Steely Dan - Just the Riffs for Piano ReviewThis book is simply "just the riffs" to Steely Dan songs... You will NOT find full length songs in here at all. This book is mainly for those who already know the songs (like from the Steely Dan pop books arranged by Hal Leonard) and want to piece together the rest of the song to make it sound more like the actual recording... I play a lot of Steely Dan covers and obviously the arranged sheet music books they have in stores aren't really that accurate... The riffs that I couldn't sound out from the record or that didn't come with the "other" Dan books of arranged sheet music were in here.
If you happen to have a Hammond B3 organ...and a band... BUY THIS BOOK! Because they have the Do It Again solo written out for you, finally transcribed! And it's dead on accurate. And sounds awsome...
Also, they have the Black Cow instrumental that DIDN'T come with the original Hal Leonard arranged sheet music. It even contains the wickedly cool, impressive piano solo of Sign In Stranger from the Royal Scam album.
And a few songs from Two Against Nature which I thought was cool.
Another point to make would be that for some of these songs, you would HAVE to have a band playing in back of you OR (if you were to play solo somehow) you would have to somehow compensate for the missing bass notes.
For example, the solo for Sign In Stranger may sound really cool and fun to play but when you look at it, a lot of the chords are jazz voicings without the bass or root notes so the solo WILL in fact sound empty if playing it on your own. Same goes with the Black Cow solo, but you can make something up for the left hand because all they give you is the right hand (with the chords)...
I was also verry happy to finally have the Your Gold Teeth II introduction and the tone cluster riffs from I Got The News...
All in all, a very helpful book if you're trying to get exact riffs... or trying to play their songs in general... The reason why my review looks like a J.K. Rowling novel is because I'm so fed up with buying random books on Amazon and having no idea what they're like, I bet many can relate... So I thought I'd take the stand and tell it like it is...
