Peter Erskine talks about his time with Steely Dan here (starts around 27 minutes), interesting...

I don't know if it has been mentioned, Erskine updates a "Infinity Drummers playlist", he talks about it on FaceBook (don't know how to link to that), also here

Here's a link to his Google docs spreadsheet with interesting comments on each song/drummer

Also, there's a youtube playlist here https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLn_d ... bMjtVXjy0A
