Aja’s my favorite Steely Dan album (my better half prefers Goucho). I’d describe the music as contemporary rock.

Gaucho for me. “Babylon Sisters” and a drink is just the prescription for me after a rotten day at work.

Aja is, IMHO, pretty much a perfect album. Every song on it is a classic, fascinating, unforgettable. The title song is a masterpiece.

Gaucho is almost as good. Pretty much every song on it is about activities that are illegal or immoral, which, as I get older, causes me some qualms. Mark Knopfler's guitar solo on Time Out Of Mind is a beautiful puzzle I've never been able to figure out to my satisfaction, though I keep trying.
