I actually didn't know the origin of the name "Steely Dan" but know it now. I look at my CD collection a little differently after finding out!
No matter, one of the best and most talented bands ever and this is such a sad loss. I didn't know about the Hawaii connection, so am grateful for those that mentioned it. Out of all their songs, I find it very difficult to pick a favorite but love the versions of Bodhisattva and Third World Man on "Alive in America". But then again, I could have picked dozens more which are just as good.
