Another song from Steely Dan’s Gaucho album is finished. The funny thing about Steely Dan songs is this: Once someone starts working on one they cannot stop until they are done. It’s a rule. Here is “Time Out of Mind” with a piano, and without one. And now we are out of time.

This one is a remake of a song I posted here in July 2021, called “Pidigori.” Not a lot of modulation going on there. But then again it’s not jazz, right? This was changed on Sunday so take a listen again if you already heard it. Old Versions: More Music
