4/18/2024 update: My 2nd remaster attempt of the 1993-09-12 show at the Shoreline Amphitheatre. This is the best video we have of the '93 tour!

4/9/2024 update: My 2nd attempt at this Donald solo show. YouTube bots blocked this specific performance of Viva Viva Rock 'n' Roll, but not others from other concerts, so this concert was completely missing from YT for a while. I removed that song and totally redid the remaster to look and sound better than before.

I didn't expect what I got to even come close to fitting me (even disregarding the baggy mid 90s style), so the fact that it fits as well as it does is actually a pleasant surprise. But the mental image of the Don Johnson thing is making me cackle. 🤣

First and foremost, thank you D! Anyway, how wonderfully cool is this jacket??? A bit on the big side for me (you can't tell until I lift my arms up, but the sleeves are seriously poofy), but I am thrilled to have such a unique piece of memorabilia! (P.S. If it's not clear in the picture, it says "Steely Dan / Europe 1996 / I.T.B.")

3/6/2024 update: I've re-remastered a video! I went back to one of my earliest efforts and saw huge room for improvement. I have gotten better at this over the years, and the tools I use have gotten better too. This new version of the 2000 Detroit show looks great and sounds PHENOMENAL. Here's a neat before/after comparison video. Also, I recently remastered the full band version of I Can't Write Home About You that just found its way onto Steve Khan's website a couple weeks ago.

Heartbreaking...

The Newsletter that was sent out on 2/20 said "Labels are now being wrested from the printer and envelopes are getting stuffed — all soon to be submitted to the not-so-tender mercies of the US Postal Service (or Int’l mail, as the case may be)."

9/30/2023 update: 1993-08-13 Auburn Hills, MI at the Palace The reunion concert! The set list is wild, with lots of Walter stuff that rarely got played live, including Our Lawn, Cringemaker, and Girlfriend!

Anyone else laugh when they showed the before/after on that guy's arm about halfway through the commercial? "Look, this medicine can give your skin a Photoshop gaussian blur filter!"

8/22/2023 update: 2000-06-11 Albuquerque, NM at the Mesa Del Sol Amphitheater An audience recording, but a very good quality one thankfully since this is a pretty interesting concert. The only time they ever played Almost Gothic live, and it was the first ever show at the Mesa Del Sol Amphitheater (now the Isleta Amphitheater).

Since it's impossible to share this on YouTube anymore... just shoot me an email. djbelc01 (AT) gmail (DOT) com

I'd like to second this request!

4/30/2023 update: 1996-07-21 Manassas, VA at the Nissan Pavilion at Stone Ridge - VERSION 2 I've posted this concert before, it was the first one I posted on my channel in fact. However, I've learned a lot and improved my remastering techniques since then, so I've done an entirely new version. Sounds and looks better than ever!

4/20/2023 edit: 1993-08-22 Saratoga Springs, NY at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center This is the earliest soundboard recording I've found from the '93 reunion tour, neat to hear them still finding their sound on the same songs they'd do in later recordings in the coming weeks. (The soundboard recording doesn't have the last few songs of the night, I was able to find alternate sources for most, but this is missing the encore unfortunately)

2/27/2023 update: Donald Fagen 2006-03-03 Westbury, NY I was putting the final touches on this one when I heard about us sadly losing Jeff Young. Take some time to sit down and listen to his wonderful playing during one of the early shows from Donald's 2006 solo tour. Phenomenal sound quality here, and even a couple brief video clips (which are low quality, but better than nothing).

Self-promotion has never been my strongest point... 😄

Ted was my favorite of all the keyboard players that toured with SD. He had incredible touch and a beautiful sense of melody. I love that picture as well, @Moderator: D-Mod. I've made it a point to use it whenever I make a slideshow for one of my remastered concert videos featuring Ted's playing.

My goodness, these alternate versions are incredible. So much fun! I actually particularly love the instrumental version, it's a real shame Walter's vocals aren't on that one because the band sounds incredible there.

2/1/23 update: 2014-07-12 Inglewood, CA at the Forum Recording taken from an assisted listening device... I had to fix some serious reception issues, but now it sounds great outside of some static here and there in the last few songs.

1/13/23 update: I wanted to do a show featuring Ted Baker in his memory since he sadly passed away recently. 2000-07-15 Mansfield, MA at the Tweeter Center Taken from an assisted listening device, this recording has some static at times, but it doesn't ruin the whole show or anything.
