Maestros Of Cool: A Tribute To Steely Dan (Various Artists)

"Maestros of Cool" is a fabulous compilation of cover versions of songs from Steely Dan. "Maestros of Cool" is far too good for the tribute album stamp. What we´ve got here is a compilation disc featuring an incredibly wide assemblage of musicians, most of whom, although likely unknown to listeners, have not only been influenced by Steely Dan, but have gone on to create spectacular and unique music that ventures far beyond that of their mentors. "Maestros of Cool" presents 24 tracks on 2 CDs with artists from the USA, Europe and Australia, feat. Donald Fagen, Bernard Purdie, Randy Brecker, John Patitucci, Dave Weckl, John Beasley, Marco Minnemann.
