Our Take

Steely Dan, the infamous duo known for their smooth jazz-infused rock, has returned with their latest album "Can't Buy A Thrill."

From the opening track, "Do It Again," you are immediately transported back to the 70s with its funky bassline and clever lyrics. But don't be fooled, this album is not just a nostalgia trip.

Each track is a masterclass in musicianship, with Walter Becker and Donald Fagen showing off their virtuosity on guitar and keys. The production is crisp and polished, giving each song a timeless quality that will have you coming back for more.

One standout track is "Reeling in the Years," with its catchy chorus and infectious guitar riff. It's the perfect blend of pop sensibility and intricate instrumentation that Steely Dan is known for.

But the real highlight of the album is the storytelling. Fagen's lyrics are witty and intelligent, painting vivid pictures of characters and situations that will keep you hooked from start to finish.

Overall, "Can't Buy A Thrill" is a must-listen for any fan of classic rock or jazz fusion. It's a testament to Steely Dan's enduring talent and innovation, and a reminder of why they remain one of the greatest bands of all time. So grab a glass of scotch, sit back, and let Steely Dan take you on a thrilling musical journey.
