Possible Steely Dan connection here. Walter Becker is said to play on Rebecca Pigeon's new CD "Tough On Crime", but I couldn't confirm it looking at her site. No mention of him, but a picture of one Billy Preston.
The record is produced by Larry Klein who's worked with Joni Mitchell, Bonnie Raitt as well Freddie Hubbard and Carmen McRae. The list goes on and on.
Rebecca herself is an actress and married to writer/director David Mamet.
"Tough On Crime" is her fifth album and has a nice acoustic groove. Hear for yourself over at http://rebeccapidgeon.com

Update July 4: Did look a bit closer at Rebecca's bio, and sure enough Walter is mentioned as one of the musicians on the album!
Hi Martha!
ReplyDeleteI am sure we could give it a try regarding the Swedish studies, but it's supposed to be one of the harder languages to learn so...
Was it Swedish ancestry that made you want to give it a try or maybe just a general interest in this small Scandinavian country way up north?
We do hope you get to see Steely Dan out on tour in the States this summer. Wish the band would come back to Europe to play again, but so far no such luck.
Thanks for the kind words and enjoy life i Savannah, Georgia (or wherever you might be living).
