    Another sad loss of a great musician. A couple of months ago, I watched a recent video clip of a Steely Dan concert and he did not look or perform well. When he didn't appear at the Classic West show, I knew it wasn't a good sign. I wonder what will happen to Steely Dan now.

    RIP Walter Becker. Thanks for all the great music.

    I'm glad I saw them 4 times, but this hurts... I like them even more than the Eagles.. I think they are my #6 all-time.....

    I was born in 1982, and 99.9% of what I love (music, movies, standup) was made before I was born, and I'm beginning to have nothing left.... I never looked forward to an album.

    I'm sad to acknowledge the bad news of another terrible loss from the great musicians of my youth. Condolences to all who knew and loved this talented man. The good news, as ever, is that the music lives on.

    I wish Donald Fagen all the best as he decides how best to move forward with the band.

    RIP Walter Becker. Really sad to hear this and Steely Dan was another band I grew up on.
