This album is almost as good as Aja in some respects, yet still doesn't quite capture the same energy. If you thought Aja was Jazz influenced, then get ready for an even bigger reason why Jazz enthusiests adore them just as much as we do. Why SD aren't in Jazz-Rock currently is quite beyond me.

Parts of the album, such as the first track, 'Babylon Sisters', really feels just like its predecessor, but there is enough diversity here from the last venture to make the experience worthy of checking out. It certainly isn't an Aja clone in the least. It just continues waht Aja started for the band; going even further into Jazz-Rock/Fusion territory. When compared to the band's debute release, it's hard to believe that the same two men still came up with the music. While entire line-ups of the band proper have revolved and changed for years, the founding members were still here at this point, so the magic is still there, unbelievably. I credit it to the fact that the band never repeated themselves, that is to say, never do you hear two Steely Dan albums that sound exactly alike. That is a true testamate to the creativity present here.

1. Babylon Sisters 5:50
2. Hey Nineteen 5:07
3. Glamour Profession 7:29
4. Gaucho 5:32

6. My Rival 4:31
7. Third World Man 5:13

Killer post, thanks so much! Also thanks for RS links, but to do my share for you, I downloaded one of the files from HF.

Thank you very much for this rip! I appreciate HQ scans you always provide.
Is this Ultradisc (as scans suggest) or Ultradisc II ?

I hunt for some UD + UD II releases to compare them... :)

Thank you for this excellent post - the MFSL versions of this and Aja remain my favourites of all Steely Dan reissues.
