Just wanted to say thanks for uploading this... I love the fish!! I wrote this tune and it's my only one on the album really, and not one many people pick out.. so thanks for enjoying it and posting this lovely vid, it means a lot personally.
@alexwhiteesp - whole-tone descending minor chords... weapon of choice for Steely Dan. Got a few on 'The Special Guest Stars' lp. Works with relative maj7th chords n'all. e.g. Cmaj7 to F#maj7 or Em9 to Bbm9...take yer pick.
@alexwhiteesp Ha, you're welcome. I really love this song. I've listened to it on many rainy bus journeys while dreaming of being somewhere else. That bit at the end always wakes me up and stops me snoozing :)
come back inside is my favorite off 'No need to be down hearted'. followed closely by shore song and Woken by a kiss.
Wonderful to have heard you have tour dates planned again. Any chance you might pop across the water to Ireland?
my favourite ESP song.
