How many New York City shows are on the schedule for Steely Dan?

THE kings of jazz rock -- Steely Dan -- are still reelin' in the ears for an eight-show Beacon Theatre residency that opened Tuesday with a towering performance. At this show, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen sang that they'd never go "back to their old school" -- yet the band's principals were totally old-school in their pristine, studio-quality versions of their hits. The concert bowed with a front-to-back, note-for-note rendition of their classic jazz-rock masterpiece "Aja," the band's best-selling album.

It's ranked No. 143 among Rolling Stone's top 500 albums. Subsequent New York performances will give the same treatment to SD albums "The Royal Scam" and "Gaucho."
