Steely Dan just embarked on their first tour since the recent death of co-founder Walter Becker, and as a little tribute, Donald Fagen and co. have added Becker's song "Book Of Liars" to their setlist for the first time in 22 years. "[The last] few nights, I’ve been doing that," Fagen tells The Orilia Packet in a new interview. "We show some pictures from Walter’s earlier years. I don’t like to be sentimental about these, but the audience really seems to appreciate it. I think it’s a good thing to do...I think he sang it better than I do, but I give it my best shot.” Watch their performance at Shea's Performing Arts Center in Buffalo, NY last night below.
