Steely Dan - Reelin' In The Years (Best Of...)

In the Seventies, I didn't really get on with Steely Dan. They were so painfully cool, and I didn't like cool. Listening to this again, I was spot on. I can appreciate the brilliance of the musicianship now, and the amazing way in which the songs are crafted, but still the coolness - which sometimes, to me, borders on dissociated - turns me off. Except "Reelin' In The Years" which now, as then I love.
