Zusammenfassung: | "Steely Dan was a somewhat unusual band that still inspires unusually strong devotion in its fans. Formed in the late '60s in New York, they released seven albums between 1971 and 1981, two of which were nominated for a Grammy. Part of what's unusual about them is that each of those albums was made by a different group of musicians--founding members Walter Becker and Donald Fagen had no issues swapping players from record to record in order to get the sound they wanted. The band stopped touring in 1974, so the recording studio was the only place they needed their collaborators. Those recordings are legendary, especially among vinyl enthusiasts, for their exquisite production. The precision was necessary, in part, because Steely Dan played with form more than most bands, mixing elements of other genres--especially jazz--with pop and rock. And the lyrics are also distinctive. As the authors put it in their proposal, Steely Dan's songs are "exercises in fictional world-building. Each song features its own cast of rogues and heroes and creeps and schmucks, lovers and dreamers and cold-blooded operators, all tempest-tossed by the ill winds of the '70s." This book consists of sixty-some essays, each devoted to one character, and each essay is accompanied by a painting of the particular character that serves as a jumping-off point for the piece, with additional spot illustrations scattered throughout"-- |

Formed in the late '60s in New York, they released seven albums between 1971 and 1981, two of which were nominated for a Grammy. Part of what's unusual about them is that each of those albums was made by a different group of musicians--founding members Walter Becker and Donald Fagen had no issues swapping players from record to record in order to get the sound they wanted. The band stopped touring in 1974, so the recording studio was the only place they needed their collaborators. Those recordings are legendary, especially among vinyl enthusiasts, for their exquisite production. The precision was necessary, in part, because Steely Dan played with form more than most bands, mixing elements of other genres--especially jazz--with pop and rock. And the lyrics are also distinctive. As the authors put it in their proposal, Steely Dan's songs are "exercises in fictional world-building. Each song features its own cast of rogues and heroes and creeps and schmucks, lovers and dreamers and cold-blooded operators, all tempest-tossed by the ill winds of the '70s." This book consists of sixty-some essays, each devoted to one character, and each essay is accompanied by a painting of the particular character that serves as a jumping-off point for the piece, with additional spot illustrations scattered throughout"-- Steely Dan Musikgruppe (DE-588)5505683-0 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte gnd rswk-swf Rocksong (DE-588)4202293-9 gnd rswk-swf Fiktive Gestalt (DE-588)4306746-3 gnd rswk-swf Steely Dan (Musical group) Characters and characteristics in music Becker, Walter / 1950-2017 / Criticism and interpretation Fagen, Donald / 1948- / Criticism and interpretation Rock music / United States / History and criticism Fictitious characters / Portraits Rock musicians / United States / Biography Becker, Walter / 1950-2017 Fagen, Donald / 1948- Fictitious characters Rock music United States Criticism, interpretation, etc Essays Music criticism and reviews Portraits Biographies Steely Dan Musikgruppe (DE-588)5505683-0 b Rocksong (DE-588)4202293-9 s Fiktive Gestalt (DE-588)4306746-3 s Geschichte z DE-604 LeMay, Joan (DE-588)1309183333 ill Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, PDF 978-1-4773-2746-3 Digitalisierung BSB München - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=034256684&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis |
