I own each of the 7 albums that the duo released before going their
separate ways on vinyl. Instead of repurchasing them individually on CD, I sprang
for the Citizen Steely Dan boxed set,
which spreads those albums, along with a handful of odds and ends, over 4
discs. As it happened, everything from Countdown
To Ecstasy except for the final two tracks was on Disc 1, while one of my
all-time favorite Steely Dan songs was pushed onto the second CD. Had I not
forgotten that “King Of The World” was on this album, it may well have made it
into my initial set of faves.
Favorite tracks:
King Of The World
Show Biz Kids
Bodhisattva
Razor Boy
