cuts off "Everything Must Go" are so damn good I fail to see how anyone who ever cared for the Dan could not love them.

"Godwhacker", "Everything Must Go", "Things I Miss The Most" are just killer tunes in my opinion.

Fagan and Becker together are FAR better than either alone, and having seen them live 3 weeks ago I can attest to the fact that they still have the magic.
