Video Description

Steely Dan's album Gaucho is sonic perfection. Every note is perfectly arranged, performed, recorded and mixed. But the success of this album is not due to everything going well, this is a tale of many problems and setbacks. The Expanding Dan Substack has lots of great info about Steely Dan including an interview on The Second Arrangement: https://expandingdan.substack.com/
