Yes, I think this is the first time Donald has done a solo tour. I'd love to see him play London this year. Let's hope he comes over to the UK to play. I haven't heard the new album and I don't want to hear it until it's released in March. mp3 tracks always sound too compressed. Curious to hear the 5.1 Surround Sound mix on DVD.

I agree, if "H Gang" is anything to go buy, count me in. I've been on Fagen's website and he's doing a US tour in March. However, there are no dates for Europe. I hope he will bring the show to the UK. I dig Steely Dan, but I can't fly all the way to the US to see one concert.

Donald Fagen is a genius. I cannot wait to hear this album. It's his first solo album since 1993. I heard the single "H Gang" and it's funky delicious. What a sound. Great singer. Thanks for this. Pink
