RIP Walter Becker...thanks for sharing the music with us🕊🎶🎵...like Lennon & McCartney, half of a perfect pair...
you crossed the diamond with the pearl and you turned the music world around. thanks so much Walter
I'm a little sad that Walter has left us too soon, but mostly I'm thankful for the great music he made while he was here. His music continues to make my life more enjoyable. If there's an afterlife, I hope I can meet him over there.
These are the days that you dread... I was fortunate enough to see them in 14 and 16 thinking that this fall would be my last time because of their ages...
RIP - Becker today you earn the Ultimate Reward
Peace especially to Walter's family and friends. He will be missed by countless fans worldwide.
I am sad to hear we have lost you Walter - one of the great songwriter, guitarist, bassplayers of all time! RIP
Steely Dan is and always has been my most favorite music ever in the whole wide world. The end of an era Since high school at 16 or 17 and I'm 59 now. Their so smooth jazzy, blues, etc. They're music was perfection. Pure beauty to my ears. Walter Becker was 1/2 of this musical royalty. Your music will forever live on and reign as the greatest ever. RIP Mr. WALTER BECKER. God bless and keep you. Forever in my heart ❤.
Never put off your intentions. Wish I had seen Steely Dan June 2016 in Chicago. Rest in peace Walter. Donald please keep the music coming. Loved you all since you started. Thank you for years of beautiful music...
I was 12 whenI first heard Peg on the radio, and it was sublime. I wore the grooves out of their records ever since. They are a major part of the soundtrack of my life that I turn to often. My heart is broken. RIP Walter, and thank you so much.
I am heartbroken. I discovered Steely Dan My junior yr of high school and worshipped them since. Never in my adult life have I not felt their music was the soundtrack of my life. So glad I got to see Steely Dan live back in the day. Play on Walter...thank you and RIP😔😢✌
Kees Brakenhoff. So am I. When I first heard Do it Again I knew this was MY music and that feeling has remained ever since. Was dumbfounded when I heard the news on tv last night and later cursed and cried. A bit embarrased to say this. Your reaction and that of so many others make me feel like being part of a big family that all share the same loss. So thank you for you for that.
Kees Brakenhoff u r welcome...Dan Fans til the end!
Definitely!
Rest in peace, Walter. Thank you for all you and your music brought to the world. You will be missed.
Thank you for your music, thank you for your love and thanks for being a wonderful person ,,
having been an avid Steely Dan fan, I was always impresses by the fact that Walter was an accomplished guitarist yet they would bring in an incredible roster of guitarists to also contribute to the final production of what they wanted the final music to be. A true artist.
RIP Walter...I discovered you in High school, you got me through some tough times...may you live on forever my brother.
So glad I got to see SD during their reunion tour in 1993. I remember Walter even sung a song, which was really surprising! The audience was speechless, but I stood up and cheered really loudly for Walter, he was like 'Thank you.' It was really cool! Rest In Peace, Walter.
Book of liars. I love that song
Great mellow song...God I will miss him!
RIP Walter, I have been a fan for many many years,loved your music and your sense of humour. Will never forget you......PEACE
Walter was brilliant maybe an alien among us, R I P brother.
Another sad day for the R&R family rip Walter .
RIP Walter Becker. A true genius and the soundtrack of my life since 1977.
Rest in peace Mr. Becker. Your contributions to the the music world will never be forgotten.
It is sad but remember and enjoy his music. I do it all the time. The Dan never will be forgotten.
Just heard the sad news, of the passing of Walter Becker, I'm going back a bit when i heard that song Do It Again on the radio i was hooked from that time, with Steely Dan, Rest in Peace, Mr Walter Becker x
Another shining light of musical genius gone onto better things. Perhaps his demons and his troubles that helped him be that genius, will have left him now and he can rest in quiet peace. Bless you Walt, I'll be listening to your music until I die 💕
Your love for and fear for humanity is evident in all your work. Your sense of sardonic humour and sensual harmonic jizz and jazz reflected a poetic reality for so many for so many years. Thank you Walter. See you on Mizar 5 ....
Good Bye Walter and thanks for all the Whack!
Great music lives forever....thanks for so many memories.rip
One of my favorite all time bands. RIP Walter. Thank you for sharing yourself with the world!
Rest In Peace, Walter Becker! So sad that another connection to my youth is gone. Thanks for all the great music you left us.
Such sad news, only tempered by the legacy of superb music we have been gifted. That will live forever.
Steely Dan is one of the best groups in the 70's/world!! Thank you Walter as no one even comes close to your sound today! RIP!! Love you!!
Days later I'm still in the shock of such a great loss-to the world. Thanks man, for the incredible ride-the ride of a musical lifetime. Godspeed Brother.
RIP Walter. You have left us some wonderful music. I can still recall the thrill when I bought my first Dan album (Katy Lied) at age 17. I have been thrilled by the Dan ever since.
RIP Walter Becker. Thankyou for the beautiful music.
Hard to believe he's gone. RIP Mr. Becker, the world of music is poorer without you. You played a big part in the lives of so many people; you gave us so much. Condolences to your family and friends. And a special thought for Mr. Fagen.
Thank you for your great contribution to my life Walter. I started with you guys in '73. Sorry to see you run out of road at this fine point in the trip.
RIP Mr Becker. Thank you for enriching my life with your music ❤
well said!!!!!
My thoughts and prayers go out to Walters friends and family. Sad day for we have lost a musical genius! Your music will live on in our souls for so many years to come. Thank you Walter for all the great music and bringing much joy in my life!
Sad, sad news. Great music. Becker and Fagen are up there with the very best of song writers. Yes, even with 2 blokes from our part of the world. Greetings to all Dan fans from Liverpool, England.
The band of my youth. Rest easy Walter. Thanks for the great music. Now we dolly back, now we fade to black.
Damn it, I want to do it again... vale Walter Becker, you and Donald made the music of my time...
RIP Walter. Words cannot express the loss of such a prolific musician and composer as you. Music is what it is because of Becker and Fagan. You will be missed and music will mourn one of the greatest forevermore now that you're gone. I just cannot process this sad news...
Wow, Thank you & you'll never ever be forgotten! Love your music, and it is great to this day. My condolences to all relatives, family & friends of Walter Becker, may you smile, and know many fans miss him very much. I have fond memories which will always be a part of my life. Music industry really needs Great Bands as Steely Dan . God Bless You All.
Missing you Walter Becker - R.I.P. ~ you truly left your mark upon this earth.
Walter Becker will always be remembered by me for the Guitar solo in the middle of Green Earrings. Loved the way he played the guitar and he will be forever in my heart and mind as a true Guitar legend and an underrated on at that.
the legacy will continue
Super soul brother WB...thank you for the years. You are loved and will be deeply missed. Revelation observation. Steer the ship and land the plane. Safe haven. Peace 🕶
What sad news. I will miss one of the great musicians of my life. RIP Walter. :-(
What a genius. Steely Dan defied classification. Just pure brilliance. Thank you Walter for the happiness and joy you brought to the world.
I'm saddened. RIP Walter Becker, class musician.
R.I.P WALTER BECKER... so so so sad....... the best are leaving... one by one... sincere condolences to the family and closed ones and the world of music... 1/2 of Steely Dan... sad sad...
Rest in peace my brother and many many thanks
Part of my life went with Walts passing, so sad and all I can say is rest in peace dear Walt. A long time fan who resides in Cyprus.
thank you for the great great music......R.I.P. Walter
Talented musician. I saw Walter when he opened for the Beatles in 1969. - R.I.P.
Still reeling this in, so tragic. So much of a loss... still and all, lucky to be in on a fragment of the intentions of this man's creative dreams
Eleven Tracks of Whack was my way into the Steely Dan music. For a year that was about the only CD I was listening to. I'm so sad you are gone Walter.
VERY nice tribute....Thanks so much for sharing! My heart is broken over this loss....SUCH a major talent who co-wrote some of the greatest songs I've EVER heard... Godspeed, Walter...We love you.
you were one of my musical heroes...Your music will live on R.I.P Mr Becker
The Cosmos got one of the greats today. Look up into the sky tonight and you might see a star burning a little brighter than all the others in a spot that your not sure was there the last time you looked.
George Harrison said "All things must pass". Walter said "Everything must go". Walt lived the life he wanted and no one could ask for more than that. On good soldier of rock... into the ether. XO NB
Any Major Dude ... is missed ... while still loved & remembered
another part of our youth has gone on before us, walk proud, you have left your mark on us all...
Simply a Genius! RIP Walter and Thank You.
Rest in peace and Heaven , eternal glory and Thank You for everything Legend ...
Fuckin' ass, Walter...I was so hoping the next news I'd hear from you was about a new album. The world is lessened by your passing. You were loved. R.I.P.
I am sad. Thanks for all you´ve given.
Rest In peace Walter. I am so grateful for your music and talent.

Walter Becker - 1950-2017
I first heard Steely Dan in 1972 when they played Reelin' in the years on the radio .... Such was the effect, I had to stop what I was doing and listen ... it knocked me out .. and when Johnny Walker said it was Steely Dan ..... all I could say was who the fuck are Steely Dan?, I immediately went out and purchased "Can't buy a thrill" and learned very quickly that these guys were not one trick rock n roll hicksters but very clever composers of music and lyrical geniuses.
Since that day they became my favourite band and their music became the soundtrack to my life ... In 73 (or maybe 74) I had a ticket to see "The Dan" (as I, along with others in the know had started calling them) it was to be at the Hippodrome ... I went with fellow "Danster" mate Barry Kennedy ... Only to find Donald Fagan had laryngitis and the gig was cancelled .... I then had a 25 year wait before they played their next gig in the UK ... it was worth the wait.
Walter Becker and Donald Fagan have thrilled me through the years with their brilliant compositions featuring the best rock and Jazz session musicians in the universe .. People like, Steve Gadd, Larry Carlton, Michael Brecker, Victor Feldman, Rick Derringer, Michael Omartian, Jay Graydon, Chuck Rainey, Tom Scott, Wayne Shorter .... and not forgetting their old mate on backing vocals and harmonies Michael McDonald.
Their music sounds as fresh today as it did when they started out ... and as well as owning all their albums on vinyl and CD, they now feature heavily in my current Spotify download collection.
I embrace all genres of music but The Dan have a special place in my heart.
Walter ... your music and special cynically, delicious sense of humour will be greatly missed ... I'm sure your already up there arranging an impromptu version of Deacon Blues, with Miles on trumpet, Hendrix on Guitar, Bird on sax and Jeff Porcaro on drums ..
If you've ever seen a squonks tears, then look at mine" ....
Walter Becker - one half of Steely Dan ....RIP
Thank You Walter Becker, You gave parts of my life meaning and magic you will never know, Call Me Deacon Blue. RIP
RIP Walter Becker. Your music will live on forever. Condolences to family,friends ,and Donald Fagen.
This is a sad day. I'm still trying to cope with it. It seems so unfair..., he was still young. We've lost a great musician, a true professional, a genius. My condolences to his immediate family and friends in their time of sorrow. From one musician to another, I count myself as one of his friends. Thank you Walter for your music, your inspiration and the wonderful memories. Goodbye my friend.
i never did this before but i am sitting here sick to my as i feel a piece of my life has been taken away. These are the things i find hard to accept about life.I know all the history being a New Yorker and i followed the Dan from beginning until now. I first saw them at Avery Fisher Hall with ELO,when Donald stopped the music and told the sound crew that they wouldn´t continue unless they got it together! Seeing them numerous times, meeting them on the Letterman show with my arm around Roger Nichols,and being a musician,i am sad very sad. I thank you Dear Walter for your wonderful music that made my life worth living and no one will ever take your place. I just wish you didn't leave so soon. R.I.P.
Walter may you rest in peace for eternity. I wish all your family and friends condolences in this dark time. Your contributions to the music world will live on forever. I hope you have one of
your Strats with you. The Big Man might want you to play a tune for him sometime. God speed brother. You will be sorely missed by many.
thank you walter for your amazing sounds through my lifetime RIP
thanks, Mr. Becker is part of my life.
Thanks for the music fueling so many dates..
RiP Walter
I bought two tickets to see SD around 73-74 but it was a no show and tickets were refunded however I kept mine for years until they were lost
Walter Becker and Donald Fagen's original songs did more to raise the musical I.Q. of rock and roll fans around the world than anyone since The Beatles. R.I.P. Walter.
Unreal how fast you put this together.
Guitar Overkill Talent.....
No, not now, not yet no ... so sad that he is gone... so so much more important that he lived.
Only time will prove how what a genius he was...
Good memories of a Great Band. RIP
Jez Walt, why did you have to go and do that. It's the things i'll miss the most. Won't be the same without you dewd.R.I.P.
i fucking hate cancer , it took my girlfriend i had 3 years ago and is till miss her, and i miss Mr. Becker also for his musical contributions in Steely Dan
Talent without limits, rest in peace Walter
