Gaucho Poll

lmao they do have a similar melody

mike post rocks though

the "my rival" guitar sounds like it got repurposed in sheryl crow's "my favorite mistake"

xp yeah no disrespect to Mike Post. For some reason I imagined Becker and Fagen turning their noses up at him, but on second thought that's a flimsy assumption; I remember Fagen talking in an interview about how TV music was a major inspiration for him. I would bet that he appreciated Post's work in a kitschy way

Basically "let's take this kinda cheesy TV theme music and make it super harmonically complex"
