The outstanding podcast Jokermen today lauched a summerlong JokerDan miniseries, featuring Steely Dan’s first seven LPs. To kick things off, host Ian Grant and I discussed Can’t Buy a Thrill. Our talk covered the foundations of the Becker-Fagen partnership, my memories of getting into the Dan (including an ill-fated relationship with a girl named Aja), and our thoughts on every track from the band’s 1972 debut. Listen to a preview of the episode below; subscribe to Jokermen to get the whole shebang.
