Damn dawg, I'm just seeing this. The @ didn't come to me.
Best to least:
...
1) Aja
2) Royal Scam (My favorite)
3) Gaucho
4) Pretzel Logic (Might be 3rd best...)
5) Countdown to Ecstasy
6) Can't buy a thrill
Haven't heard the year 2000 Steely Dan albums or Katy Lied. I didn't care for Katy Lied when I listened to it, though.
If you buy any Steely Dan album it has to be Aja or Royal Scam. I love both a lot.
My favorite Steely Dan song is Caves of Altamira (off Royal Scam). There are a bunch of other songs I love by them, too. Steely Dan is my favorite band, btw (them and Radiohead).

Yeah, the only reason I don't rank Royal Scam over Aja is..... well... Aja just has some GODLY ass songs on it, you know? It's Aja. lol

I enjoy royal scam more just bc it feels more like a summertime album. Plus I heard them both at wto completely different phases in my life. Aja Is he better slbum but royal scam hits me hard. I dunno aja hits me hard too.

Album in my Avi is my favorite solo work from Fagen by far. Dude's a legit- LEGIT musical genius. If he was born blind like Stevie Wonder, Fagen would have fukked up the musical world something serious. lmao

I've actually never heard Night Fly
go get it right now. It's an album from the perspective of that 1950's time when we thought everything would be like The Jetsons in 10-20 years and Russia+Cuba could possibly nuke us at any moment.
BRILLIANT album.
Depreciating Asset
Please pawg responsibly
I really liked some of the joints of theirs that I've heard. Their sound is still ill even today. Pharrell used to always mention them as his biggest influence. But I have barely scratched the surface of their catalogue. I heard the recent grammy winning album 'Two Against Nature' and a couple of their classic joints but that's it. I really need to dive in fully one of these days.
