Walter Becker - Circus Money (2008)

The bassist, quieter of the Steely Dan duo, who appears nothing
like the rock icon he is, has waited 14 years to do his second solo
album apart from the hugely successful jazz-tinged rock duo. You
get a dozen tunes — mostly collaborations of Becker and his album
producer cohort Larry Klein. Some of the above sidemen are only
heard on one or two tunes; Goldings’ B-3 aids the
rockin’ rhythm of Downtown Canon — his only participation.
The lyrics are hip, sardonic and often conjure up a whole special
story or scenario with just a few well-chosen phrases. Bob Is Not
Your Uncle Anymore is a wonderful creation based on the Britishism
«Bob’s Your Uncle;» it creates the sad nostalgia you feel when
seeing a place you enjoyed in its heyday but which is now decrepit.
The title tune, however, is not sardonic — it’s about a
little kid saving up pennies to go see the circus. Becker is
evidently hung up on reggae, and that special rhythm infuses many
of the tunes. I don’t care for it, but like one of Monty
Alexander’s Telarc jazz albums, he has smoothly incorporated
the rhythm into some very attractive tunes.
