Donald Fagen,
Sunken Condos
(Reprise). A new solo album from the co-founder of Steely Dan,
Sunken Condos is very much in the now-familiar vein of
Morph the Cat
, its immediate predecessor. That is, however, a compliment, not a knock. Sly lyrics, subtle harmonies, richly textured rock/jazz/R&B instrumental tracks, virtuoso playing from all parties concerned--what more could you possibly want? This is rock for grownups, wholly adult in its musical language and emotional concerns (TT).
