Sad indeed. :\'( But he only started with Steely Dan in 2008, long after their heyday.

All-in, 31 members of Steely Dan over the years have gone to that Great Recording Studio in the Sky, not counting Walter Becker himself.  :-\\

If he toured with them, I wonder if he performed when we saw them live at Ravinia in 2011?  ???
