Steely Dan

In this vibrant live performance from the Shoreline Amphitheater on November 30, 1992, Steely Dan was in a fascinating phase of their career. This concert took place during their 'Two Against Nature' tour, reflecting their return after a prolonged hiatus since the late ‘70s. Just prior to this recording, they released their acclaimed album 'Gaucho' in 1980, which showcased their blend of jazz, rock, and complex lyrical themes. However, it wasn't until a full 20 years later that they graced the music scene with new material, culminating in the Grammy-winning 'Two Against Nature' in 2000. This era, particularly the touring period around ‘92, marked a warm reunion with fans and a celebration of their meticulous craftsmanship in songwriting, as demonstrated in hits like 'Hey Nineteen.' You can feel the excitement of the audience, echoing the long-awaited return of their unique sound.
