Hi all,
Following on from my earlier post. I'm going to try `and put a definitive list together of the above, and hopefully build to include liner notes, supporting players, artist comment and other supporting information. Clearly this will take a while!!
Any input from any or all of you here would be really helpful. Be it either actual info or anecdotal that we can try and track down would be good. No piece of info is too small.
We've had a great start already from Tony Favia which I've copied in below. Feel free to add to the post!

Just an afterword thanking DPot (and Tony F) for the great start on a production credit list. It only took us three years....
Our go at it is in the WB Master List section of WBU.
Thanks hourstuff will include!
D-Mod Yes pages from the book look good. Will go through it!
Just realized -- Anthony Robustelli's recent Steely Dan FAQ has a whole chapter on Becker and Fagen as session musicians, songwriters, and producers, with entries (and info) for many of Becker's production titles! Unless someone gets to this earlier, I'll scan the chapter for you D Pot -- but not for at least another week or so. Maybe someone else has the book; it's chapter 20
EDIT: Hang up a minute -- have sent pages to D Pot, who will let us know if they'll do ...
Perhaps we should also include his work on Rabbit Ears' 1993 production, 'Mose the Fireman'. There's not much in the way of Liner Notes for this one, but here's the pertinent stuff:
"John Beasley and Steely Dan co-founder Walter Becker deliver a rousing score that brings to life the sights and sounds at the turn of the century."
