Everyone else signed off on the CD full of ’70s songs, except for Steely Dan’s Donald Fagen and Walter Becker. Your email address will not be published. Before Jagger (was it he?) If it had been on the accompanying CD, “Dirty Work” would have found a new audience. Times are hard You're afraid to pay the fee So you find yourself somebody Who can do the job for free When you need a bit of lovin' David Palmer sang lead on “Dirty Work” and is all over ‘Thrill.” But he left Steely Dan in 1973 when they released their second album.

The answer I got: Steely Dan refused to sign off on it. They wouldn’t let the song be part of the “American Hustle” soundtrack. SoundExchange, which collects and distributes digital royalties from firms like Spotify, Pandora, and SiriusXM, wants to pay Palmer separately under his original Steely Dan agreement as a featured vocalist.

I love good rock ‘n’ roll and have always been intrigued by …
Some time ago I asked the folks connected to David O. Russell’s “American Hustle” why they didn’t include Steely Dan’s track “Dirty Work” on their soundtrack.
1978? I did immediately think that it had something to do with the lead vocalist.
Imagine how much better the song would have done had it been included on the “Hustle” album.
PS Everyone else on the “Hustle” album signed off on the soundtrack, from Elton John and Paul McCartney to America, ELO, the Bee Gees and Donna Summer.
And you know I'll be around, I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah I notice on DogstarRadio.com which monitors SiriusXM playlists that once “American Hustle” kicked into high gear at the box office “Dirty Work” started getting four or five spins a day.
Alastair from Stranraer, United Kingdom An outtake from the sessions shows that in an earlier version of the song, the phrase Dirty Work was reference to sexual shenanigans.
Post was not sent - check your email addresses! Like a thousand times before I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah If that happened on Pandora and iTunes Radio, as well as digital downloads from Steely Dan albums on iTunes and Amazon, Palmer has an interesting case.
Now Belloni reports in THR that Palmer is suing Steely Dan over digital royalties concerning “Dirty Work” and those other tracks. Required fields are marked *.

David Palmer sang lead on “Dirty Work” and is all over ‘Thrill.” But he left Steely Dan in 1973 when they released their second album. Steely Dan wrapped up their six-night residency at New York’s Beacon Theatre on Tuesday night, offering a slew of classics including a special rendition of their hit “Dirty Work” that featured guest lead vocals from Jenny Lewis. He wrote the Intelligencer column for NY Magazine in the mid 90s, reporting on the OJ Simpson trial, as well as for the real Parade magazine (when it was owned by Conde Nast), and has written for the New York Observer, Details, Vogue, Spin, the New York Times, NY Post, Washington Post, and NY Daily News among many publications.
The collaboration came near the end of the set, which also featured staples like “Hey Nineteen,” “Aja,” “Kid Charlemagne,” “Rikki Don’t Lose That Number,” “Peg” and closer “My Old School.” Donald Fagen and company also returned to the Beacon stage for an encore that included the Dan favorite “Reelin’ in the Years.”.
