Music critic Steven Hyden (author of the best-selling Twilight of the Gods ) joins the podcast for a discussion about Steely Dan's ever-shifting legacy and their place in music history. He explains how their tenure as a studio-only ensemble anticipated how contemporary records are made, and how the reputation of the albums made during that era (such as Gaucho ) has evolved as a result.
