Did you ever hear of the album you got to walk it like you talk it or you’ll lose that beat pre steely Dan it has a song on it called dog eat dog I had the album years ago
I had heard about this one, but comletely forgot about it.Thanks to you, we have added it to the discography.Thanks for your help. We even gave you credit.
Hi, Brian!
Are you aware of the Linda Hoover album “I Mean to Shine” recorded in 1970?
It was shelved by Roulette Records due to publishing disputes. “I Mean to Shine” was finally released by Omnivore Recordings in 2022, in vinyl, CD and digital.
“In the summer of 1970, Linda Hoover, then 19, entered Manhattan’s Advantage Sound Studio to cut her first album with Gary Katz, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen leading a team that also included guitarists (and future Steely Dan members) Denny Dias & Jeff “Skunk” Baxter, and Eric Weissberg, saxophonist Jerome Richardson, plus members of the Dick Cavett Orchestra. https://omnivorerecordings.com/shop/i-mean-to-shine/. Google has a lot of the press surrounding the release.
I hope this is helpful! Please let me know if I can provide further information.
Best regards,
Jay Willingham
I dont usualy allow links to other website in the comments section because I get hundreds of them a day, but I made an exception for this one because I thought it would be of interest to the readers and myself included. Thanks Jay
