Summary
Low Darts, who have become known for their excellent covers of classic soft rock hits outdo themselves here by taking on this soft rock jazz-infused Steely Dan classic. With spot-on individual instrument performances, some of which land very, very close to the finely-tuned nuance and feel of the legendary studio players that Steely Dan used on their recordings, this cover shines. Drums, bass, guitar, keys, horns all right on plus uncannily precise vocals as well from both Colman Connolly and Sydney Foote. Here are all these great players: Jonas Brown – guitar, Sean Byington – drums, Colman Connolly – lead/backing vocals, clav, horn transcriptions, camera, video, production, engineering/mixing/mastering, Luke Foote – bass, Sydney Foote – vocals, Justin Harris – trombone, Bobby Master – alto/tenor saxophones, Sebastian Rodriguez – e-piano, camera, Kevin Tzanetis – trumpets.
