The songs of Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, aka Steely Dan, stood alone in 1970s rock: cryptic, pungent lyrics and sophisticated, detailed music deeply influenced by, in Becker and Fagen’s own words, "the best jazz players of the ‘50s and ‘60s".
Steely Jazz re-examines the Dan canon, illuminating the singular melodies, rich harmonies and exploring the small jazz group possibilities of an incomparably opulent songbook. Featuring well known pieces alongside classic tracks and deep cuts from the masterpiece albums it is a fresh, exciting celebration of two giants of 20th Century popular music.
The Chris Ingham Quintet’s CD Walter, Donald is released September 2025.
