The band has announced that during this summer's tour, a la Van Morrison doing Astral Weeks, they will be doing some special 'setlist shows' featuring one of three chosen albums to be performed in its entirety. Scam would be a logical choice since all of the songs have shown up in tours of recent years.

And speaking of duende, I think Scam is where Fagen really came into his own vocally. He becomes the lowlife protagonist with gleeful relish on these tracks. Also I like his old quotes about 'the Fez': that it's a “disco song which suddenly has a lot of chords.” And that, “you can dance to parts of it, it's just that you have to stop in the middle once in a while.”
