David Crosby is a longtime Steely Dan super fan; he’s called Donald Fagen one of his all-time songwriting heroes, and he lists Aja and the Royal Scam among his favorite albums ever created. But he never actually got a chance to work with Fagen until the sessions for his upcoming LP For Free (out July 23rd) where they teamed up to create “Rodriguez for a Night.”

One afternoon this past spring, David Crosby found himself facing two unlikely scenarios: He was in New York’s grimy East Village, on the other side of the country from his California home, and the notoriously assertive musician was being given orders.
“Turn off your cell phone, Croz,” says Michael League, the bearded, Brooklyn-based multi-instrumentalist and leader of the multi-genre band Snarky Puppy, sitting in the control room of a funky studio above a bodega.
