Ένα κομψοτέχνημα απ’ αυτά που μόνο ο Doanld Fagen (half …plus των Steely Dan) μπορεί να παρασκευάσει, ποτισμένο με τα “αρώματα” μας ψυχροπολεμικής εποχής που δείχνει αίφνης σαν να μην απομακρύνθηκε ποτέ. Από το πρώτο σόλο άλμπουμ του, The Nightfly, που κυκλοφόρησε στα early ’80s. 🔴 🔴 A exquisite gem of the sort that only Donald Fagen — (half …plus of Steely Dan) could create, steeped in the atmosphere of the Cold War era, which suddenly seems like it never truly departed. From The Nightfly his first solo album released in the early ’80s.

Written by Doland Fagen Album Nightfly Produced by Gary Katz

Yes, we’re gonna have a wingding
A summer smoker underground
It’s just a dugout that my dad built
In case the reds decide to push the button down
We’ve got provisions and lots of beer
The key word is survival on the new frontier
Introduce me to that big blonde
She’s got a touch of Tuesday Weld
She’s wearing Ambush and a French twist
She’s got us wild and she can tell
She loves to limbo, that much is clear
She’s got the right dynamic for the new frontier
Well, I can’t wait till I move to the city
Till I finally make up my mind
To learn design and study overseas
Do you have a steady boyfriend
‘Cause honey I’ve been watching you
I hear you’re mad about Brubeck
I like your eyes, I like him too
He’s an artist, a pioneer
We’ve got to have some music on the new frontier
Well, I can’t wait till I move to the city
Till I finally make up my mind
To learn design and study overseas
Let’s pretend that it’s the real thing
And stay together all night long
And when I really get to know you
We’ll open up the doors and climb into the dawn
Confess your passion, your secret fear
Prepare to meet the challenge of the new frontier
