Great band, just goes to show your daddy didn't have to be an orthodontist for you to make it in a rock band. Skunk Baxter could rip a guitar, and left Steely Dan as a founding member to join the Doobs, then became a self- taught analyst for the missile defense program at the Pentagon. Early on played bass with Jimmy James and the Blue Flames (Hendrix was fronting).
This guy is nothing short of amazing.

Here's Baxter and his famous Manchu in a Steely Dan cover with some original SD folks and greats like Nathan East. Singer does a great job.
