Paperback. One of the biggest names in the musical landscape of the 1970s, Steely Dan released a string of albums that pushed the boundaries of what was possible in a recording studio. With albums like 'The Royal Scam' and 'Aja', the songs of Walter Becker and Donald Fagen drew from their love of jazz, their ability to write memorable pop hooks and their penchant for subversive humour to produce a catalogue of unparalleled brilliance. With worldwide album sales in excess of 40 million copies, the durability of their songs has made Becker and Fagen one of the most celebrated writing partnerships in popular music. This book gives an overview of Steely Dan's career while investigating every track recorded across the nine Steely Dan studio albums, plus Becker and Fagen's six solo albums. There is also a discussion of the official live albums and joint collaborations, the duo's early, largely unreleased, recordings and other tracks recorded under the Steely Dan name, making this a comprehensive guide for both fans of the band's work or newcomers to the fascinating world of Steely Dan.

A biography of the group Steely Dan, the American jazz rock band who have sold over 50 million albums during a career lasting over 20 years. It tells of how Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, a couple of cynical New York jazz fans wormed their way into a record contract and astonished critics with their first album "Can't Buy a Thrill" in 1973. Nine albums later, after "Aja", had topped charts everywhere, they were among the biggest selling acts in the world. Then they quit, only to reform in 1993. Steely Dan were different from the rest of rock's super-sellers. They rarely gave interviews. After some early bad experiences on the road, they refused to tour. They didn't have their photographs taken so few people knew what they looked like. Steely Dan wasn't even a proper group; it was two musicoans and a producer, yet every top notch player in the world lined up to appear on their albums. In this book the author, who is the editor and publisher of "Metal Leg", the UK based Steely Dan fanzine, finally draws back the veil of secrecy that has surrounded Walter Becker and Donald Fagen. Here is the story of how they made their music and lived their lives.

S'appuyant sur une longue expérience de chercheur et d'enseignant, Becker propose dans ce livre des façons de penser la réalité sociale pour la saisir et l'étudier. Loin d'enfermer le lecteur dans un moule, Becker montre à travers des cas précis comment réfléchir aux diverses étapes de la recherche en évaluant les conséquences des choix que nous faisons. Quelle représentation d'un phénomène social avons nous empruntée ? Comment concilier l'étude d'un cas particulier et la nécessité de généraliser ? Où trouver nos concepts pour organiser nos données ? Quelles ressources la logique nous fournit-elle pour mesurer les implications de nos découvertes? À ces problèmes, Becker propose des solutions pratiques exprimées en un style simple et vivant. Pour cela, il s'appuie sur différentes disciplines (anthropologie, histoire, ethnomusicologie, sociologie, études urbaines, photographie, littérature, etc.) et sur une multitude d'exemples de la vie sociale (l'usage des opiacés, la délinquance des cols blancs, le choix des acteurs pour monter une pièce, les collections d'art, la grève d'ouvriers anglais, la perception des malades par des étudiants en médecine, le décor de la maison de paysans blancs du sud des États- Unis, les présupposés du racisme...). Un livre utile aussi bien pour conduire une recherche que pour mieux lire les ouvrages de sciences sociales.
