I had the "pleasure of seeing Steely Dan open for Slade and Humble Pie. To be
honest they were dreadful. But there was a photographer there who'd heard me on
the radio plugging Slade and introduced himself. I wanna say it was Chuck Pulin
but I'm not positive. Anyway, back stage he made a point of introducing me to
Elliot who sat in on Reeling In The Years at those shows. I knew the name, and
was pleased to say hi.
