Steely Dan - Gaucho Outtakes (original)

This is a bootleg recording from the Gaucho sessions.

It includes "The Second Arrangement" which was accidentally erased, when an assistant engineer should prepare the tape for listening.

For unknown reasons he thought he was at the tail header instead of the beginning when he put all 24 channels on "record". When he discovered his mistake, three quarters of the tune was allready erased. Finally replaced by "Third World Man" on the "Gaucho" album.

Incredible find...where in the HELL did you get this?!!!

God, I love these guys...I never get tired of listening to these songs...

I wonder if Don and Walter know this "boot" exists...and the story behind it!!

It's really hard to believe that Gaucho's drum track by Jeff was comprised of 40 or 60 edits(forget which)...if that performance was a full take it sounded flawless to me. Goes to show you how insane these guys are/were...

Listening to Babylon without drums made me want to jump behind the drums and GROOVE! Kinda hard to do at work, though...

Thanks!

Thanks Klemme ..ill def be checking these out!

wow - Cheers Klemme, I can't wait to check these out. You could make a fortune selling these gems on ebay!!

The Gaucho demo with acoustic piano is incredibly beautiful. I actually like it better than the produced version, tape imperfections and all. I think the mark of a great song is when it sounds complete with only a piano/guitar and vocal.

Thanks for sharing these Klemme!

Thanks a lot Klemme, I'm looking forward to this. I've also been listening to the Dan bootleg you posted recently and am really enjoying that. Keith Carlock sounds great.

Thanks again for your efforts!
