Enter a new musical mindframe.
This instructional DVD provides rare insights into the musical thinking of one of the most influential songwriters and arrangers in modern American popular music. Steely Dan's Donald Fagen reveals how traditional twelve-bar blues and R&B structures can be the basis for unique and sophisticated compositions on piano. He and jazz pianist Warren Bernhardt break down the keyboard arrangements to three great Steely Dan hits—"Chain Lightning," "Josie," and "Peg"—as well as the solo works: "On the Dunes" and "Tea House on the Tracks."
