| Celebratory cover version by Jim "Hoops" McKay |
I bought the new one and after work I sat down in my sofa with headphones on and listened to the whole album once, twice. three times...
It was amazing to finally be able to listen to the record that had been rumoured for a long time and then announced for real. Twenty years after Gaucho.
I was a happy man that day. And will l give Two Against Nature a spin today on its 20 anniversary.
It ended up being a comeback as well as the band's next to last album. 2003 saw the release of Everything Must Go. And that was it. While the short time of three years between Two Against Nature and Everything Must Go had me hoping for more Steely Dan albums they never appeared.
The band concentrated on touring and Donald Fagen and Walter Becker recorded solo albums.
I was reminded of the day and date by a post in the Dandom.com Facebook group. So on I go ... listening to Gaslighting Abbie and the rest:
| 1. | "Gaslighting Abbie" | |
| 2. | "What a Shame About Me" | |
| 3. | "Two Against Nature" | |
| 4. | "Janie Runaway" | |
| 5. | "Almost Gothic" | |
| 6. | "Jack of Speed" | |
| 7. | "Cousin Dupree" | |
| 8. | "Negative Girl" | |
| 9. | "West of Hollywood" |
