Strong Songs"Babylon Sisters" by Steely DanHere comes that Santa Ana wind again, blowing us right into the slightly skewed world of Steely Dan.It was never a question whether Strong Songs would do a Steely Dan episode, it was more a question of which song to focus on.

It's also arguably the definitive recording of Bernard Purdie's signature Purdie Shuffle.Written by: Walter Becker and Donald FagenAlbum: Gaucho (1980)Listen/Buy...

Strong Songs"The Chain" and "Dreams" by Fleetwood MacThunder only happens when it's raining, and Strong Songs only crams two songs into an episode when it's super warranted.This episode warrants just such a pairing, with a focus on two tunes by the great Fleetwood Mac.

Strong Songs"World 1-1" from Super Mario Bros.Classic video game consoles like the Nintendo Entertainment System didn't just play games; they also played music.
