Hugh McCracken on guitar!
Have to say i really enjoyed playing this one. Chord progression on verse i basically D G A. What Hugh did here is far more interesting than just strumming the old D, G, A through verses.
Steely Dan’s Walter Becker was full of praise: “Hughie McCracken was great on that, absolutely outstanding. Doing what only Hughie McCracken does.” For a band so meticulous about the parts they asked their studio musicians to play, it was rare to give a musician that level of freedom: “The thing was the Hughie’s part was just so great, that it took care of a lot of business. You didn’t have to do a lot of other things that you might have done that would obscure it. It just sounded so great that you wanted that to be there. It functioned as a kind of lead and rhythm part at the same time. When you record something that sounds so great you want to feature it and not lose it.”
Have fun!
