Editoral Review His solo career leveraged strengths of his writing, producing and performing partnership with Walter Becker in Dan, and explored new territory along a more personal singer-songwriter trajectory. ALBUM OVERVIEW: As half of seminal pop/jazz/rock outfit Steely Dan, Donald Fagen is one of contemporary music’s most inventive masterminds. With his 1982 solo debut The Nightfly, Fagen won massive critical acclaim for a fluid, soulful work he described as representing "certain fantasies that might have been entertained by a young man growing up in the remote suburbs of a northeastern city during the late fifties and early sixties, i. e. , one of my general height, weight and build. " Reviewing it for Rolling Stone, David Fricke wrote, "this album is about dreams . . . Fagen conjures a world where all things are possible, even to a kid locked in his bedroom. " 1993’s Kamakiriad continues Fagen’s sonic journey by following the adventures of a mythic lead character touring the world in a fant! astic car. With 2006’s GRAMMY®-winning MorphThe Cat, Fagen delivers a masterpiece rivaling Nightfly’s potency that Rolling Stone called his "catchiest, most immediate compositions in decades. " Together, these works spotlight the ongoing genius of a true music visionary — on Rhino’s stunning new MVI editions, they’re a sensory revelation.
