And more on the fire (and a continuation of the list of artists involved):

I have a feeling this story is just starting to be told...

For sure. However, Azoff commenting on Steely Dan but not the Eagles is interesting. Of course, I'm sure they reached out to him and asked him to comment upon the Steely Dan masters since he was the only one who had made any inquiries before this article. Still, his "who knows" response, and apparent lack of interest in pursuing it further, is a bit surprising compared to other peoples' responses... especially considering his reputation. I suppose if the possession of the physical masters was nothing but a power play and a matter of principle, - ie, I don't really need them but they shouldn't have them because they're mine - then it could be something to shrug off as a pity but not that important. Certainly the article and Don's 2011 comments don't characterize it that way, though.
