紐約市為已故Steely Dan合唱團團員Walter Becker劃了一條Walter
Becker Way（Walter Becker路 ），以向這位該市Queens區長大的搖滾樂手致敬。
紐約市將於年底向Steely Dan合唱團的創辦人之一的Walter Becker致敬，他出生地Queens區的一條路，將以他這位名列搖滾樂名人堂的藝人為名。
這條路的一角是 Walter Becker成長的地方，位於112街附近這條路10月28日將在一個慶祝活動後改名Walter
Becker Way。
Walter Becker的遺孀Delia表示：Walter的粉絲在全美辦活動、他們老是有創意去辦不一樣的表演。到時候特別來賓和Walter的朋友、同事和歌迷們都將齊聚一堂。
Walter Becker和Donald Fagen一起在Steely Dan合作了四十多年，他在和食道癌抗爭了一段時間後，2017年9月3日不幸去世。
Steely Dan合唱團是一個錄音室臨時編組（Studio Unit），由Walter Becker和Donald Fagen領銜，樂手都來自錄音室裡的職業伴奏，1981-1992年二人曾經分手，他們在歷年暢銷歌星排行榜獲得第382名，成名曲是1972年第6名的Do It Again。
Steely Dan合唱團於 2001年進入搖滾樂名人堂。
Do It Again
Steely Dan
In the mornin' you go gunnin' for the man
who stole your water
And you fire till he is done in but they
catch you at the border
And the mourners are all singin' as they
drag you by your feet
But the hangman isn't hangin' so they put
you on the street
You go back, Jack, do it again, wheels
turinin' 'round and 'round
You go back, Jack, do it again
When you know she's no high climber then
you find your only friend
In a room with your two timer, but you're
sure you're near the end
Then you love a little wild one, and she
brings you only sorrow
All the time you know she's smilin', you'll
be on your knees tomorrow
Chorus
Guitar Solo
Keyboard Solo
Now you swear and kick and beg us that
yopu're not a gamblin' man;
Then you find you're back in Vegas with a
handle in your hand
Your black cards can bring you money so
you hide them when you're able
In the land of milk and honey you must
put them on the table
Chorus
