If you are a fan (like me) or are familiar with Donald Fagen's work, either
solo or with Steely Dan, you will like the album. I think many people lump
Donald Fagen's stuff as contemporary "adult" pop but edjamacated people know
better that he straggles the lines between pop and jazz to beat a path all his
own.

My impressions of this album are that I was not immediately grabbed by it when
I first got it (except a couple of songs like "Snow Bound" and "Tea On the
Tracks" (??)) so it took me a little while to get used to. It's a fairly solid
album, though, but without the muscle of previous material (eg I like "The
Nightfly" better).

Does anyone know or heard of "Kamiakiriad" by Donal Fagan? If so can you
tell me what it's like. Also, does anyone have or know where I can get a
list of Jamiroquai's UK tour dates in November this year or next (not
sure). Help will be greatly apprieciated!
