{"product_id":"steely-dan-two-against-nature-2lp-clear","title":"Steely Dan - Two Against Nature [2LP Clear]","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwo Against Nature marked Steely Dan's return after two decades away from the studio, a comeback as sly and immaculate as anything they made, pressed here on clear 2LP vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReleased in 2000, it was Walter Becker and Donald Fagen's first studio album since Gaucho in 1980. Plenty of reunions trade on nostalgia, but this one sounded unmistakably current, with the duo's jazz-schooled harmonies and caustic wit fully intact. The industry agreed, handing it the Grammy for Album of the Year among other awards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCousin Dupree is the wicked centerpiece, a funky, deadpan tale of a lecherous houseguest that only Steely Dan could make sound this charming. Janie Runaway glides on a breezy groove that hides a darker story, What a Shame About Me finds a down-on-his-luck writer bumping into an old flame in New York, and Gaslighting Abbie opens the record with a sinuous rhythm and a scheming plot to match.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe musicianship is precise without ever feeling sterile, layered with crisp horns, supple bass, tasteful guitar and Fagen's dry, knowing vocals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor fans who wore out Aja and Gaucho, this is proof that the partnership still had plenty to say, and the clear vinyl makes a fittingly handsome home for it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67761822007586,"sku":"603497808328","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/2080\/8994\/files\/Steely_Dan-Two_Against_Nature_2LP_Clear.jpg?v=1794309723","url":"https:\/\/soulfulvinyl.com\/products\/steely-dan-two-against-nature-2lp-clear","provider":"Soulful Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
