#AlbumForToday : #SteelyDan – #CountdownToEcstasy (1973).
Steely Dan’s sophomore LP is a worthy follow-up to their 1972 debut. “Bodhisattva,” “My Old School,” and “King of the World” do the freeway boogie under Fagen's sardonic drawl, and the group's jazz affinities take shape on "Razor Boy" and “Pearl of the Quarter." “Boston Rag" powers up with stellar guitar work by Denny Dias and Skunk Baxter, and “Show Biz Kids” is a hilarious eff-you to Hollywood phonies on the prowl.
