Well…just made a mad dash and spent the last of my cash,…with the top down, I headed across town, to the building with the ticket on the side, and found what I was wishing for…more from Donald and a few more…okay, I know, I’ll never be Donald Fagen but I had to do something special to celebrate the release of “Sunken Condos”, Donald’s new CD….I’m on my second run through it right now and find the themes of the songs at once the same as always but different…of course you have the old guy, young woman theme in “Slinky Thing”, how could he do a cd without a song about that? But there are twists and turns that are unexpected…in “I’m not the same without you” Donald turns the breakup song on it’s head with the breakup turning the protagonist into a superman who “grows an inch taller and has heroic escapades”. I won’t go into all of the songs, there are nine after all, but one last one I want to mention is “Memorabilia”…a song about the aftermath of the nuclear tests and even mentions one of the tests names “Castle Bravo” in it…how the hell does he come up with this stuff? It looks like, to me anyway, that Donald has done again what Donald does…slinky, funky music that has all the biting lyrics that we have come to expect…if you’re a Dan fan…give it a try…it’s already in the mp3 player for the bike ride tomorrow…
