   Agreed.   
      
   Living in Europe, I've been feeding/easing my Live Dan jones this summer by   
   compiling a double set of live recordings 1993-2006 - under the title of   
   Cash Only Island - one volume of soundboard tracks and the other one   
   consisting of tracks from audience recordings, culled from various cd-r's   
   and mp3's I've collected during the past few years. Just to show the other   
   extreme of what a Steely Dan show could be, kind of the negative to Alive in   
   America - here's the track list:   
      
   Vol. 1 (Soundboard)   
   01 The Fez - Irvine 1994   
   02 Godwhacker - Detroit 2003   
   03 Wet Side Story - Manassas 1996   
   04 Haitian Divorce - Detroit 2003   
   05 Black Cow - Manassas 1996   
   06 Hard Up Case - Irvine 1994   
   07 East St. Louis Toodle-oo - The Gorge 1996   
   08 Chain Lightning - Irvine 1994   
   09 My Waterloo - The Gorge 1996   
   10 Cash Only Island - The Gorge 1996   
   11 Down In The Bottom - Irvine 1994   
   12 Countermoon - St. Louis 1993   
   13 Teahouse On The Tracks - St. Louis 1993   
   14 Jack Of Speed #1 - The Gorge 1996   
   15 True Companion - Irvine 1994   
      
   Vol. 2 (Audience)   
   01 Tuzz's Shadow - Tokyo 1994   
   02 Everything Must Go - Tampa  2003   
   03 Girlfriend - Pittsburgh 1993   
   04 Cringemaker - Chicago 1993   
   05 On The Dunes - NYC 1995   
   06 Lunch With Gina - Tampa 2003   
   07 Our Lawn - Chicago 1993   
   08 Gaslighting Abbie - LA 2000   
   09 Blues Beach - The Gorge 2003   
   10 West Of Hollywood - Shoreline 2000   
   11 Ruby Baby - Raleigh 1996   
   12 Sign In Stranger - NYC 1991 (Pat Metheny substituting for Mr. Becker)   
   13 Show Biz Kids - Dallas 2006 (with Mike and that groo-vay boogie vamp)   
      
   Yeah, I know: Nothing but blues and Elvis and somebody else's favorite song,   
   but hey, I'm not asking anyone to buy it. And seeing the set lists for this   
   year's tour, I'm actually content to have this set instead, although nothing   
   can really beat the energy boost of actually being there, so let's hope our   
   mutual friends will de-Vegas themselves somewhat for the next time around,   
   and start kicking again, as we know they can if they want to - cf. the Don's   
   refreshing kinda Soft Boys-ish take on Western World during the springtime   
   tour.   
      
   Btw. Besides these unofficial live recordings I've been listening almost   
   exclusively to the post-2000 part of the Oevre these days, including Morph,   
   and I'm digging that stuff every bit as much as the old records. So, here's   
   to the New Walter Becker Album, and, come to think of it, Carey the Joni   
   Cover, may they both surface soon to enlighten and confuse us further.   
      
   But now I'm rambling.   
      
   Peace,   
   Egil
