Walter Becker - RIP

[ted_b]

A strange vibe came over me last night and I played Walter's solo album, 11 Tracks of Whack , for the first time in years!  Little did I know that he likely passed away that day!!  I'm telling you, this is another clear indication (to me) that something else is out there...whatever you want to call it.  I've been in a Dan mood all weekend, and today's news just knocked me over!!

 

Walter, you will be sorely missed.  A rough youth turned to a HOF career.  You go Walter.  May you rest in peace!

Of course there is something else out there .... Objectivists trying to attack your thread 

 

Wait and see !

Steely Dan, one of the greatest bands of all times. Very sad news, 67 is too soon. RIP Walter

Sad news.  One of my favorite bands growing up.  RIP Walter.  Thank you for the great music and memories.

Damn! That sucks. 67 too young! SD was one of my favorite groups for many years. I'm still mad at my HS classmates for failing to vote "My Old School" as class song (got "freebird" instead - yuck!).

 

Thanks for the great songs, Walter Becker. Godspeed to you and peace to your family.
