Deacon Blues (Steely Dan) 4 Horn Alto

Perhaps the most recognisable of the tracks from the 1977 album ‘Aja’, ‘Deacon Blues’ is one of Steely Dan’s greatest hits. The combination of Blue-Eyed Soul and Pop sensibilities ensured this tune peaked at #19 on the Billboard charts. The song was the band’s fifth Top 20 hit and stayed in the Top 40 for eight weeks.
