Since I didn't see Michael McDonald with Steely Dan recently, I dug up "Pretzel Logic" from the New York Rock and Soul Revue at the Beacon Theatre in 1991. BTW, this is a great album if you haven't heard it recently. Things to look for: It's a black and white version obviously. Donald Fagen's voice is in fine form. We have Mike in full Kenny Rogers mode. I agree with Fagen when he says, "My favorite part of the show, though, was when Mike sang the line about the shoes."
