Aja is Fagen and Becker's sixth and if they were accused of obsessing on finding studio perfection, one could argue they found it. It sold over 5M and became a damned benchmark for…

  9. Steely Dan, Pretzel Logic, 1974 on ABC Records

    Third Steely Dan studio LP out in 1974 on ABC Records and the last to include the full quintet: Walter Becker, Donald Fagen, Denny Dias, Jim Hodder, and Jeff "Skunk" Baxter - plus studio musicians. "Ricky Don't Lose That Number" may have become their most well known song over time, though I love "Any Major Dude Will Tell You" and the title track. My copyβ€”via private saleβ€”is a 1974 Santa Maria pressing. with the inside gatefold that actually works vertically (if you're reading on […]

  12. Steely Dan, Gaucho, 1980 on MCA

    This was the seventh Steely Dan full length and their only one on MCA records, following six on ABC. It would also be their last studio album for ~20 years. Though Keith Jarrett would later sue and be awarded writing credit on the title track here it is still credited just to Becker and Fagan. My copyβ€”via private saleβ€”is a 1981 repress from the $uper $tars at $uper $avings line (see the grey logo on the cover).

This is when Walter and Donald forged the band's true identity -- trading some of the rock of Can't Buy A Thrill for a tighter, jazzier fusion sound. The album's sort of unique in that it's the only Steely Dan album where…

  17. Steely Dan, The Royal Scam, 1976 on ABC

    Fifth studio album from Donald Fagen, Walter Becker et. al., produced by Gary Katz. Steely Dan can be a bit divisive, and gets dismissed sometimes as "Dad rock" but I really appreciate the songwriting and musicianship of all these records. The Royal Scam includes "Kid Charlemagne" and "Haitian Divorce." My copy β€”via Mystery Train Records in Gloucester MAβ€”is a Santa Maria pressing with the multicolored ABC labels.
