This week's musical treat is another blast from the past: Steely Dan recorded live at the Rainbow Theatre in London, UK on May 20, 1974. It a very high-quality soundboard recording of the classic band at their performing peak. Although the embed below is from YouTube, there's no video. This is probably the best recording of early Steely Dan that I've heard. Enjoy!
