Indeed. Steely Dan put out a lot of great work over the years. Its never gets old, even though I seem to be.

Most of us listen to headphones in the office. REM sounds like a good choice.

Brad Delp had an amazing voice. Too bad depression got the best of him.
Here you can listen to hear Brad's voice without the music. Just wonderful.

I've done that when I had an office of my own - currently listening to Vienna (what a wonderful song) from Ultravox.
A male friend of mine gave me a gift of that album back in the day - when we were both undergrads.
He was intense and inarticulate in that glorious male way as he shoved the album in my direction and muttered, over mediocre coffee (the best available in our urban space in the early 80s), "here's a present, you might like it."
I still have it.

He must have really thought a lot of you, to give you the album. In some circles, that would have been perceived as a courting gesture, seeing how that was one of the most iconic albums of that decade.
[doublepost=1551137986][/doublepost]Steve Perry is another one with an iconic voice, and one that has been cemented in the walls of 70s - 80s rock. One of my favs.
Great band! I saw them live some years ago, and it was a great show. My favorite song of theirs is The Voice, but Vienna is a great one as well.
Listening to a just released song from the upcoming Alan Parsons album "The Secret". Sounds like an Alan Parsons song. Not bad. Kind of a throwback to some of his older stuff. I rather like the singers voice.
The soundtrack of Once Upon A Time In The West. (Ennio Morricone).

Well as I went for my lunchtime walk, Parklife did come on the playlist!
You know how they say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery: Well, I am listening to Blur (Parklife) just now.
Can't fault REM - my first two REM CDs were bought in Kosovo in, er, 2000.
Good choice, I will join you while having several Stellas.
Well I think @Scepticalscribe reminded me to push them to the top of my playlist earlier in the week.
Enjoy the Stella’s.
Yes, I may have done so.
However, you most certainly returned the compliment, as I spent yesterday evening listening to Blur.
Currently blasting Decksandrumsandrockandroll by Propellerheads. First time in quite a long while, and definitely the first time I learned that the opening track "Take California" was the song used in the first ever iPod TV advertisement. Neat.
My favorite track on the album, however, probably is History Repeating featuring Shirley Bassey.
