1) We've got quite a few covers of Steely Dan songs. But it's ususally the familiar ones that get covered. But that's not what happens when Brazilian singer Luciana Souza's album The New Bossa Nova is released August 21.It features Where You Blind That Day. That's the alternative lyrics version of Third World Man from Steely Dan's Gaucho album.
Luciana's version the first official release of that song with those lyrics.
Where You Blind That Day has previously circulated in a set of demos for the Gaucho album.
You can hear 30 seconds of Luciana's version here.
Another song on the album; Love Is For Strangers, is written by the producer of the album; Larry Klein together with Walter Becker.
SPOILER! SETLIST! SPOILER! SETLIST! SPOILER!
