This is what happens when you turn
an opera singer loose on a pop song

PMJ is more of a collective than a band, with a constantly-changing roster of singers and musicians. What is constant is band leader and pianist Scott Bradlee, and the retro style. There is a ton of stuff on YouTube, these are some of my favorites.

Steely Dan, but Paul Shaffer won't shut up!

July 23, 2022

This is the worst interview I have ever seen. Paul Shaffer never shuts up. Poor Donald Fagen can hardly get a word in edgewise. I am surprised Fagen didn't walk out. If he gives a two-word answer, Shaffer will interrupt it. Forget about finishing a sentence, or even starting one! Shaffer continually talks over his guest, and plays over him too. When Fagen finally tells him how much fun it wasn't (19:53), Shaffer doesn't even notice, just keeps blathering on. Incredible - that's narcissism.
