today i went to a record shop in down town whitter, i went in thinking maybe i would get lucky and find something good and sure enough i found a used dvd of of the police,the title is called "everyone stares, the police inside out" its beyond awesome,,stewart copeland directed it,its basicly about how they got started and shows some of there first concerts and tours,its almost as good as the the police synchronicity concert dvd i got from tower records befor they closed down,well now on to telling you about stelly dan,as i was looking thru the used cds i found the steely dan album aja,i had a copy but it got thrashed,so i bought it for 5 bucks, i think its one of there greatest albums of all time,the song aja is a magical brew of lovely sounds that go so well togther,its a song that i have had on repeat many times as i have slept,its as if it tells a story with out words,but there are words in the beginning and the end of the song but in the middle of it its all instrumental.......

I remember that it was very popular at the time, perhaps one of their best sellers. Personally, though, it is my least favorite Dan album. I think I only have one track from it on my iPod. I really prefer their guitar-heavy, more sardonic stuff - both earlier and later (the two "reunion" CDs that came out within the last 5 years or so). To each his own...
