Favorite Steely Dan song

[Connemara]

WELP?! For me, nothing beats the live arrangement of Sign in Stranger from the early '90s. You can hear it on the "Alive in America" album and YouTube:

Love all Steely Dan songs.

I've heard Deacon Blues hundreds of times. Still makes me shake my head for the pure musical invention. Adoration, actually.

I would say Peg.

Florida Room if you allow Fage/Becker non-Dan creations.
