This is light jazz funk rock with brilliant musicianship, and Fagen’s voice is still lovely after all these years. I could not remember a single tune while the songs were actually playing, let alone when they finished. If any of these songs had been any good at all, this would have been the best record ever. The same applies to his 1993 and 2006 albums, in case you were wondering. Play The Nightfly again. Or just “New Frontier”.
